Birthday Treat?

[digger]

We are going to Disneyworld on 30 MArch, and my son is going to be 8 the next day - I want to make it special - any one got ideas? Never been before so its bound to be great I know. Also we are in a party of 14 aged 5 to 70!

Hi Digger :wave: and :welcome: to the boards. First couple of things that spring to mind are get your son a birthday badge/pin from guest services, this will get him noticed by Disney Characters and Cast Members in the parks. Then maybe consider booking a Character breakfast or Dinner. I would suggest Chef Mickey's at the Contemporary Resort for a boy. You will need to book ahead for a party of 14 so ask if you need any more help or info on doing this. :D

I agree, Chef Mickey's is a great place for a birthday breakfast! He will get a little cake and be sung "Happy Birthday" to!

When you're in one of the shops in the parks, ask one of the Cast Members if they have a special phone call for the birthday boy - when I was there I had a special call from Goofy wishing me happy birthday! Of course, they may do this anyway if they notice his birthday badge/pin.

Welcome to the boards! :wave:

Hi, digger. If you are using the monorail that day ask if he (and you) can ride up front with the driver. It's great fun and he will get a little 'certificate'.

Wow, thanks so much for your help! I have also been told about a boat on the canal - is that worth doing - and also, can I wait to book up the Charactor meal until we get there or should I book before we go?

I agree that Chef Mickeys is a great place to celebrate a birthday. My DD celebrated her 10th birthday at Chef Mickeys back in 2002. You should book your Pritory seating before you go, three months before because they do get packed. I also recomend doing it first thing in the morning and then taking a monerail to MK. My daughter even got to ride in the front with the captin(cant remember what they are called the people who drive it) on her birthday. :) :)
