e.. www.mouseplanet.com/dtp/wdwguide
f.. travelwithkids.about.com/cs/disneyworld/a/wdwtipskids
g.. Schedule of shows and events while you will be in the parks
http://pages.prodigy.net/stevesoares/index.htm and click on the park links at the top of the page.
h.. The Unofficial Guide to WDW is good, but you might not even need it since you shouldn't have crowds, but it is a must read if you are going during a busy time of year.
i.. We used the Unoffical Guide before and during the whole trip. It has great itineraries "touring plans" for seeing the sights and riding the rides in the most time efficient manner. Detailed explanations of the rides so we could rule out those that might be too scary for our 4 year old (who was the right height most rides.)
j.. We also bought a book with pictures (something "by kids for kids"-- forget the exact name) that we have been looking at with him to get him ready. This also has some of the height requirements for various rides which is useful.
k.. Best guidebook: www.passporter.com (can also get at www.Amazon.com
l.. I highly recommend the Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World by Bob Sehlinger. It's got a lot of great tips (including visiting with kids), and it has good strategies for beating the lines, fitting everything in, etc. (At this time of year, the lines are pretty short, but it's still useful.)

Welcome to Parents Start Here!

Mama Sprout here! As a Mom, I am overwhelmed by all the things out there for and about kids and family! Where to start? What are the most important things needed? What fits our needs the best? What's healthy behavior? What are "normal" bodily functions? In order to make informed decisions, I talk to alot of parents and I've joined online parent groups.

By clicking the various links on the right, you can read compliations of parents' experiences. Please add your comments and share your experiences. I hope by starting here, the information shared will provide guidance and/or answers as we make our way through the endless world called parenthood.
