I’m re-creating a different WDW ride for my kids every Saturday morning. After they go to bed Friday night, I prepare the house. Last week was It’s a Small World. This Saturday is TSMM. And then Jungle Cruise the following week.

My kids are 2 and 4 so the “recreation” doesn’t have to be exact. For jungle cruise (which I did this past Saturday because I couldn’t find anough Toy Story toys for TSM), I set up stuffed animals around the house, pulled the kids around on a Thomas the train toy attached to a jump rope, and told cheesy jokes as we passed each animal. I added some effects like a spray bottle with water as we passed the elephants and a stuffed animal crocodile that I tossed at them from the “water”. I confess it took me about an hour to write the script and my four year old only got half the jokes (DW, however, liked the jokes so that made it worth the time invested).

What lucky kids! It sounds hilarious, and fun to do. I hope you got some of it on video for posterity.

This is amazing! We are going to copy! DS and DD (and I) will love this. DW will be a good sport and participate.

Another fun idea…let your kids set up a movie theater experience at your house…
This is from a Facebook friend…
Julia surprised us all by treating us to a family movie night to watch Onward. She spent hours turning our living room into a movie theater called HOMESTEAD CINEMA. She made signs, tickets, a seating chart, a ticket stand, gift cards, popcorn, free waters, and even treats and blankets for the pets! My favorite part was the meet and greet with a cast member at the end! We got to meet Guinevere) ! (Love that this break gives her time to be creative and that the big sister and parents just went with it 100%)

More celebrity guests join “The Disney Family Singalong,” hosted by Ryan Seacrest, for a night of magic and music on THURSDAY, APRIL 16 (8:00-9:00 p.m. EDT), on ABC. The nationwide singalong event will feature celebrities and their families as they take on their favorite Disney tunes from their homes.

Very enjoyable, but I struggled with the actual singalong part because I kept choking up. Also couldn’t help but notice many lines ironic to the current situation.

Ok there is a series of videos on you tube called “Treadmill series” by runtheimpossible. I did the magic kingdom one tonight and it was pretty fun!!! Maybe blast your own disney music and watch it on mute but the pace was just right for me and it was so fun to see the park!

We had a HEA dessert party last night at home. Put out a variety of desserts into mini-cupcake cups and mini-ice cream cones for the kids. They selected a bunch and then we went down to the basement, turned out the lights, sat close to the tv, and watched WDW’s recent post of the HEA show.
Afterward DD4 said … this makes me want to go to Disney World even more!

Thanks. It was fun.
I have also been doing a mock Disney ride for the kids every Saturday morning the past 6 weeks. This week was my version of Toy Story Mania. I pulled them around the house on a Thomas the Train attached to a jump rope. Each room featured a different character with toys set up and a game to play. Jessie’s round up was knocking down a stack of cups with a water spray bottle, Buzz’ buckets was tossing balls into buckets, Slinky Dog’s speed shooter was throwing balls into basketball hoops, etc.
