We love our expedition. It’s big, but I don’t go downtown and primarily use it in my small errand/neighborhood circle and road trips. Plenty of trunk space and we like the bucket seat layout.

How old are your kids? This would drastically impact my Disney strategy! Im the person that has a written out plan - all meals reserved/planned, ride order, departure times, etc. Highly recommend fast pass and rope dropping even though it’s early. We like fast a furious in the morning and then slow paced afternoons when it’s peak crowds. We also enjoy good cocktails and meals in the evenings. Happy to share past itineraries if needed!

I know nothing about Minecraft, but my daughter is obsessed with having this game on her iPad. My husband turned off chat feature etc. but I’m still uneasy. Is this game appropriate for a 1st grader? We limit iPad time to one day per week for specified amount of time.

I find that having bins in rotation helps. Then I put them away where they are out of site/mind for a while and interesting to come back to. For example, one bin might have dinosaurs and some accessories. Another bin might be magnatiles, next one is legos. I think it’s less overwhelming for them to figure out what to play and prevents them from going to the same stuff and getting bored. Oh and my kids love water too….4 year old will sit in empty tub for 45 minutes playing scrubbies with a bit of water in the little scrubby tub. No mess bc it’s isolated in the bath.
