What REALLY happens at Disney Social Media Moms Celebration
When the email invite arrived in my inbox at the end of March, I was speechless. Since I started blogging, I heard about the Disney Social Media Moms Celebration in Walt Disney World and I dreamed of being invited one day!
I searched everywhere for information. I knew the event would be unbelievable, but I wanted details! What happened in previous years? What do attendees do? What’s included? I couldn’t find anything that gave me what I wanted. So now, as an attendee, I’m sharing it with you: day-by-day, minute by minute.
Kid’s Travel Activity Kit
Take our toddler son on a plane?!? It was something that my husband and I wanted to avoid. My six-year-old daughter, no problem. But my son!?! No way! The good news is that we made it.

Travel Snacks for Kids
Picture this: You’re on an airplane somewhere over Texas. Your kids are happy as can be until one tells you that she is hungry. Your toddler son grunts in agreement. The problem is, you have no food on you. Suddently, your once happy children transform into screaming, “hangry” demons. You begrudgingly hand over $8 to the flight attendant who gives you a box of crackers, raisins, and cheese.
I’ve learned that if my kids are eating, they’re happy. A little bit of hunger can push a bored child over the edge. While traveling, it is very difficult to find healthy and portable kid food. Especially items not loaded with sugar. I’ve found that sugar crashes are often even worse than a little bit of the “hangries.”
