After 6 trips in the last 5 years, I have finally put together the MUST-HAVE Items for you to take with you on your next trip to Disney World. Traveling with a child who has Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD), Attention-Deficit Hyperactive Disorder (ADHD) or on the Autism Spectrum (ASD), can be overwhelming. I find the best way for EVERYONE to…
UPDATE: Able to join virtual queue and RIDE in May 2021! Updated review below! EDIT: Trip in February 2021, unable to join Virtual Queue to Ride. Triggers: Multiple stages of ride which can cause anxiety and sense of unknown for child, dark moments, bright lights and loud noises. Small drops, car movement. Pro: Sets are incredibly intricate so it is…
I am so glad you are here! This website for me is a labor of love, because it all started within my own family. And what’s more love than a Mom and Dad’s love for their kiddos?! My name is Beth Roberts and I have three amazing and uniquely different kids. One of who just happens to be on the…
We were so excited to have the opportunity to visit SeaWorld Orlando! I read how it was a newly Certified Autism Center and wanted to learn more about what that looks like in person. So we tacked this visit to the beginning of our Mom and Son Disney trip! We were incredibly lucky to have a childhood friend of mine,…
Triggers: n/a Pro: Interactive story telling, able to move around Exit: Due to moving between 3 rooms, exit is possible, but if you feel this is not a good fit for your child, I would just avoid the attraction. This is definitely more of an attraction than a ride! Enchanted Tales with Belle is just as the name would suggest,…
Triggers: Wait can be long before entering large amphitheater type room Pro: Super funny jokes, animations! Exit: Due to length of show, I would suggest if your child wants to opt out last minute, that your entire party (or at least one adult), wait with them through the exit doors. We don’t always hit this attraction on our visits, but…
Triggers: Some up/down movement in car, air blowing, bright colors with movement Pro: Pooh is a well known “safe” cartoon character, slow moving Exit: You can opt out and wait on the other side of the exit gate if the child is 8 years or older If you had asked me initially, I would have said this was a NO-brainer,…
While planning our most recent trip to Disney, I was a little worried about my sensory child after an experience we had last year in Disney. He can get very anxious in line, and sometimes will get upset and not want to ride a ride. Typically no problem, but this trip, I would be traveling with my three kids without…
Triggers: Drops, dark intense Pro: n/a Exit: You can opt out and wait on the other side of the exit gate if the child is 8 years or older Personally, this is always a NO for me. I have ridden it at both Walt Disney World and Disneyland. I do NOT enjoy the feeling of falling, and this is basically…
Triggers: 3D glasses, Bright colors, Fast moving videos, Having to pull a cord and aim the gun at the 3D screen Pro: Fun animations, 3 people per car (only 2 canons) Exit: You can opt out and wait on the other side of the exit gate if the child is 8 years or older This ride perplexes me a little…
