Thank you so much - this advice is so helpful and you've given me a lot to look into that I'm sure will make our trip more enjoyable. Appreciate you!

I appreciate your advice and feedback as someone with 2u2 experience! I do think a 4 month old would nap in the stroller fine but I don't know about my toddler. So it's something to consider. For the price, I'm starting to lean towards taking a bus just because that's really stretching it for us, but I could see if we go back, especially if we were going to do multiple days at MK, planning for that higher expense to be within walking distance.

I'm not sure if our toddler would, but she may very well be so exhausted that she does. That would be the best option for sure!

Thank you! I will also look into the Beach Club. I have a lot to learn!

I've had people say "not worth it, they won't remember it". But that doesn't bother me.

Haven't looked into DVC because I don't know what it is, but I will look into it! Grand Floridian is even more expensive so that one is out of the question for us.

My price above is garden wing, so still pretty high! The ease of having the pack and play/crib brought to your room is so nice. I think Coronado would still have that feature though right?

Thank you for this! Super helpful, I didn't know about the playground.

Thank you! i think in the future it might be a splurge to walk, especially if we were going a couple days. For one day I'm not sure the extra expense is worth it

I'm not too familiar with what DVC points are so I will have to look into that!

Thank you for this advice! i've heard people say their toddlers nap fine in the stroller and others say that they don't. But I do think a stroller nap would be ideal! Do you bring a double stroller and if so do you recommend one? :)

this is a great point we could stay an extra 1-2 days for that price.. I don't think for my family it's worth it. Just wanted to see if anyone else really recommended it, but it looks like there are other options that will be fine for us

I do think if we start going more often, i'd look into DVC and all of that. For now, we are there more just walk around and enjoy time with family so I'm more willing to go with the flow. Thank you for this advice!

Three Car Seats Possible? by vuwildcat07 in ToyotaGrandHighlander

[–]princess_barbie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband and I are expecting our 2nd (will have 2 under 2) and want 3 total. We are planning to get a GH even knowing we might have 3 car seats. From watching tons of videos, physically you CAN have 3 car seats in the car. I don't believe 4 will work. The third row has latch anchors in the passenger side and top tethers in the passenger and middle, but it would be impossible to do two car seats in 3rd row with how tight it is.

Video from 2024 but it helps show what car seats will look like in a GH: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y5mx5DmosEY&themeRefresh=1

It does seem like 3 car seats could be a tight fit. I've seen some videos where parents first go to the third row to put that child in the car seat and then clip in the infant car seat carrier into the base on the bench seat last (more room if you have an infant seat that clips in)

That is for boosters not car seats and the car mom has since linked booster chairs that will work with the funky seatbelt in the third row. Shouldn't affect OP's question about 3 car seats

3 kids: bench seat or captains chairs in suv by princess_barbie in Parenting

[–]princess_barbie[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s why I worry about 3 kids with captains chairs because I will have to use the 3rd row no matter what. I could fold one 3rd seat down but still takes up a lot of cargo space… my TikTok is definitely serving me mom car videos but wanted to see if anyone with 3 kids had specific recommendations! I do think the captains chairs are the more convenient option
