I’m no scientist, but after 13 Disney cruises with I’m no scientist, but after 13 Disney cruises with our little one, I’m pretty sure there’s something to this 😂🚢✨

The fresh ocean air, unlimited ice cream and watching your child experience pure magic has to count for something, right?

Road trips with toddlers can feel intimidating... Road trips with toddlers can feel intimidating... but they don’t have to be! 🚗

We just took an 11-hour family road trip with CJ, and here are some of the tips that made our travel day easier! Some of them are practical, some are survival tactics, and one of them might be a little controversial 😅

The biggest thing we’ve learned? You just need a few good strategies, lots of snacks and realistic expectations. And an iPad with kid-size headphones 🤣

One thing that surprises people is that I usually sit in the back with CJ. Since she’s our only child, it makes it so much easier to hand her snacks, swap out toys, help with activities, and keep things moving without constant stops.

Which tip do you agree with most?

And if you’re a parent, what’s your #1 road trip hack? 👇

Save this for your next family road trip and send it to a parent who needs it!

“Why do you keep taking her? She’s too little to r “Why do you keep taking her? She’s too little to remember it anyway…” 🥺✨

But here’s the thing about traveling with little ones… you’re not taking the same baby twice.

✨ The baby who waved at the princesses on her first cruise is now the toddler running to hug them, wearing her favorite princess dresses.

✨ The little girl who napped through dinner is now dancing at the deck parties and staying up to watch the fireworks.

✨ The baby who didn’t like the sand now asks when we can go back to the beach on Castaway Cay again.

Every trip becomes part of who they are, even if they don’t remember every detail later. Each stage has been different, and every trip we’ve taken is a memory we’ll cherish forever - even if she won’t remember it.

Childhood changes fast, and each season doesn’t last forever - so yes, we’ll keep taking her ✨

This was the hotel we stayed at the night before o This was the hotel we stayed at the night before our Disney cruise from Fort Lauderdale, and we absolutely loved it! 🤩

Highlights for us were the beautiful room, the complimentary (and completely seamless) shuttle to the port, and the view of our cruise ship right from our room 🚢

There were actually TWO Disney ships in port, so it was really cool getting to see them docked together!

We had such a great stay at the @omnifortlauderdale and would definitely stay here again before another cruise.

One thing we didn’t fully appreciate until we beca One thing we didn’t fully appreciate until we became parents is how thoughtfully designed the Disney Cruise Line staterooms are for families with babies! 👶

Before having our daughter, we had already sailed with Disney many times (we’ve been on 30+ cruises)… but now we’ve done 13 cruises with her, and these are some of the little room features that have made family vacations easier!

Things like:
• privacy curtains for naps
• bathtubs in most rooms
• pack & plays, bedrails, diaper genies & bottle warmers/sterilizers available upon request
• even homemade baby food through room service 🥣
• a good amount of storage, including room for the suitcases under the bed (and the stroller if yours folds up small - which is the kind you want to bring!)

None of these things may seem huge on their own… but together they make a big difference when traveling with a baby or toddler! These are the kinds of details that help vacations feel less stressful and more magical ✨

Which feature would help YOUR family the most? 💭

We met on a Disney Cruise and had our wedding at C We met on a Disney Cruise and had our wedding at Castaway Cay (Disney’s private island), so bringing our little girl here is truly a dream come true 💕

Having both grown up in Disney-loving families and then helping thousands of families plan their vacations, we know the joy of watching those moments turn into lifelong memories… but experiencing it as parents adds a whole new layer of magic.

Nothing compares to seeing the magic through her eyes, from her excitement meeting the characters to the simple moments playing on the beach. These are the memories we’ll hold onto forever 🤍

We never would have believed this could be our lif We never would have believed this could be our life…

Somewhere along the way, our “normal life” turned into planning trips, capturing moments, making memories, and calling it work ✈️ 

What I really mean by this is:
we get to share our family adventures, figure out the tips and tricks that actually make a difference, and help other families plan trips of their own.

Because we know how overwhelming it can feel to plan that first cruise, choose the right ship and stateroom for your family, and figure out what to pack with little ones.

If we can make it easier for even one family to take that trip and make those memories, it’s all worth it!

And the fact that we get to experience all of this with our own family… we don’t take a single second of it for granted 🥹

Sometimes all it takes is having something magical Sometimes all it takes is having something magical on the calendar ✨

A Disney Cruise brings a sense of excitement before you even step onboard. Then once you’re there, it’s family time, incredible shows, unlimited food, character moments, ocean views and memories you’ll talk about for years.

There’s something special about stepping away from the routine and making time for joy together 🚢✨

Who else gets happier the second a cruise is booked? 👀

Taking a baby to Disney World doesn’t have to feel Taking a baby to Disney World doesn’t have to feel overwhelming ✨

A little planning, lower expectations and knowing where/when to take breaks can make a huge difference. Some of our favorite Disney memories have been from the baby years with our daughter! 

Remember - you do not need to do it all to have an amazing trip. Sometimes the slow moments end up being the most magical, and the unplanned ones end up being the ones you remember most 🥹
