This week we are answering a listener email asking about going to the parks with young children, and we’ve brought on Jessica Sanders, author of “Disneyland On Any Budget: Money Saving Tips From The Happiest Blog On Earth”, to help us talk about some tips to help out with these trips. From baby care and nursing to eating and emergencies, we’ll talk about the things we’ve learned first-hand about taking our infants and toddlers to the parks.

In the news this week, Disney is set to release a new game and multimedia box for kids, Magic Kingdom gets a unique dining plan option, Disney is prominently represented at this year’s Golden Globes, a new Walt Disney World ticket option for Florida residents hints at the Avatar grand opening at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, and much more.

We also bring back the All About the Mouseketeer Roll Call this week! If you would like to become an official All About the Mouseketeer, it’s simple! Just send us an email to podcast@aatmcentral.com and tell us who you are and where you’re from.

All of this and much more right here on the All About the Mouse Disney Podcast – Your weekly dose of Disney magic and mayhem!
