Hacking Mom's Perfect Day At Disney   First off, I am not a mom. But I am a dad, and I have an amazing mom and I am surrounded by great moms. Moms are amazing. Shouldn't we go out of our way to give them a day to just take it easy? I had to get into the mindset of a mother - What does a mother want at Disney? Differences abound between meals, attractions, characters, parks, resorts, entertainment, recreation, shopping. From young moms to great-grandmothers, there's a whole bunch of different ways we can celebrate mom on a trip to Disney. So, how do we do it?  I asked a few groups on Facebook to provide me with some motherly advice and here's that I got!   As I discover more interesting tricks and tips for moms Disney trips, I'll add them to my list. You'll be able to find everything on my website: http://TheDisneyHack.com     Thanks to Rebecca for letting me ask my question in the Family Travel Club Facebook group.

Some Star Wars themed hacks from our most recent trip to Disney's Hollywood Studios, on this very special day! #MayTheFourthBeWithYou   It's still a few years before Star Wars Land will open at Disney's Hollywood Studios, but that doesn't mean you can't have a load of Star Wars themed fun now! Here are a few of my favorite hacks!   Jedi Training: Trials of the Temple: https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/entertainment/hollywood-studios/star-wars-jedi-training/ Watch younglings train in the ways of the Force and put their skills to the test against the Dark Sides greatest villains!   Hacks: - Get there EARLY! I cannot stress that enough - You MUST have your kid with you to get them signed up - Return for your show with plenty of time for your kid to get checked in and receive their instructions - This will also determine which of the villains your kid will battle during the show - Don't plan your FastPass+ too close to the showtime - Because this is an outdoor show, it is subject to cancellation due to inclement weather - Make sure you get a PhotoPass card from one of the photographers next to the stage - That being said, get a good spot to take your own pictures/video - Assess your kid and see if they are possibly too old or nervous in front of a crowd - Getting a Star Tours FP+? Get it for the end of the show since you're going to be there anyway   Star Wars: Path of the Jedi: https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/attractions/hollywood-studios/path-of-the-jedi-film/ A 10-minute film retelling the blockbuster Star Wars saga    Hacks: - A great place for anyone in your party who is not comfortable riding a motion simulator like Star Tours to wait - Also a good place to get out of the elements if it's too hot or raining.      Star Wars Launch Bay: https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/attractions/hollywood-studios/star-wars-launch-bay/ Check out movie props from Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, play games, snap photos, screen videos, and greet heroes and villains.   Hacks: - Plan to spend some time there, especially if there's a Star Wars fan in your group - Guests with PhotoPass will get the most out of this experience - Meet Chewie, Kylo Ren and BB-8 (NEW) - Bring something to trade with a Jawa (I hear they like shiny objects, like Tamatoa) - Bring a Fiver ($5) for the penny smasher located just outside the gift shop (No pennies required) - If a Storm Trooper asks you to go with him, do it! (You can thank me later)   Star Wars: A Galactic Spectacular: https://disneyworld.disney.go.com/entertainment/hollywood-studios/star-wars-galactic-spectacular/   Hacks:  - Position yourself in front of or between the projector towers (Follow these guidelines by WDW Prep School: http://wdwprepschool.com/the-best-nighttime-show-and-fireworks-viewing-spots-at-disney-world/) - Use the restroom before the show - Have someone in your group grab a spot while you take the kids on one more ride  - If you're going to hold your kid, put them on your hip and NOT on your shoulders - Get a snack to enjoy while you wait for the show to start     Any Hacks to share?
