Most of the time...
Pretty hard to beat that.
That'll be great. I'm looking forward to RoL one of these days. 2018?
I hope you can make it happen!
That's a great idea! I'm sure Ohana breakfast would be a great sendoff meal.
I've always wanted to eat there so it will be nice to check it out.
I wish I had some words of wisdom for you... Trying to keep a hat on a toddler sometimes is practically impossible. Hopefully, he will spend some time in the stroller. When you are at the parks, you will be in and out of the sun, maybe just plan for some indoor rides mid day? Good Luck!
He's been doing well with riding in the stroller at home so hopefully he'll be fine with that. The canopy should shade him pretty well.
For faces, I like the sunscreen stick. It is easier than paste, I think, at least, and less likely to make a mess, get in eyes, etc. Plus, small and easy to pack in a small bag. Hopefully they still sell it!
We've got some of that!
I also had a sling with a big tail that could be used as a shading device, but that worked better with babies than toddlers. I think some of the current carriers have hood type things, both for shade and head support while napping.
The ones we have don't have anything like that.
I had a similar problem with DD when she was 3. We just tried to keep her in the shade as much as we could, and use the stroller canopy when we were out in the sun. I wonder if a small umbrella would come in handy for shade too (I never tried that, just thinking about it)
I've considered that. I thought of buying
just a small umbrella to throw in the bag that could be used for shade or quick access in the case of the daily sudden July downpours.
I have. I know miles. Just havin' fun with ya.
I figured you could handle the translation better than I. Considering I've never driven in Canada and a Km doesn't mean jack to me.
Hmmm.... My DDs never complained about wearing hats and we always made them.
But... Sunscreen for sure. Find shade as much as possible. One parent can stand in line while the other is with Ryder in the shade or indoors. I know a lot of people don't mind someone coming through the line with a little one due to potty breaks. The stroller idea with the canopy sounds good too. Plan for a mid-day break to get out of the sun. You'll need it anyway.
Hats are a game to him. We put them on, he takes them off. He's stubborn. Can't figure out where that comes from...
I like this idea too. If he's running around by then, you can try to keep the sun off him that way.
But... sunscreen for sure. Don't worry about the hair.
What hair? Our kids look bald until they're about 2.
We had the same problem. In fact, Drew still has a hard time keeping a hat on his head. Shade as much as possible, of course. Otherwise, we figured a baby is cute enough to look good in any condition. So we just slathered sunscreen on Baby Drew's head. Yes, his hair will be a little greasy after that, but you can also make him look like Jack-Jack. He's a baby, he can pull it off. Beats a sunburn.
Yeah, we might have to go this route...
He's just so gosh darned cute. I love the motion of his arms flapping in glee in this one!
Constant motion...
So, you're asking for a "farmer's rain"? That's what we've always called those. (Or Oregon's Spring, Summer and Fall.)
Yeah, something like that. Not the monsoons. We could really use one now... getting pretty dry. One extreme to the other, I tell ya.
Of course they have! That's what Disney plans do.
As you should be! I LOVED the Poly when I stayed there! So convenient for MK commuting. And even if you don't end up at a park at all, the resort itself is so peaceful and beautiful.
Well, we'll be in a park the day we check-in. We won't on the day we check out. I really don't think we'll spend an abundance of time in the resort, but I see our last park day being somewhat low key and it will be nice to be a quick boat or monorail ride away if we want a break or want to go back for Happily Ever After (gosh, it is so hard not to type "Wishes")
I haven't taken a little one to the parks yet. Michelle wants to go for Easter next year and take JP. Sunscreen and stay in as much shade as possible. We just got back Sunday and I have to say DHS has the least amount of shade of all the parks. We roasted on our 2 days there. Duck into the buildings as much as possible.
Definitely. That is the nice thing about all the shops along the streets.
I just now saw your comment about keeping the sun off baby's head. Izzy also was never really into hats, but she did love her stroller with the big canopy, so that helped us a lot.
He's been doing better about riding in the stroller lately so hopefully he'll ride more.
Otherwise, we just tried to duck under cover when we could to avoid tons of direct sun - walking through the shops on Main Street instead of down the street, etc. No idea if this would work in the carrier scenario, but whoever has him could maybe find some sort of large/wide-brimmed hat to wear?
The shops do help. But it is just hard to stay out of the sun in central Florida in the summer!
nd, worst case scenario, have aloe or something handy if there is a burn. One of our trips, Izzy got some burns in spots we missed with the sunscreen (back of neck area), so I had to buy a cooling spray at a gift shop - pricy, but gave her instant relief.
Definitely. We always bring some of this.
