Greetings fellow Mouse Fans!

Large families rejoice! Disney is FINALLY building a new resort with you in mind. Disney’s Art of Animation Resort, a Value Resort set to open in 2012, will feature 2,000 rooms. 1,120 of these rooms will be suites that sleep up to six people, similar to the Family Suites at All Star Music. The remaining 864 rooms will be traditional hotel rooms. 

The resort is being built on 65 acres across from Pop Century. The land was originally intended to be Phase II of Pop Century. The resort will be divided into four sections with themes based on Disney animated classics - The Little Mermaid, The Lion King, Cars, and Finding Nemo.

Be well and make magic wherever you go!

Now back to my coverage of the Disney Dream… Up next - the Oceaneer’s Lab! The Oceaneer’s Lab is for kids ages 3 - 10 and is connected to the Oceaneer’s Club by a workshop and library where kids can conduct experiments, cook and find other ways to get their hands dirty! The main hall features a stage can both watch and perform. Much like Crush in the Oceaneer’s Club, Stitch appears in the Lab’s main hall and interacts in real-time with the kids. Then there are studios where kids can learn and try their hands at animation, crafts, music, video games and a place to kick back and watch a movie.

Up next - Edge for the Tween set!

Be well and make magic wherever you go!

The youngest cruisers have a space to call their own on Deck 5 - the It’s a Small World Nursery. This nursery provides child care for children from 3 months - 3 years for an additional fee. The nursery’s decor was inspired by the original Disneyland attraction, and is divided in to three areas. One area where your child can adjust to the nursery before choosing an activity, the main play area with activities and toys and a quiet area for naps. Parents are asked to provide bottles, formula, baby food, diapers, etc for their child’s stay as well as any blanket/lovie/pacifier that may be needed for nap time.
