    How to Homeschool with Disney

    May 26, 2020 /

    Since Covid ruined our real vacation plans (originally posted Spring 2020), we had a Disney staycation last week. I’ve already posted about all of the amazing meals and theme nights we had, (see here) but we also had a week full of Disney activities for our homeschooling! The world of Disney gives us a wealth of literary, art, history, science and math homeschooling activities. Of course I consulted Pinterest for some inspiration and there ain’t a whole lot out there. One of the only Pins I found was from Thesparrowshome.com. She had some great ideas to get me started. Below are some of the ideas I used from The Sparrow’s…

    Ohana means Family- Remembering the Magic of the Polynesian Resort

    May 23, 2020 /

    Ohana means family. It is also an amazing restaurant at the Polynesian Resort in Walt Disney World. One of our favorite Disney memories is dining here in 2017. When Covid forced us to have a staycation, we chose to recreate this meal as our Grand Finale to “Disney at Home Week”. Originally posted Spring 2020 Some links may be affiliate links. By clicking on them and/or making a purchase, I may make a small commission at no extra cost to you. While the Ohana restaurant serves breakfast and dinner, we have only dined there for dinner.

Even though it sometimes gets a bad wrap as the educational or boring park, it has a lot of the best food in all of Walt Disney World. Had I been feeling more adventurous I would’ve tackled fish n’ chips or the fanciest of French food for our Epcot dinner…but we’re in month two of quarantine and…

Our homeschooling lessons are also inspired by Disney! For the sake of readability and organization I am going to do a separate post on all of our Disney homeschooling activities.

    Since we can’t go to Disney in person I am bringing the Disney magic home to us! (Originally posted Spring 2020, updated 2025) After our super successful brunch we “traveled” to Disney Springs for dinner to eat at Chicken Guy. See my awesome & realistic decor below: Why Chicken Guy? My oldest has been obsessed with Guy Fieri for a very long time. He was so looking forward to going to his restaurant during our trip to Disney. It wasn’t even in our original plan but he was so insistent that we made room in the schedule. We’ve even watched YouTube videos reviewing the menu items! The Menu Luckily for…
