Quote From: babybackerDuring December, my family is going to Disneyland. This year, we are hoping to take my 12 year old niece. Does anyone have any suggestions on traveling with a 12 year old?
you can research ahead of time and begin talking with her about what there is to see/do there. But explain that Disneyworld is so large (I'm guessing, cause I haven't been there) and there is no way you can do all that you'll want to there. On the day you go to the park, every person gets to name the thing they MOST want to see/do while they are there. Then make it your mission to get to every one of those first choices that day. If getting to her 1st choice thing means nobody else gets to do their 2nd choice thing, TUFF! every person in your party gets to pick their one thing. But it has to be something possible to do, so it has to be at the particular disney park you all are visiting that day, etc. If you are going for multiple days, try to follow this procedure at each new park you visit.
