There has been a change of plans this year. Disney has changed their rules for their Youth Education Programs. According to them we do not fit the profile for their program and they suggested that we do it a different way. Unfortunately that way didn’t work out either because they do not offer the classes that way during November and December. We have tried to make this work and it just isn’t working this year.
HOWEVER, we have teamed up with Universal Studios in Florida and they are working with us. We will have a great program. They offer the education classes and are excited to be working with us. We are working on 3 possible classes: Behind the Adventure Tour (enjoy front of the line access at participating attractions, behind the scenes experiences and more from Islands of Adventure), Culinary Arts (students are taught basic food prep principles, culinary techniques and more) and Storytelling: It Starts with a Hero (kids learn key components of storytelling including character framing and development).
I know you all have been waiting to hear about what we are doing. We are almost finished finalizing our plans. The dates are tentatively 12/5-12/10/16.
We will have discounted room and ticket packages along with just ticket packages. This is open to all kids, not just homeschool children. Parents are allowed to attend the classes (for free) with their child(ren). We just cannot have more adults than kids (we must have at least 1 less adult than children). All classes are subject to minimum requirements too.
When will you know ticketing and package pricing? We are planning to come and will have two 9 year olds. All three classes sound awesome. We will more than likely be ticket only purchasers because we will stay in our RV. Thanks
We are waiting on Universal to finalize our requests. Should hopefully be in the next week or two. I hope you all will be able to make it. Keep an eye on the site – as soon as it is finalized I will post all the info.
Lisa, we have ticket pricing now. E-mail me and I will be glad to give you the pricing. Tabitha@pixievacations.com
