Thinking of taking my two girls down for either Halloween or Christmas, but I’m not sure which is better. Opinions? We’d do the parties. Daughters will be 9 and 6.
Both if you can have the girls out of school for a little over a week. Arrival 10/31 for last Halloween party (Wed) and stay until 11/9 (Sat) for first Christmas party. The first Christmas party is 11/8. Which holiday do you like best? If trick or treating is iffy safety-wise in your neighborhood or if weather and crowds are a consideration again Halloween would be better than Christmas.
I saw on someone’s trip that posted the day after Halloween they had up decorations.Although the first Xmas party is early November, does that mean that the parks and resorts are fully decorated for Christmas? I would think if you want the full effect of Christmas, you want all the decorations with it.
Unfortunately I can’t do a whole week during school. I wish!Both if you can have the girls out of school for a little over a week.

I would do the Halloween. Tricker or treat is fun at the parks the begging of the parade is a cant miss. And the fireworks are really good ( both party the fireworks are really good)Thinking of taking my two girls down for either Halloween or Christmas, but I’m not sure which is better. Opinions?

I wish I knew the school schedule for next year!This Oct will be our 3rd time during Halloween. We love it! It’s still very much pool weather but not sweltering. Plus, we have a Fall break that we can utilize so the kids only miss a couple days of school.
Schools here have their schedules approved 1-/2 to 2 years in advance.I wish I knew the school schedule for next year!

Private school. I called and they don’t have it available yet. Hoping to catch a long weekend somewhere.Surprised your district doesn’t have it posted already. Unless you do a private school and hey don’t have it out yet.
Edit: didn’t see Momo’s Post

No, but my second grader is behind this year and struggles with her adhd. I don’t want her to get too far behind next year because of time off. I’m willing to do a couple days of missed school, but hoping for a long weekend to extend the trip!Is the school really going to throw a tantrum if you take your kids out for a few days? Nothing their school is going to teach that week in elementary school will be as impact or important as a week with family at Disney World. Do what's best for you and your family. It's pretty terrible if the school would be upset b/c you are giving your kids an amazing and memorable experience.
