You Can Fill Out Your Own Walt Disney World Madness Bracket

I have a fun activity you can do while you are stuck at home!

You can fill out a bracket for your favorite rides at Disney World for each park. You fill out which is your favorite rides and in the end you have a winner!

I filled one out and this is what mine looks like. This is my OPINION! (Please note that I have not been on The Boneyard, Animation Experience, Maharajah Jungle Trek, Gorilla Falls Trail, Expedition Everest, Conservation Station, Rise of the Resistance, Tower of Terror, Smugglers Run, Rock N’ Roller Coaster, Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Train, Mickey Shorts Theater, Canada Far and Wide, and Disney/Pixar Film Festival.)

The world champion for my bracket was Space Mountain!

Have fun!

My question is what will happen to Epcot’s International Flower and Garden Festival?

Jedi Training

Darth Vader and Kylo Ren!

Jedi Training is a  Star Wars show at Hollywood Studios that you can be a part of and you even get to wear a Jedi robe!  Only kids between the ages of four and twelve are allowed to participate and attempt to complete the Trials of the Temple. 

My little brother fought Darth Vader when he was 4!

To complete the Trials of the Temple, you will be trained as a Jedi and then must fight a Sith with a lightsaber.  The Jedi Masters instruct you how to use your lightsaber and teach you how to fight the Sith.  It’s really fun! 

Get out of my head!

On my last two Disney World trips I had to go against Kylo Ren and last year I had to fight Darth Vader.  Kylo Ren was trying to use the force on me to read my mind! It was scary!  Once everyone is done dueling you take off your Jedi robes and get a badge.  Most recently they gave me a water bottle afterwards, which helps in the summer time.  This is a super fun and exciting activity!

All About the Play Disney Parks App

Okay, let’s be honest!  Not all the rides at Disney World take ten seconds to get on.  Fastpasses can help shorten the wait times, but sometimes you don’t have a Fastpass for a ride.  New rides or rides that are just very popular can take over an hour and it can become boring having to wait.  Trust me, I had to wait over an hour to get on Space Mountain on my last trip. 

The App works in Disney World and Disneyland

I am going to tell you the faster way to let the time fly by.  Downloading the Play Disney Parks App!  This app is free and is full of games.  Most of the games on this app only work in the parks or resorts so use your time wisely!  When I used the Play Disney Parks App on my iPhone (it is also available on Android devices) it helped keep me occupied.  You can also try quizzes or quiz a family member.  The Play Disney Parks App for Space Mountain has secret codes and ship races!  I also used this app while I was waiting to get on Alien Swirling Saucers.  It was super fun playing with my brother!  We took pictures and put on silly glasses and wigs on the pictures.  So if you want the time to pass while you are waiting in line GET THIS APP!


My Favorite Snacks

When you’re at Walt Disney World, they don’t just have good rides, they have good snacks too!  My favorite snack is the ice cream sandwich with Mickey’s face on it.  The Mickey Ice Cream Sandwich has two chocolate wafers and Cookies and Cream ice cream.  My second favorite snack is the Mickey Bar.  The Mickey Bar has frozen vanilla ice cream with a hard chocolate shell on the outside shaped like Mickey’s face and ears!  This is the most popular snack at Walt Disney World. 

The one and only MICKEY BAR!

My third favorite snack is the churro.  The churro comes warm and full of sugar and it comes with a chocolate dipping sauce.  THE CHOCOLATE SAUCE IS AMAZING!! I also like the Mickey pretzel.  It is warm, salty, and buttery.  It also has Mickey’s face. My brother’s favorite is the Minute Maid soft frozen lemonade (the yellow one, not the pink strawberry one).  It’s really good and feels refreshing after being in the Florida sun.  Which is your favorite?

Soft Mickey Pretzels are so delicious
