It's the last official day of school for the Gibbs Family Academy! (Although, as a homeschooling family we try to create a lifestyle of learning that goes beyond the school calendar or classroom walls.) In honor of that momentous occasion, I'd like to share a photo from our visit to Disney's Homeschool Days in 2010. This is a pic of the stage setup for our Homeschool Days presentation. The program centered on the arts, which was a big draw for this creative family! We heard from executives and experts in areas including costume design, performing arts, and design/construction. We learned the story behind those cool ovens in Via Napoli and listened as an Imagineer told us how she worked her way up into that position and gave some insight to some of the projects on which she had worked. All fascinating stuff!
This year's Disney Homeschool Days presentation will be on October 25. Not only does Disney offer some excellent educational programs to complement your visit, but they also offer great discounts on tickets--and ticket discounts are very rare at WDW! If you're a homeschooling family,

Thinking of doing this in October but hesitant to lock in if Fall free dining is offered in October. Do these tend to book up or do I have time to weigh my options?
ReplyDeletePeople are catching on to the educational programs, so many of them do fill up because they limit group size. However, Homeschool Days is a lot more flexible on its capacity, since the included program is typically in a large theater. That said, the ticket deals are so much better for Homeschool Days that this would, in most cases, be a better deal than free dining. And there's usually some sort of room-only discount offered at that time too. Since your room is booked separately from the homeschool days tickets, you can combine discounts.
ReplyDeleteTerrific! Thanks for your perspective on this, it helps.
