My DH is incredulous at the amount of time I've spent in front of the computer since we made the decision to do Disney next summer, but I can't help it - I'm a total planner!
We are going the end of May/beginning of June, and if anyone is interested, I'm starting a Disney Y.E.S. Youth Group for those who will be at WDW on June 3. If you have kids in grades K-2 (or 1-5, depending on which course we decide to take) who like to learn while having fun AND you want to save money on your Disney themepark tickets, sign up!
We need a minimum of 10 students to qualify and attend a class. Also, there can only be one chaperone for every five students during the class, so keep that in mind. If you feel you really NEED to be there with your child/children as a chaperone during the class, please state this in a post so we can take it into consideration when deciding who will be chaperoning. (For example if you have a child with special needs or a child who is very shy, you may feel more comfortable to be with them during the class.)

Our two course possibilities (more info on the program website):
How Things Move: Kindergarten 2nd Grade Discover the principles of how things move. This program helps young learners understand how the physical sciences help power favorite Theme Park attractions.
Synergy in Science: 1st 5th Grade Take an in-depth exploration of the interaction between creativity and technology. By investigating technologies at work in Epcot® attractions, students discover the "magic" behind entertainment technology and its application to daily life.
Tickets
You can purchase VERY DISCOUNTED themepark tickets when taking part in a Disney Y.E.S. program. For every one paying student taking part in a class, one adult may also purchase a discounted Disney Y.E.S themepark ticket at the student price. I believe the ticket prices for the Y.E.S. programs are going up in September, so it would be great to have a class confirmed and our tickets purchased by then. The ticket choices are 1 park per day, park hoppers, or premium which includes park hopping/water parks/and Disney Quest
