Are you looking for that perfect getaway this winter? Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida may just be your ticket. Here are my top 10 "hot tips" for warming up with Mickey this winter.

1. Value Season Rates. Keep your wallet warm with rock-bottom prices at Disney resort hotels from early January through mid-February, which is also a period of lower attendance (and fewer crowds).

2. Year of a Million Dreams Celebration. Come celebrate latest hoopla, see new attractions like "Finding Nemo--The Musical" and Laugh Floor Comedy Club, and maybe even win one of the million "dreams" that Disney is awarding.

3. Golf! Enjoy Walt Disney World's 99 holes of championship golf. Greens fees include transportation to and from your Disney resort. Or try your hand at miniature golf at Disney's Winter Summerland or Fantasia Gardens, each with two 18-hole courses.

4. Disney's free, on-site transportation. Once you've checked into your Disney resort (or campsite), buses, boats and monorails can take you anywhere you want to go on Disney property.

5. The kids (and grandkids). Few places better than Walt Disney World for family togetherness and warm smiles.

6. Annual Pass and AAA Discounts. These hot, money-saving deals are more widely available in this year of decreased travel, even for Peak Season vacationers.

7. Winter cruise discounts. This is usually a great time to sail -- prices are lower and the risk of bad weather is minimal. Why not add a tropical Disney cruise onto your winter Disney vacation?

8. Gas. Prices are gradually coming down.

9. Disney's own Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground. One of America's top-rated campgrounds is just across the water from Disney's Magic Kingdom. Location, location, location.

10. It just feels great! Few destinations are cleaner, friendlier, or safer than Walt Disney World. Be prepared to leave your frown (and worries) at the door.

Two Wonderful Project and Picture Books For Your Kids

As parents it's very difficult for us to find just the right project and picture book for our kids especially when they are young. If we buy one which is too complicated, all they do is end up scribbling while coloring in the scene, or they get frustrated because they can't solve the puzzles. That's why there is one book series that I really love and enjoy, and think it is just great for kids.

The book series is by Disney Pixar, and it represents the "Incredibles" which, if you recall, are the cartoon characters that have superpowers, and come to the rescue in times of chaos and crisis. If you think this book series might be for you, let me give you the name of two of the best books in the series;

1.)  "Super Write N' Wipe," Part of the Incredible Series by Disney Pixar, by Disney Enterprises, Inc.; printed by Innovage; 2006.

This is an extremely and brilliantly done children's book, one which will give your kids hours of fun and interesting thoughts. There is a work find, and some word puzzles, as well as a secret code that is done by easy math problems and a numbers game. There are four main characters in this cartoon book.

2.)  "Super Color N' Wipe," Part of the Incredible Series by Disney Pixar, by Disney Enterprises, Inc.; printed by Innovage; 2006.

This is a brilliant companion to the children's book above, this color book challenges your child to match colors and draw the main characters just like they are in the cartoon movie. Your child can color both characters and background. I hope you will get as much enjoyment out of these books as our family has. Please consider all this.

The Wonderful World of Disney Movies

Isn't the imagination a wonderful thing? Walt Disney and his brother Roy Disney must have had imaginations second to none as they build this vast empire we know as Disney. The wonderful world of Disney Movies is accessible to young and old alike and each new movie or song that they do rekindles the child in all of us.

Growing up, I loved Disney. From Donald Duck to Mary Poppins, I spent hours watching and rewatching all the Disney Classics. In fact Disney is so popular that the organization rewrote a lot of the major fairy tales and.made them into animated movies. Did you know that the in the original Sleeping Beauty there were actually twelve good fairies, but in the Disney version there are only three? The original Cinderella story is also quite different to the Disney one, but everyone seems to know the Disney one best.

Two other stories that were changed a great deal by Disney when they were made into movies were Beauty and the Beast and The Little Mermaid. In fact the original story of The Little Mermaid has a very sad ending, but true to Disney tradition, everything has to have a happy ending.

The happy endings are perhaps what makes the wonderful world of Disney movies so endearing and timeless. Everybody loves a happy ending, or a feel good film to take our minds off of all of our daily worries. There is perhaps nothing better than settling down to watch a Disney classic for the umpteenth time to bring back those childhood memories. When Disney brings out a new release, people flock to see them, because they know that they will always come out feeling happier than when they went in.

Some adults I know tell me they never watch Disney anymore, as the endings are always so predictable and the stories are too family orientated, but I think in secret these people enjoy Disney just as much as everyone else, but just don't want to admit it.

The wonderful world of Disney movies is a world wide phenomenon and there is practically nobody that I know who hasn't enjoyed Disney offerings sometime in their lives. The latest offering the Princess and the Frog is another classic example of how the original story is rewritten. In the Disney version, the so called princess (who isn't really a princess) turns into a frog when she kisses him. In a decades time, guaranteed most children won't even remember the original version. That is the power that the Disney Empire has had on all of us.
