All Walt Disney World resorts have activities for kids but the Polynesian seems to be popular with families for two reasons. One is the transportation makes it easy to spend less time getting in and out of the parks, and the second reason is because of all the activities that the Polynesian has to offer kids.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
For those staying concierge you will find that the lounge is very kid friendly. It has a kids table with snacks and smaller chairs over near the TV that plays Disney movies during lounge hours.<\/p>\n I will separate all the activities into two catagories, Free and Pay. You will find that the “free” list is longer than the “pay” list.<\/p>\n On the next page<\/strong> is a list of activities at the Polynesian.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Free Activities:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n <\/span> <\/ul>\n Magic Kingdom Fireworks<\/span> <\/strong>from the beach at 10:00 p.m. (check for seasonal time changes)<\/p>\n Jogging<\/span><\/p>\n For joggers there is a map to do a mile run.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Pay Activities:<\/strong><\/span> Cost is $11.50 an hour per child buffet dinner 12:00 PM- 4:00 PM.

<\/a>I have been to the Polynesian many times as just a couple and my last few visits were with a child. We also have traveled with families that have multiple kids from young to teenage so I have gotten feedback from what they enjoy about the Polynesian.<\/p>\n\n
<\/a>Hula Dancing Lessons are at the front of the lobby Monday – Saturday at 3:45 p.m.<\/li>\n<\/a>Daily Activities held at the volcano pool, GCH and Moana Mickey’ Fun Hut (check for days and time when you arrive). It includes:<\/p>\n\n
<\/a>
Electric Water Pageant <\/span><\/strong>from the beach at 9:00 p.m. This show was originally created for the opening celebration of the Polynesian in 1971. This is why the first showing every night is at the beach of the Polynesian. There is a special fireworks and Polynesian only showing of the pageant on the 4th of July.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>The Polynesian pools are a great place for kids and adults to have fun and the Polyensian has some of the best beaches at Disney World but make sure to stay out of and away from the water. There are warnings of bacteria <\/a>and Aligators have been spotted in the water and on the beach. It is not a good idea for anyone especially kids to be in the water even a few inches.<\/p>\n <\/ul>\n
Children’s Fishing Excursions<\/span> for kids 6-12 $28.16 per child for a guided 1 hour trip.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/a>Do you need an evening without the kids or maybe you just want your kids to have a night away from you to have some fun on their own?

The inside is al decorated like Neverland including Skull Rock and a Pirate ship. Inside has arcade games, <\/a>Disney movies, arts and crafts and dinner show. Food buffet includes peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, pizza, hotdogs, chicken strips, macaroni and cheese, fruit, and ice cream. Fro noon to 4:00 PM you can visit the Neverland Club with your kids to do the activities for free as long as a parent is with the child. This is a good way to check it out and have your kids see what it is like.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/a>The dinner is served from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM. Kids 4-12. Hours are from 4:00 p.m. to midnight. There are some snacks until 10:00 PM.<\/p>\n<\/a>included (minimum of $23.00 for each child). Reservations are required call 407-WDW-DINE and for special dietary needs call <\/a>
Mona Mickey’s Arcade<\/span> is located in the GCH 7:00 AM – Midnight.<\/p>\n<\/a>Guests staying at a Walt Disney World Owned and Operated Resort who booked their stay through Walt Disney World Travel Company will receive one (1) time play card per packet. After the first swipe of a game the 30 minutes starts. It will only activate one game at a time and there is a 60 second time between games before it will work again. The 60 seconds starts when the game you are playing is finished.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/a>Mickey and friends Character Breakfast<\/span> (NOW WITH LILO AND STITCH) will let you wake up to a family-style breakfast hosted by Mickey Mouse and his Disney character friends at ‘Ohana Feast<\/span>.

It is at the Grand Floridian Spa building but the building is about half way between the Polynesian and the Grand Floridian. Some Polynesian rooms are even closer to it than some Grand Floridian rooms. Also since there is no hot tub at the Polynesian’s pools the spa hot tub is available to Polynesian resort guests.<\/p>\n<\/a>The Polynesian Mikala Canoe Club<\/span> (marina) offers as of February 2007.
