| Quote of the Day |
Mighty few young black women are doin’ domestic work. And I’m glad. That’s why I want my kids to go to school. This one lady told me, “All you people are gettin’ like that.” I said, “I’m glad.” There’s no more gettin’ on their knees.
| —Maggie Holmes, African American domestic worker. As quoted in Working, book 3, by Studs Terkel (1973) |

Disney is the latest company to take advantage of kids travel. I know what you’re thinking, but you are not exactly correct. Disney has always been for children, but not necessarily children under five. If you take a child under five to Disney, you will now find things catered towards them directly. Just last summer Disney hosted children’s entertainers who are geared towards those under the age of five. Groups such as the Wiggles, and the Doodlebops were featured in a concert series. Until then, most of the stuff at Disney was for older children.
There are also hotels and amusement parks who are now specializing in kids travel. There is a Nickelodeon hotel, and many amusement parks are designing sections just for children under five. Six Flags has recently joined in on the kids travel bandwagon, as they will be offering special sections of their park just for the youngest children. Even better, many of these places have optional childcare. That means when you travel with your children, there will be somebody there who can watch or children for you. These people will be prescreened by the park or resort, and will at all times be supervised so that you don’t have to worry about their safety. If you have been thinking of taking a vacation, but have not done so because of the age of your children, you will soon find you have more options for kids travel that you ever imagined.
