Farewell, 2019! Hello, 2020!
Oh, 2019 you were a good one! Looking back I see how much growth has happened this past year. Sometimes it’s hard to see change when we’re in the thick of it just pushing through the daily grind, but goodness, I see it now. I promise I won’t get too sappy, but I look back on 2019 and I truly smile. I took a leap of faith and decided to relaunch this blog, and boy, am I so glad I did! Grace, Giggles & Naptime saw a lot of growth this past year and I was able to bless my family with some pretty cool experiences because of it! 2019…

A Beginner’s Guide to Disney’s Animal Kingdom with Preschoolers
Continuing with our “Beginner’s Guide to Walt Disney World” series, we are hopping over to Disney’s Animal Kingdom today! In this post you will find the best rides & attractions here for the preschooler crowd. Truth be told, Animal Kingdom is the one park we haven’t spent a ton of time in – until our most recent trip, that is!

We’ve recently switched up our park day plans as we’ve come to realize just how many amazing things there are to…

5 Reasons to Stay at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
We just returned home from an amazing end-of-summer getaway at Walt Disney World. This was our second trip to The Most Magical Place on Earth this year, but our first time staying at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort. And I just have to say – wow!
