Tree Frog
Nope. It’s not a toy. That’s a little tree frog I found hanging out at Disney Coronado Springs Resort on the balcony near our room. Isn’t he cute? Delicious Baby’s Photo Friday always gives me the chance to look through my goofiest photos. You should head over there and look at all the posted photos. They’re very cool. Also, the bloggers who post them love it when you leave a comment letting them know you were there. (wink:)
Disney Give a Day. Get a Day.
Yesterday I was talking to a friend who is taking her family to Disney World later this year. I was surprised to learn that she had not heard about Disney’s Give a Day, Get a Disney Day promotion.
My family and I have been lucky enough to head to Disney World a few times in the last 10 years, and when I heard about this opportunity, I immediately went to my computer and signed all five of us up to walk dogs at the Humane Society nearby. We love dogs, we love Disney. Everyone’s a winner!
When I found out my friend, who is much better at volunteering than I am, hadn’t heard about it, I was surprised, and realized that if she didn’t know, then maybe you don’t either. So here are the details in case you are interested. Personally, I don’t know how you could pass it up!
Promotion Details
You can get all the details at the Disney Give a Day, Get a Day site, but basically, it goes like this.
When you get to the site, you enter your zip code and what kind of volunteer opportunities you are interested in. There are tons. I saw dog walking, reading with kids, working in thrift stores, delivering meals to the elderly and way to many others to list here.
Kids as young as six are eligible to participate.
Each person qualifies for a one day free pass to Disney World or Disney Land. Only one free pass per person. They are non-transferable. (Dang, because I would totally steal one from my youngest son. He doesn’t care about Disney.)
Passes must be redeemed by December 31, 2010.
One million people are eligible to participate. Last time I looked, more than 600,000 people had already signed up and that was a few weeks ago, so if you think you will be able to get to Disney before then, hop on it!

I didn’t know about the limit on 1,000,000 people. Thanks for sharing. So did you already get the pass from your volunteer? We sign up for our volunteer in April. Well, hope there will still be some tickets left!
Amy,
One you schedule your time, you should be able to register and be counted. You should be able to do that now. If not, maybe you should choose something else.
