Disney's Pop Century Resort is a delightful place to stay at!  Designed for budget-minded individuals or families, the resort is split up into several sections:  fifties, sixties, seventies, eighties and nineties.  Each section is themed with large Disney character statues and items of the decade.  My favorite section to stay in is the fifties section, which is decorated...

We stayed at Disney's Pop Century Resort in December of 2006. The theming of this hotel is a sort of tour through the decades between 1950 and 1990. So in the 1950s area you have that type of music, larger than life icons, and decor. If you know Disney you know they theme things up like no one else. We were in the 70's section and enjoyed it a lot. Outside our building was an enormous M...

I purchased this book as a joint gift for my 6 year old son and my husband. I thought it would be like the pop-up books I had as a kid that ripped when you opened the page or never folded back up after you looked at them. Boy was I wrong. The workmanship and detail that went into this book, blew me away.Since this book is a complete Guide to the Galaxy, it covers all the Star Wars movies and ev...

Of Walt Disney World's Value Resorts, Pop Century Resort might just be the best of the crop. Themed after the decades of last century from the 1950s to 1990s, the resort features an array of kitschy theming and decor. From giant jukeboxes in the 50s section to a giant Rubix Cube near the 80s, this resort will evoke memories. Don't be surprised to hear a kid ask, "What's an 8-Tr...

Tootsie Pops are great taste.  They have been around for several years where kids and adults alike can enjoy the pleasnt flavors that they have to offer.  However I dont believe they honor the star on the wrapper anymore for free pops which they used to.  They come availalbe in about 5 assorted flavors so you are bound to find one you enjoy.  One thing i dont like about thes...

We stayed at the  Disney Pop Century Resort in 2005 with my son and his family.  We wanted to stay on the Disney properties for the convenience.  When we arrived at the Resort we checked in at the front desk.  The resort is well staffed so you won't have to wait long to check in.  We gave them our information and we received two lanyards and Disney cards w...

Pop Century Resort is our resort of choice when staying in the Walt Disney World Resort. We love the theme most of all. Each building is designed to represent a decade between the 1960's to the 1990's, complete with music from that era playing on a loud speaker. The resort is the newest of the value resorts and is one of the most affordable places to stay at in Disney World with prices ...

I have stayed at this resort many times in the past few years, with my most recent trip being in May of 2006. This is such a fun resort!! The theme of the resort is decades... there are the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s. Each decade has decor specific to that time frame and has fun things to do.. such as the 50s decade building has a staircase of a giant yoyo that you can walk inside of because th...

We stayed at Walt  Disney World's Pop Century resort. It is considered a value resort. We paid around $89.00 during value season (September). The rooms are kind of small, the beds are double size and there is a TV in the room. But that is really about it. It was an OK size for our family of three, but I think a family of four might be a little tight. There is a food court at Pop Centur...

Before I moved down here to Florida my family and I would always make trips down to Disney World from Michigan and stay at their "on property" hotels.  One of their newer hotels, that we have stayed at quite a few times, is "Pop Century."  Also since I have moved down to Florida, I have stayed the night here when I have wanted to "get away."  Po...

Finally a Trivial Pursuit game I can play without feeling stupid!  This is for ages 8 and up but a lot of the questions have to do with things in the early 2000's and earlier so a younger person might not know the answers.  Your game pieces are cool with this game, an Atari controller, a tape, a lava lamp and a cell phone hold your wedge pieces.When you land on the wedge on the ga...

This cranium game is for ages 10 and up.This has the same basic idea as the other Cranium games but the answers will all be about things in pop culture.  It's a great game for those who feel stupid when they play trivia pursuit.  You get to chose the point value of each activity for the guessing.  This helps keep people from doing the charades everytime.  You get the num...

This lip gloss by Estee Lauder is a beautiful sheer gold colour. it goes on clear with little glints of gold glitter. However, the texture leaves something to be desired. It is slippery and sticky at the same time (somehow) and won't come off when you want it to, but disappears far too quickly during the day when you want it on. Also, it seems to ooze into the lines around your mouth, leavi...

Ok, I am going to give you the negatives first about this product.  First of all, you can only find them during the winter holiday season.  Second of all they are very sweet and the wrapper is hard to get off.  Now for the positives...THESE TASTE SOOO GOOD.  It's like a candy cane, but there's a stick, it's a smaller amount and then in the middle is a bit of toot...

There are four figures on this toy that pop up and sing a little song when a button or switch is activated.  Each button works differently.  Oscar is a dial, Cookie Monster is a button, Elmo is a sliding switch, and Ernie's switch is like a light switch.  The characters and the songs they sing are recognizable to little ones that watch Sesame Street.  My daughter receive...

Beads are a huge trend right now, for females of all ages, and bead kits are very popular among young girls and teenagers.  For my five year old, I wasn't sure that one of the normal bead kits was age appropriate, given the numerous small pieces and the manual dexterity necessary to create the bead jewelry.  Fortunately for my jewelry loving little one, Parents toys created a pop ...

This pop-up tent and tunnel system is tons of fun and provides lots of exercise. While the age recommendation was 3-7, I got it for my one-year-old, and I believe she is just the right age to start playing in it. She has no problem climbing in and out of it, and crawling around. Plus, because she is so small, she is able to stand up in all the tents, making for more fun play. This tent system i...

I have always had a love for Dr. Seuss books. What a gift of writing Dr. Seuss had! "Hop On Pop" is another book written by this great author. It is a very similar writing style as his other books. The words rhyme and repeat themselves which makes this book great for a child that is learning how to read. My son loves  this book because he can read it quite quickly, which builds h...

When I was pregnant with my first daughter, my husband and I decided to take a last minute trip by ourselves. We had both went to Disneyworld when we were growing up, but we had never gone together so we picked this destination. We did not have a lot of money so we decided to pick Disney's Pop Century Resort.Besides the price, we also liked the fact that it was the newest hotel on Disney pr...

When I found out I was pregnant with my second daughter, I was dreading the inevitable morning sickness (which, incidentally, lasts ALL day!). Then a friend of mine gave me a container of Preggie Pop Drops as a congratulations gift. I was skeptical, but figured, worst case scenario, they were a yummy candy.Preggie Pop Drops are an organic candy that contains all-natural, homeopathic i...
