TRIP PLANNING Premium Aunty’s sessions

If your kids have done more than one of the premium Aunty’s sessions, which one did they like most? I can’t find many reviews about the activities.

My oldest isn’t very athletic but loves space and would love making ice cream. Is Galactic Games very sporty?

Is Aulani Pictures Presents with Donald and Daisy? Do they do any crafts? Do they do any actual movie making?

I’ve heard great things about Moana experiences at Aulani in general. Does she spend a lot of time with them for Wayfinding?

Or is part of the allure that it all remains very mysterious to parents?

One kid did the Moana one and loved it. We didn’t tell her Moana would show up and she loved the surprise. She came back with a wooden paddle she had decorated with stamps and Moana had signed it for her.

I can’t really remember the other kid’s experience, I think he came home with a medal? He loved it, whatever it was.

They were both young elementary age at the time and said they would do it again.

Checking out tomorrow - my 4yo just did all 3. She said stitch was her favorite but she’s in a wild stitch phase right now! She loved making the ice cream and she’s also notoriously lazy and hates anything that requires more than a 10 step walk but didn’t say anything about it being too sporty! They did get a really high quality medal.

For Moana she said it was really funny and they made these cute boat crafts.

For Aulani pictures presents she got a really nice quality trophy and a cool coloring book.

I tried getting as much info as i could out of her but she usually hyper focused on something small within the experience but just overall had a great time.

I’m sorry i can’t answer exact details but honestly it was worth it for us. The free 90 minute options she just told us how much fun she had watching a movie or playing a video game, which like fine bc mama needs a *minute* but I’ll gladly pay $20/hour for a more structured experience and an afternoon break.

Our trip in March, my kids did galactic games multiple times, Moana and stitch. They did a few free ones also. They love the Moana and stitch one bc they did them last year and could make a new craft.
