The most magical place on earth has seen some hefty price hikes. What gives?

From professional sports champions to families everywhere--Disney World has been a destination for the young and young at heart. But as many of those kids have grown older, they've noticed things aren't quite what they used to be when it comes to costs. Discuss this with your students in NGPF's new activity series based on Business Insider's web series: So Expensive. 

Students will watch a video about a specific product or service, identify the specific factors of production that impact its price, and dig deeper by answering a few thought-provoking questions.
