Disneyland Paris

We have booked to go to Disneyland Paris in March 2015 (2 adults, 1 4yo child) and I wondered how much would be realistic to spend on a daily basis. I realise that the obvious answer is that there is no limit for somewhere like this but we had a budget in mind of £100-120 per day (or whatever this will equate to in Euros) for food and drink etc and wondered if this was doable. I understand that the rides are free so I am only expecting to pay for food, drink and any extras we buy for daughter while we are there (i.e. in the toy shops etc). Entry to the park is included in the holiday price so we don't have to worry about that. Any experiences/thoughts would be gratefully received.

The devil is always in the detail and it depends what else is in the "etc"
What board are you staying at the hotel? B&B? Are you needing to pay any transport in the etc or are we really just talking food, drink and souvenirs?
Assuming it is just the above and your idea of a light evening meal doesnt involve foie gras and several bottles of champagne then £120 a day should be more than enough for most families of 3.0 -

Thanks for the reply. We have already paid for travel and accommodation. It really is just the cost of food, drink and souvenirs. Breakfast is included at the hotel we are staying at so it would just be lunch and dinner/tea that we have to pay for (as far as meals go) as well as any snacks.
When I say "etc", I just mean any extras that I may not have already thought of (I don't think there is anything but you never know). I have had a look online at some of the menus for various restaurants in the park and it looks like we should be ok on that budget. We are hoping to stick to £700 (or whatever this will translate to in Euros) spending money for a 5 day, 4 night stay. I have suggested to relatives that if they would like to they can give our daughter money for her birthday (which is January) and I will keep it by for her to use when we are away so she will also have her own money to spend on toys etc - this was just a suggestion, not a request before anyone misunderstands and thinks that I was asking people for money. Everyone I spoke to was very happy to do this, esp as her birthday is the week after xmas so they have decided to do presents for xmas, then holiday money for her birthday.0 -
for 3 of you £100 per day is more than enough for DLP, you'll be absolutely fine on that amount
