Advice needed ~ Please help this confused MBer!

OK, here is the situation. We would like to bring my Mom, my cousin and her little boy with us for a trip next summer. ***inside back story*** My cousin's husband left her while she was pregnant and she has raised her son alone who will be turning 6 for this trip. She has been a fantastic Mom and we would like to do something nice for the both of them that they could never afford to ever do on their own.

Since we will be paying for a group 8 this trip, DH and I wanted to keep the costs down if we can. We have always stayed at the Deluxe resorts and we would like to stay at AKL because her little boy loves animals , but for the 12 days we will be there including the DDP, the price would astronomical.(So if anyone has any ideas for us I would really appreciate it) We are considering a split stay vacation for this trip. I was thinking 7 days at a value and then the last 4 days at AKL.

Here is my question:

If we were to do a split stay, would we have to buy 2 sets of MYW tickets to continue on the Dining plan?

We were considering a 10 MYW ticket w/ options because we plan on hitting the water parks for a couple days. When trying to price these options out on the website, I always have to purchase another base ticket to continue the DDP. I hope this is not the case.

Sometimes I feel like trying to figure out the best possible solution for our trip is like an Algebra problem!
