[quote=Anonymous]For two adults and a 4 year old boy.  Both adults have been before, but it's been a while and I know a lot has changed.  Four year old has never been.  A couple of questions:

1.  Best time to go (a.k.a least crowded/least expensive):  We were looking at either Veterans Day week, Thanksgiving, or the week of Martin Luther King Day in January.  Any other times slow?  We're trying to take advantage of our son's last year in preschool and not having to work around the set elementary school break schedule.  Summer is also out, since we seem to suffer from the heat in the DC area alone, let alone Florida.

2.  Where did you stay?  We would prefer to stay on property at WDW (don't plan on renting a car).  Depending on what kind of deals are available, we'd like to keep the cost to under $300/night.  Given my son's age, I'm guessing the Magic Kingdom would be the major draw, but also realize that the hotels closest to it are also the most expensive.  Would like something that embraces the Disney atmosphere for my son's benefit so he can feel the "magic".  Nothing too "deluxe", but not bottom rung, either.

3.  Speaking of MK, what other parks are recommended for this age for a boy?  I loved Epcot, but don't know if there is much there for him to enjoy, which is a bummer.  Is the Animal Kingdom worth it?  What about Hollywood Studios?  I heard there is a Disney Jr. focus there, which I think he'd like.

A lot, I know.  Thanks in advance![/quote]
