[quote=Anonymous]Definitely make the reservations 6 months in advance.  Figure out which park you want to do which day and make your meals based on that.  The best pieces of advice I got worked beautiffully - we went twice when my girls were 3 and 5 and again when they were 5 and 7.  Do the meal plan - don't use it for breakfast - eat breakfast in your room (get cereal and milk) so you can get to the park at opening time.  Make reservations at the castle for dinner the day you are at Magic Kingdom.  Make reservations for Chef Mickey's for dinner - a great character meal as well - you can also watch the fireworks from the balcony there and they pipe in the music!  Make reservations for O'hanna at the Polynesean hotel for dinner - you can watch the fireworks on the beach there and they also pipe inthe music (and you can see the electric water parade from there.
If you get there when the parks open, you can go straight to the rides like Dumbo, and Peter Pan that usually have long lines.  Get your fast passes for later in the morning for the rides like Splash Mountain, Thunder Mountain.  Have an early counter lunch on your meal plan - go to Be our Guest - it is fabulous for lunch.  By around 2, thekids will be tired and start to drag.  Go back to your hotel - especially since you are at GF - go to the pool and relax and enjoy.  It will refresh them for later.  Then you can do showers and everyone is refreshed for dinner and park for the evening.  If you do the meal plan, you will end up having counter service lunches and sit down dinners (if you plan it right) and you can plan your days based on that.  Also, you will have snack credits and my kids always like having mickey waffles one day for breakfast.  If you have enough time to enjoy a whole day at the hotel. that could be the day you go for a nice breakfast.  For fast pass reservations - check out allears.net - they have reviews of all restaurants and rides and lots of good tips.  Good luck!  I love Disney!![/quote]
