We were there last summer for 2 full days with our 4 year olds and did Magic Kingdom one day and Animal Kingdom the second. Aside from the Lion King show, Nemo show, and the safari, I did t feel that there was much more for their age group at Animal Kingdom. I would have been happy spending 2 days at Magic Kingdom and taken a slower pace.

With two days, I'd do Magic Kingdom both days. I'd also try to do a character meal--either Crystal Palace for Pooh and the Gang or Cinderella's Castle for the princesses.

Epcot was great for Soarin', Test Track, and Turtle Talk with Crush (and whatever else the Nemo "ride" is).



Agree.

Animal kingdom is so so compared to the others.

I'd do teoo at MK or one at Epcot.

If you have a boy I would say only one at MK and the other definitely at Hollywood.

Princesses: Magic Kingdom, then Epcot World Showcase - A meal at Cinderella's Table or Akerhaus in Epcot can get you a meeting with 4 or 5 of them and knock out a meal. (Don't expect noteworthy food anywhere.)

Mickey: He's everywhere.

Frozen: Anna and Elsa are only in Epcot right now, but they have a deal-breaker wait. Don't know how long that will last.

Little mermaid: Magic Kindgom. She's also at the princess character meals.

We love Animal Kingdom. It your DD is tall enough and a thrill seeker, Everest is fun. The safari is awesome. The Lion King show is one of my favorite shoes, but I don't know when it returns.

For your first trip 2 days at MK. Take your time and see everything. Make a lunch reservation.

I'd do MK day one, and then see. If you felt like there was more that you didn't get to see, go back and do more. If you felt like "that was great, but we saw it all", I'd try Epcot. If it's the middle of summer and you're tired of hot lines, I'd try Typhoon Lagoon.

Since she likes that stuff, I would spend both days at MGK.
