    Advice on which parks

    Hi, we are going out to Orlando for 2 wks in late May, with our 4.5yr old and 1yr old. Looking for advice on which parks would be best. My mum is coming with us too and she has said she would be happy to baby sit the youngest one if we wanted. Thx [msnsmile]

    Wow! This is a long piece of string and you will receive a shed load of advice I'm sure.
    What I would say if i may is don't try and do too much-build in lots of chill out time particularly with the little ones-you will need a buggy for the 4.5 year old and it can work out cheaper buying one than hiring at the parks.
    The one absolute must see for all of you is Magic Kingdom probably more than once-the rest of the advice i'll leave to others.
    Are you staying in a villa or a hotel?

    I have to say that for kids, it's hard to beat Magic Kingdom. In the other parks there are specific areas dedicated to children, but it's only really here that pretty much everything is child-friendly, especially in Fantasyland. I'd advise you either to go early in the day and leave before the crowds set in, or else come early evening. Don't try and pack to much in, you don't want to tire the kids out!
    I'd definately advise getting a stroller in the parks- I can remember when my brother was 5 pushing him around Epcot, and he loved it! It was a real novelty to be pushed around the park and it meant he had a lot more energy

    hope you have a lovely holiday!

    thx guys, yes a stoller is a definite - i might be tempted to climb in and get my 4 yr old to push me about, I am sure she'll have more energy than me!

    she doesn't know yet! she was in orbit over a the run up to Easter and the thought of a few eggs, so she will go nuts over this! Not sure when we'll tell her. We last took her about 18m ago, just before she turned 3 and she can remember quite a bit of it. I can't wait!!
