Anyone been to Disney World w/ little kids??
We are taking the kids to Disney in September, DD is 3 and DS will be
one. I have not been there in many years and need advice from people
who have been there as to what the best things to do with little kids
are.
What parks are the best to go?
Anything we must do or see, activities?
Must restaurants?
Thanks so much!!!
Re: Anyone been to Disney World w/ little kids??
The ATL Bump board will be able to help you better answer this!
And maybe one of these books:

my NON child rearing, WDW loving (see sig) opinion:
What parks are the best to go? For little ones M.K. is the obvious choice. I'm sure kiddos love A.K. but maybe cannot handle a full day there. Epcot is prob not beloved by the littlest kids as is H.S./MGM.
Anything we must do or see, activities? the entriety of Magic Kingdom, Toy Story mania in H.S., check for the character stops (places to meet&greet and get pics with Disney characters), Turtle Talk with Crush at the Living Seas,
Must restaurants? Any that offer the Character meals?

Definitely ask on the bump board but I will give my thoughts (Daisy22 is an Atlanta bumpie who has taken her boys to Disney many many times and can give you lots of tips). We were there in January with my nieces who were 3.5 yrs and 6 months at the time. Obviously, the 6 month old spent most the day in the stroller. The older one walked a ton and was a trooper the whole trip.
Take the time to wait in the character lines. My older niece absolutely LOVED meeting all the characters and getting her little autograph book signed. Also, watch the parades. You usually need to scope out a seat along the parade route about 30 minutes before the parade starts but thats a good time to give them a little break.
At Magic Kingdom most of the rides are little kid friendly. My niece was too short for Space Mountain but absolutely loved Big Thunder Railroad. She also loved Dumbo and the Magic Carpets b/c she could control the height of the cars.
My brother and SIL spent an entire day in Epcot with the kids. I'm not a big Epcot fan but there are some fun things for the kids there.
Animal Kingdom has lots of stuff the kids can do also. My favorite show is The Lion King show. My niece was mesmerized by it.
At Hollywood Studios I love Toy Story Mania but I'll admit my older niece had a hard time grasping at the concept of the games. My brother was able to ride this with the younger niece in the baby bjorn. My older niece loved the Beauty and The Beast Show. She even rode Tower of Terror and didn't freak out or anything. I would also suggest seeing Fantasmic on night, it's a great show.
There are lots of Character meals to choose from. I've heard breakfast at the Tusker House in the Animal Kingdom is great but I've never done that. We did a princess breakfast at Epcot in the restaraunt in Norway that my niece loved. I love The Garden Grill restaurant in Epcot but they only serve dinner. I feel like I've gotten the most character attention at that restaurant b/c it's not a huge and overwhelming as some of the others.
