I have just read through some of your Disney world stuff, and I was wondering if you could help me. We are going in February with our 4 year old daughter. We will only be there for about 3-4 days and therefore we have to be a little selective. What parks are the best for a 4 year old girl? Of cause Magic kingdom is a must but what else?

Thank you

Amy

There are many websites which make this a very affordable option, often more affordable than a much small moderate resort room!

Riverside for older kids and French Quarter for younger kids. This twin resort has great pools, with slides. The Riverside has a live nightly piano player in the lobby who is super fun and Disney friendly. Port Orleans has the rentable boats, bikes and a boat ride to Downtown Disney. In addition, they have a fishing hut where you can rent poles and spend a lazy afternoon fishing. This is also one of the few hotels that you can fit 5 people in. They offer trundle beds in some of their rooms for the youngest child.

I’m interested in knowing how your experience was during the week of Thanksgiving. Thanks.

For us, when we can’t swing a deluxe, the mods always win for the bigger beds. Plus they’re closer to the Holy Grail, I mean Epcot. 😉 Boardwalk is where our heart is though.

thank you so much, Holly! It’s outside of our usual “decor” posts, but I think it’s good to venture every now and again since our blog is fam centered. 😉 good to know you will find it useful!

This post brought me out of my lurkdom! We have just begun planning for our first family trip to disney, next fall. Your insight has been very enlightening! Everyone has an opinion on Disney, but having it all in one place , by seasoned pros is going to be great! Looking forward to your next posts!

It was cheaper than staying in a larger resort with a suite. We could get the kids to bed early when they were tired, and we could stay up and watch movies.
