My biggest tip would be that if your child will fit in a stroller, then hire one!!:thumbsup2
We recently spent 8 days at POFQ and did 5 days at the main 4 parks plus 1 day at SeaWorld, as well as 2 days at Typhoon Lagoon. It was our most intense visit ever, as previously we had stayed off site, and had never done consecutive days at parks before.
A stroller means that all the adults can move at adult pace (my husband was in an ECV so could keep up too) and even hurry to get to a timed event if necessary without having to wait for 'little legs'. The child gets to ride and you also know where they are.
My grandaughter princess: is nearly 7, but she fitted easily and I saw many other even larger children in strollers. I gave her a map to study while I steered her around, and she made a game of finding her stroller each time we got off a ride.
At $15 a day ($12 at SeaWorld) it's not cheap, and I hadn't thought before we went that I would hire one at every park, and indeed, I didn't at our first park - Animal Kingdom where just she and I went. However, next day was a full day/night at Magic Kingdom, and once we'd hired the first one we were all hooked!
