Little Sienna is currently 3.5 years old. Very mature for age, easy going, never wines, easy going like me...
We think it would be great to take her to magic kingdom. Was hoping to get some thoughts on these subjects.
Grandson Sawyer is currently 7 months old. We can't take both and can't wait until he is so old he will realize we are taking just Sienna. I figure we should go by the fall of this year, next spring at the latest.
DD would plan a family trip themselves for when the kids are 4 and 7 or 5 and 8. Health willing we would go then also.
I don't want to put off a trip as you knever know what tomorrow brings. DW and I are not in the greatest of health.
DW and I have made 6 Or so trips on our own so we know WDW and this trip would be just for Sienna.
We would probably do a value site for the theming. We also rent DVC points put I don't think the boardwalk would impress a 4 year old... What would be best for her?
How many days is a big question. We usually go Sunday to friday which seems short for us alone but I'm thinking 3 night would be all we could handle with a 4 year old. Most we have had her sleep over now Is two nights.
1 day to travel from Providence and settle in to the resort. Maybe a short night trip to one of the other parks.
2nd day, rope drop to magic kingdom, return to resort for nap time. Go back at night to MK. Don't know if she could make the fireworks unless timing worked out perfect.
3rd day open for whatever Sienna wants to do. Return to MK or check out another park. another chance to hit the fireworks ? I'm thinking MK would be her main interest.
4th day, here we usually head home around a noon ish flight, we don't try to sneak inany more park time. In this case we could try to squeeze in some more time and come home later. BUT worried about hitting a park then not having a room for sienna, if even needed?, then the whole airport, travel, flight, this will make for a long day for her.
So what am I not thinking off when visiting with a 4 year old.
We would not push her and try anything commando,
( I'm usually the commando, my wife is a stroller, she now refuses to hurry to catch the next bus. A running joke with us. )
What about special activities for a little girl? Don't want to over do the schedule for her. I've never done much research on the dress up thing for little princesses.
We have never done any meet and greets, but she will want to meet Mickey and Minnie For sure, what's the best way to do that ? Probably involves lots of waiting?
Would probably do the breakfast meet and greet at MK, did that once before.
Any comments of suggestions on this plan would be great help.
Thanks
Bunky. ( this is the name Sienna gave me, we don't know where she got it but I am the Bunk! )
