8 nights / 3 to 4 park days ~ HELP!

[SandraC]

Hi all! Next trip I will buy 7 day hopper plus passes for my family (me, dh, dd will be 10 and ds will be 4). At first I thought we would use 3 park days and 3 options and rest a couple days (maybe Sea World too). (I have an option day left over from a previous trip). I figured we would save 4 park days and 2 options for another trip a couple years after the next trip. My kids will be about 12 and 6 for the trip after next. But then I started to think that my kids might really like Universal when they are 6 and 12 (we took dd to Universal when she was 4, we think it's an older kid park). But the time the kids are 6 and 12, Universal will be great! So now I am thinking 4 WDW park days when the kids are 4 and 10 and Sea World and when they are 6 and 12 do 3 WDW park days and 2 Universal Days. What do you think? S

I think that sounds like a great idea!

We've done Universal several times now - this past December, we brought my 6 yr old to Universal and she LOVED it!! Of course, right now - she is really into Spongebob Squarepants and it was the highlight of the trip meeting him! She loved watching a little girl get "slimed". It was a great day - and we had dinner at Hard Rock Cafe, and she got her hair wrapped on the Boardwalk. We stayed at the Royal Pacific Hotel which was great - and the front of the line passes are really great! We didn't get to do Islands of Adventure - my little one really isn't into roller coasters yet.

On our next big trip to Disney, I'd like to also combine a trip to Universal and Seaworld. I think the kids would love it!
