Critique my ADR plan for a 2 year old

[amies]

We have a 3 year old and a 1 year old, both girls. We will be there in about 7 weeks for 4 nights but only have time to do 3 parks with our travel schedule. (We are going to the beach the last half of the week.)

We will be doing Akershus for breakfast our first day, Tusker House for lunch our second day and then wrapping up our third day at MK with (hopefully) BOG for lunch and CRT for dinner. I'm really wishing we were able to get a fourth park in so we could do H&V. My older daughter is a huge Jake and Sophia fan. But it just doesn't make sense with our schedule - and she will never know we are missing them.

We are not buffet people but with the little ones I can be assured there is something they will eat. Good luck!

DD does like animals, or at least she likes cats and dogs and was fascinated when we took her to the zoo. I think AK probably has more for her than HS. HS has a lot of shows, but I am not sure how well she will do sitting through those.

They all loved AK too because they loved the animals. Do your little girl like animals? If you visit Disneyland a lot, maybe having a day at AK instead of MK would be good. But if she isn't a big fan of animals, I'd go for a second day at MK.

If you have to skip a park with a little one, I would def. skip HS. Our trip to HS when DS was 3 involved walking out of Disney Junior, walking out of Mupets, walking out of Little Mermaid, and crying in the animation courtyard when we tried to get him to meet Mickey. He did love the lights, motor, action show and the Honey I Shrunk the Kids playground. That's it. We had a FP for TSMM, but it was for hte evening and there was no way we were hanging around that long, so we didn't even ride that.

On the flip side, he loved pretty much everything about Epcot and Animal Kingdom. I would say he probably liked Epcot better than MK even.

Thanks for the tip! DD doesn't do well sitting through shows so it's probably not worth trying to see many of them. We might just go to HS for half a day.

We did lunch at BOG in July and didn't have a fast pass. The wait at noon was around 20 minutes, not too bad. They had a lot of delicious lunch choices, I think the little one would be fine there at lunch. DD was 23 months at the time and LOVED the dining room that has the dancing belle/beast.

20 minutes isn't bad at all We are going the 2nd week of Feb on weekdays, so it should be low to average crowds. I did snag a BOG dinner reservation, but I may cancel it as I think the lunch would probably go better for DD.

Well now I am 180 days out from out Epcot day and I can’t decide between The Garden Grill, Biergarten and Akershus. They all look good for different reasons. DD isn’t super into the Disney Princesses yet, but I still think she would like Akershus, and I like you get a photo to take home. Biergarten sounds fun for the dancing and entertainment, and my heritage is German so I would also like to check it out for that reason. DD would probably be the most into the animal characters, which is why I picked The Garden Grill originally, but it looks like the food options there are limited. Now I can't decide
