Critique my star wars plan?

[JennCa]

Sunday June 1st-Star Wars Day, our first one! Please critique, my kids aren't old enough to see all the shows or care about meeting the characters. Seeing them from a distance will make them more than happy : )

4 year old, 11 year old, 40ish old and other extended family that we will see occasionally (hopefully when I need someone to swap with and watch my 4 year old at Rock and Roll Coaster)

*Get there by 7:20.

*Hopefully got to Toy Story Mania 1st and ride all together 1-2 times.

*Then rush to sign up for Jedi Training for my 4 and 11 year old. Ask for a late afternoon show. Sign up at the ABC Sound Studio or by Indiana Jones? Will they let us have a later in the day show, hoping for 1pmish? Can I request or will they only allow the request if I have FP for the morning?

*Go on Rock and Roll Roller Coaster with single riders

*See the 11:30 Force parade- how early should I get there?

*Go on Star Tours with FP between 11:45-12:45

*Jedi training?

*Tower of Tower with FP between 2:20-3:20

*Jedi Training?

Is Stars of the Saga a good show for kids?

see 1st show of Fantasmic and go home

Plan on seeing Muppet Vision, Lights, Motor Action, the Honey I shrunk the kids playground.


Is there another parade or show I should check out?

Am considering leaving HS and going to Epcot and then wandering back just for Fastasmic.

Any thoughts?

Need to rearrange my FP ASAP.

I will be new to SWW that weekend myself but have read the SWW tips and tricks board. SO will mention what I think based on that research.

If you want kids in JTA, you must go straight there at rope drop - before TSMM.
There are some popular characters that weekend, so I think you need to line up for the parade at least 1 hour before the parade.
Are you using your children's MBs for FP+ that you could use as a way to maximize FP+ - just a thought?
You and I are probably lucky that we don't need to get autographs or stand in line to meet characters! We are hoping to ride TSMM and RnR without FP+ while everyone else is running to line up for photos with Chewie and other characters. (My kids are old enough to want the shows, so that will be my stress and I'm hoping for FP+s there.)
I hope one of the SWW experts will weigh in, but above is all the newbie info I can pass on.
