We are entitled to 1 early entry while we are there for our stay. Early morning are

Monday-CA
Tuesday-DL
Wednesday-none

I am thinking we would be better off not taking advantage of and do

Monday-DL
Tuesday-CA
Wednesday-park hop between 2

Are early morning important? If I do one then I have to contend the other day with 1 hour late start at the other park.
 
EMM only applies to Disneyland park, not DCA. So keep that in mind. I think if you have access to EMM, you should take it. Do you have all park hoppers?
 
If you have a Magic Morning, you can only use it at DL. You're correct in thinking that it's better to start in the empty park on days that you don't have early entry. What are the park opening times when you're there? Early entry functions very differently when it's at 7am than when it's at 9am, so that might make a difference...

Without knowing that, I'd probably start at DL on Monday and Tuesday (using MM), and start at DCA on Wednesday, and I'd park-hop all three days or at least Tuesday/Wednesday... But that's just me.
 
I guess I am confused because the Park Hours shows Extra Magic Hours for DCA too? I am reading and I am assuming that is for Disneyland Resort Hotels and not Good Neighbor.

So I have access only to one day early entry at DL? Correct...we have Magic Mornings.
 

We have park hoppers. Here are the projected park hours...what do you suggest for which park each day...

Monday
DL 8 am-11 pm
DCA 8 am - 10 pm....early entry for hotel guests at 7 am?

Tuesday
DL 8 am-11 pm...Magic Morning assuming 7 am?
DCA 8 am - 10 pm

Wednesday
DL 8 am-11 pm
DCA 8 am - 10 pm....early entry for hotel guests at 7 am?

Here is what I am thinking...tell me if I am off

Monday-DCA...earlier evening since we have 7 am entry the next day
Tuesday-DL
Wednesday-DL, evening at DCA for World of Color

That's what I would do! I think it's a good idea.

The whole extra hour thing can be confusing the first time around. Here's how it works:
  • MM = Magic Morning. Everyone who has a 3 day or more ticket (1 park/day tic kets or park hopper tickets) gets 1 MM entry. MM is ONLY good at DL. MM at Disneyland is ONLY on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays.
  • EMH = Extra Magic Hour. EMH is ONLY for guests of the DLH, PPH, or GCH. It's every day of the week. But EMH at DL is on Tues, Thurs, Sat. EMH at DCA is on Mon, Wed, Fri, and Sun.
Using your MM entry is TOTALLY worth it if you can get yourself up early to be at the park gates at 6:45 am (when they'll start scanning tickets & you can go to the end of Main Street for MM rope drop). There will be HARDLY ANYBODY in the parks at 7am! Trust me. It really is worth it.
 
Magic mornings are totally worth it...you can get ALOT of rides in DL. Mind you, only Fantasyland and Tomorrowland are open during MM (correct me , if I am wrong ). If you and your family are early risers, I say take advantage of MM. We are and boy, it makes a big difference! By 11:00 am, crowds were heavier...
