First time to WDW - fastpass questions and a few others

[stacmi]

family of 4 traveling the second weekend of February. Planning to do one day at the Magic Kingdom and wondering if day of the week matters for crowds? trying to decide between Sat, Sun, or Mon? Just purchased tickets today and didn't know if I should go ahead and book pastpass times now or wait until the day of? I didn't know if passes given for each ride are limited and may be booked up if I wait. We have 6 and 10 year old, what do you recommend using our first three FP's for?
Thank you, this is quite overwhelming

to DISboards!

It's best to book your FPs as soon as you decide which day you'll be in the park.

You'll need to set up your My Disney Experience account and link your tickets there. FP-wise, check availability for 7 Dwarfs Mine Train, Space Mountain, and Peter Pan. Big Thunder Mountain RR and Splash Mountain are also good choices.

At the top of this forum there is the FP FAQ by mesaboy2 that is filled with info regarding FPs.
