First time with 5 and 2 year old...

[RVGal]

Hubby & I have done US several times and IOA once before we had our children, but this will be our first trip back with the little ones. I know our 5 y/o son will be able to do several of the rides, but it looks like one of us is going to be doing a lot of sitting and waiting with our 2 y/o son.

What CAN our littlest guy do? And where are the best places for me & hubby to switch off letting our 2 y/o play while the other one takes our 5 y/o to ride?

We have breakfast with Spiderman ressies already, but other than that we have a few days to play around the parks with no real plans. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

There are lots of shows for the whole family, he should be able to ride everything at US except the Mummy 48in, MIB 42in,Jimmie neutron 40in. You could take your little to the curious george playground, or see the Barney show and let your hubby ride a few rides with 5 year old and then meet up and all ride ET, and Woody wooodpecker's coaster. Trust me if you separate for about a hour your little one won't even know he missing anything. In IOA it maybe a little harder, just check the ht restrictions on th US/IOA website. Definitely bring your cell phones so if you do separate is easy to reconnect. Have a great time!

Jimmy Nuetron has stationary seating for those under the height requirement.

MIB and Spiderman are the only rides I can think of that the 2yr won't be able to ride, that the 5yr will be able to.

If I ran the Zoo, in IOA, is a great play area for little ones. It is small, lots of water and lots of places for parents to sit and watch.
