First visit with family

[Firsttimer15]

Hi Everyone,
I am excited. I will take my kids both 4y to disneyworld this may for the first and probably last time. We come from Europe so we'll Not take the trip again.
I am a Little confused by the new fp+. I went a couple of years ago with my husband when there were the paper fp's. It was a Nice leisurely trip and worked fine w/out Planning.
I didn't know so much changed so I obiviously didnt get fp's anymore for the stuff the Kids wanted to Do. Because I Booked the trip just now. I hope it doesnt end with everyone unhappy.
I really don't feel like spending a Lot of hours with meticulous planning.
What rides would you recommend? My daughter is scared of rides that are fast.
Thank you for this bord, it definitely helps

Welcome! Most of the rides in Fantasyland are not "fast" rides. If that is her fear, I would steer clear of Seven Dwarfs Mine Car. I'm not sure what she considers fast. I hope you all have a great time!

Thank you so much. I guess mostly everything I have planned Peter Pan and Small World for her. Would have loved Ana and Elsa but didn't get those obiviously. We Plan to pass by the attractions and just aks her if she wants to join. She doesnt do Even Dumbo like rides. I Hope she will still have a good time, the atmosphere is so special that might be enough excitement

I agree with the O.P and maybe ride the Steamboat and don't forget to take in some shows like Country Bears and Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor

If you really want to see Ana and Elsa, put your jet lag to use and get to Magic Kingdom at opening and go right to the Princess Hall. May still be a wait, but shouldn't be too long.

For a slow ride liker try:
Little Mermaid
Enchanted Tiki Room
Jungle Cruise
The steam engine train that goes from frontier land to the front of the park
Haunted Mansion isn't fast but it may scare her

happiness is what you make of it..

In magic Kingdom.

I would do all the kiddo rides in fantasy land, except seven mine dwarfs. the shows except stitch one, there is buzz light year shooting ride, Splash mountain, jungle cruise, river boat, the tikki birds, tom sawyer. splash and play are.

You can grab all the fp+ day of from your phone or a kisos touch screen in the park. You might get left overs, but hey even then they will save you time waiting in line.

Thank you for all your suggestions

If you don't get to meet Anna and Elsa, you can still see them in the Festival of Fantasy parade at the Magic Kingdom. Also, they're in the Frozen Sing-Along at Hollywood Studios, which is very cute.

Have you selected any FP's yet? Which ones?

Magic Kingdom -- you've gotten some good advice. In Fantasyland, besides the Seven Dwarves Mine Train, I'd also skip Barnstormer if she doesn't like fast rides. Also, I wouldn't do Splash Mountain for her. The Peoplemover in Tomorrowland is a great relaxing ride that's doesn't go fast or have any dips -- it's just a smooth, flat ride. There are a couple of parts that are dark, but nothing scary, and it's very quick.

Dream Along with Mickey is a fun show in front of the castle throughout the day, and the Move It, Shake It parade lets the kids dance, and is performed several times a day. My four year-old nephew loves the Main Street Electrical Parade (night-time parade), too.

Epcot -- Nemo, Turtle Talk with Crush, Journey into the Imagination with Figment, Mexico ride are all neither fast nor scary. Soarin' isn't fast or scary, but it does seem like you're hang gliding/flying. Spaceship Earth isn't fast, but it might be boring for their ages.

Hollywood Studios -- Toy Story, Voyage of the Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast show, Disney Jr. show, Frozen Sing-Along, Honey I Shrunk the Kids Playground

Animal Kingdom -- Safari, Boneyard Playground, Flights of Wonder (trained bird show), Festival of the Lion King show, Nemo show, train to Rafiki's Planet Watch

And, don't forget about all the characters.

Are the Hollywood Studios worth a visit? We have a 5day ticket. We planned to visit each park once and MK twice?

 

[Shmily01]

Hollywood Studios has Disney Jr. characters (a show, a dining oppertunity, and M&G) so if she is a fan, maybe a half day here if you have ParkHoppers. The Toy Story Ride is not fast and she may like some of the other shows (Voyage of the Little Mermaid or Beauty and the Beast). The Muppets Show is cute too. Have a great trip!

 

[Firsttimer15]

We don't have the hopper but if we still feel like would maybe go to sea world.
Thank you they both love the Disney Juniors a lot
