FP Strategy for HS with preschoolers

[Surgie2]

Closing in on our FP selection date so trying to finalize but I'm stuck on HS. !0 in our group including 4 preschoolers ages 1-5.

Our park date is May 7 and a top priority is TSMM which I know could be closed But for planning purposes we will go with what we know.

Planning FP for TSMM, Frozen Sing-Along and ??

The adults don't want ToT and if anyone wants RnR they will do single rider. We plan to see Beauty and the Beast, Disney Jr. and Muppet Vision in that order of priority if we can sit through that many shows. I feel like it's a wasted FP to use on a show but I really don't see anything else for us at HS.

Am I missing anything that would appeal to preschoolers and is there one show over another that would benefit more from a FP? I want to schedule 3 FP on the chance anyone wants to do a ride with a 4th.

We used a FP+ for Disney Jr. with my 2yo DD and it was a good choice. If you’ve never seen the show before, it’s actually done using hand puppeteering and you sit in the floor. Because if that, being closer to the stage definitely has its advantages. We sat front row which ended up being great for that.

Thanks for that suggestion! If TSMM is closed I'd be real tempted to skip HS but the kids do like the Disney Jr. characters.

We also found that the Disney Jr. meet and great lines moved fairly quickly. I think my daughter waited maybe 5 minutes to meet Sophia and it was the highlight of her week!

My 5 year old loves Star Wars (and TOT actually) so if any of the preschoolers are 40" I would do that.

The Frozen Show is also a good use of FP+ for preschoolers. My kids love that show. They also love the Disney Jr. show. I agree if thy are 40 inches Star Tours is a good one. If they are 40 inches they can also do ToT. My kids don't like that at all.

Ok good to know, I hadn't considered Star Tours for the older 3 who will all be tall enough. Hmmm...pretty sure they definitely would not like ToT so if we do ST would you get this set of FP:

TSMM, Star Tours and Disney Jr.
OR
TSMM, Star Tours and Frozen

I guess the question is...which has a better chance of good seating with no FP - Disney Jr. or Frozen?
