Help with busy day w/ 4 year old.

[jupers]

Ok, so for our June trip we will be there for our DD's 4th b'day. I have one day that's really booked and need suggestions for fitting rest time in here.

For her birthday we have lunch at CRT at 12:45. Then my DH is doing Divequest at Epcot at 4:30 and we want to watch him. After we have dinner at La Cellier at 8pm. I know this is a lot but it's the only day for him to Divequest. Any ways to let DD rest in this time frame? Any suggestions?

Are you this busy at home? If you are, it will be easy to judge how your DD will do. Especially around the late dinner etc.

I wouldn't do anything before CRT. Let the family sleep in. Go and enjoy CRT and maybe a couple of rides after then return to WL for some down time.

Your DH has to get fitted up etc. so that will take some time. You can always ask the Divequest people (call) to see when they expect the divers to be ready for viewing. I would think that this would give you an extra 30 minutes or at least 15 as they are going over the rules etc.

Remember that June is a busy time, so make sure that you allow extra time to get to places. Our last visit at the WL the buses took forever--this was in July. Going to WDW is fast, but we always allow an hour to reach any other place.

Honestly, I would skip Le Cellier. That's a lot to do in one day, the meal will be LATE, your DD will be wiped out and possibly very cranky.

Maybe I am missing something but I think it sounds like a very EASY day. What am I missing? I see a Lunch and a Dinner scheduled. The child is not doing Divequest! Why will she need a break? My 4 yr olds did a heck of a lot more than this in a day, Like open and close a park. If it was me I'd be at Mk for opening and ride till lunch, have lunch then head over to Epcot ride a few things, watch dad and then head back to Dinner. Where is the over extension? Sounds like an easy day for us. I still don't get why she would be wiped out.

I disagree with PP. I think the dinner is a little too late if she is not having nap during the day BUTif she usually does not nap during the day she should be fine!!
