Looking for some advice from others that have been to Disney with younger kids. We have two boys aged 4 and 5, w'll be in Disney for 10 days without park hopper tickets.

How many days would you spend at each of the 4 parks.

Magic Kingdom - 3
Animal Kingdom - 3 (two shorter days - noon arrival day and until 3pm departure day plus a full day - is that too much?)
Epcot - 2
Hollywood Studios - 2 (is there a lot for the boys to do here?)

Our youngest is 42" and our oldest is 46" if that plays any factor into planning days.

Thanks for any help you can offer.
 
Are you not going to any of the water parks? Typhoon Lagoon is AMAZING! They have a title wave pool that is out of this world, and a water coaster (Crush n' Gusher). This water coaster is unbelievable!!!

As for the parks, Each park is unique. MK has a lot of rides that children of all ages can go on, they have Mickey's Toontown Fair, where you can walk through Minnie's and Mickey's house and meet Judge Mickey himself!!

At EPCOT, there are a bunch of KidCop throughout the World Showcase for children to create, build, and experience in that specific country! EPCOT is great for all ages as well!

That's the thing with Disney World. All the parks are designed to accommodate each individual (to a degree). There are rides, performances, parades, attractions, character trails, etc in each park!

If you pm me with your email address I can send you my Disney Portfolio that outlines all the MUST do & see, hints and tips to saving money, restaurants that are available, character meals, etc...you won't want to miss this!!!

I go every year 2, 3 and sometimes 4 times a year...and LOVE IT!! You will definitely love Disney World! Let me know if you would like me to send it, if not, I can outline it for you. ENJOY!!!!!

3 for Magic Kingdom may be about right.
Since you plan 2 short days at AK then I guess 3 is OK...
Epcot...You may want to try the Kim Possible thing to make the World Showcase Fun for the kids...personally I get bored to death over there...but maybe that's just me.
2 Days at HS sounds OK too...IF you want to do all the Shows...it's about impossible to get to all the shows...and squeeze in a Ride or 2 in one Day...just be prepared to be Outside allot Seemed most of the Counter Service Food places were Outside...Most of the Shows are Outside (with a cover) (Indy, L.M.A., B&B). If your Kids like Playhouse Disney...they should like that show...It is actually inside. Be Sure to Ride Toy Story Mania and Get a Fast Pass for it...Really cool ride. Your kids maybe too short for the another really cool ride...the Rockin Rollercoaster. I think both maybe ok for the Tower of Terror...though it may scare the bahgeebeez out of them. :scared1:
 

I think it sounds like a pretty good plan.

As for AK, after the first 1/2 day and then the full day, you can assess whether you want to go back on the final 1/2 day or not.
If NOT, then maybe one of the other 3 parks could use another 1/2 day.
