how do i figure out least crowded: Feb/Mar/Apr?

[jofo]

If someone has a suggestion or could point me in the right direction, I'd really appreciate it. I want to take my toddler in February, March, or April. My number one priority is low crowds. I do not care about any night shows or fireworks or parks closing early at night. I don't care about any refurbs of rides with height restrictions. I'd prefer low chance of rain, but I can cross reference with Hydroguy's weather post once I know which weeks will be least crowded. Obviously I need to go weekdays and not during Easter and try to avoid spring break weeks (I have no idea when those would be if not over Easter), but how do I figure out which weeks in those months will be least crowded? Ideally I would have a couple options within Feb/Mar/Apr due to scheduling issues (February might or might not be doable, seems like it would be least crowded but I'm not 100% sure we could go then). We'd probably be staying 3 nights max, somewhere on Harbor (in case that's relevant). Thanks!

Feb: avoid presidents day which is 2/20

March: spring breaks start mid month. The first 2 weeks should still be good.

April: after the 15th when spring breaks end

you want to try the undercovertourist web sit as well. They estimate the park crowding

If you plan Feb. you should avoid the whole week OF President's Day since a lot of So. Cal. schools get the whole week off - include the weekend before and the weekend after, too.

We love the first week of March. We are going again this coming March. Friday afternoons and Saturdays get a little busy - but since this is the best time to see the fireworks and F! we always add 2 weekend days.

We avoid April like the plague. Our DS 7's b-day is in April, and we went for Spring Break - Once. I will NEVER do that again. It was so crowded. Also, March and April have a lot of school groups coming in for music workshops, so the parks can get a little teenager heavy.

This is what I do. Look at the hours of operation on the Disneyland website. The longer the park is open on a certain day, the more crowded it will be. The least crowded days have park closing times of 6pm or 8pm.
