I'm planning to take my husband and 6 kids. They are going to be 12,11,10,7,5,3 at the time of the trip. I'm wondering how much time you would plan to spend at each park? I'm thinking at least 2 at magic kingdom? We plan to stay 9 days but take a break at least one day and do sea world too
 
We usually do 2 days at MK, 2 at Epcot 1.5 at HS 1 at AK. We will pop in an out of MK because it's only one monorail stop away. But that is our general outline. We will also spend some days going to a park but only going for an hour or two FP+ has really made those days nice.
 
Personally I'd do 2 at MK, 3 at Epcot, 1 at Animal Kingdom and 1 at Hollywood Studios. However, Epcot is my favorite part.

Based on what you want, I'd do 3 at Magic Kingdom, 2 at Epcot, and 1 at Animal Kingdom and Hollywood Studios. That's 7 days total, leaving you room for a break day and a day at Sea World. With Magic Kingdom and the varying ages of your children, you'll want to those three days to take it at a slower pace and get everything done. Epcot can be divided into two sections, one day for Future World and one day for World Showcase. I love Animal Kingdom, but there just isn't enough to warrant another day, and Hollywood Studios can easily be completed in a day.
 
1 at each park, and leave the remaining days undecided so you can repeat your favorites :thumbsup2

We usually do 1 day at HS, 1 day at AK , 2 days at MK and 2 days at Epcot.

If we still have days left, we would spend them either at MK or EP. We do a lot of hopping over to MK or Epcot at night.
 
We generally like 2 at MK, 2 at Epcot, 2 at HS and one at AK. That seems to satisfy everyone in our family. I would love to kick Epcot up to 3 and HS down to one, but I am only the Mom.

That's a good idea in theory, but I would drive myself crazy thinking about ADRs and FP+. But that's my own issue. :rotfl: I do like to have a plan, but I am flexible enough to change the plan if there's something we still really wanted to do at a different park on the last day (no hoppers for us).

We don't like having entire "rest" days. We get antsy if we're at the resort (although I will point out that our last couple trips have not been warm enough to swim anyway). I'd probably get 8-day tickets, since the cost is not much more than 7 days. Then we'd do a few easy days, where we sleep in OR hit rope drop and finish early. In your case, I'd probably do 3 MK, 2 EP, 1 AK, and 2 partial days at DHS, although the last MK day could be swapped if we missed anything earlier in the week.
 
We did 2 at MK, 2 at Epcot, 1 at Hollywood Studios and 1 at Animal Kingdon and that was pretty perfect for us. If we had extra days we would probably repeat MK or Epcot.

We usually do 2 at MK, 2 at Epcot, 1 at HS and 1 at AK. If we were 9 days, we would also try to get to a water park as well.

SeaWorld is a fun time and a little more relaxing as you are watching the animals and stuff. We have not been recently, but I heard the Antarctica attraction is awesome!
