I need your help!

[Mom24girlygirls]

This will be our first trip to WDW and I'm so excited. The trip was a very last minute kind of deal, so I'm frantically trying to plan. We have 4 daughters, ages 3,5,7,& 9. We plan on surprising them. Here's what I've been able to plan. PLEASE offer any input. I want this to be an awesome experience! Thanks in advance!

Flight arrives at 11:44am on 8/26 (Friday)
4:40pm dinner at 1900 Park Fare
Should I bring the girls Princess costumes??
Plan on a little MK after dinner

8:50am Cinderella's Royal Table

We have the "free" dining plan and park hopper tickets.

What are your thoughts on the days at the park?

Resturants?

Everyone raves about O'Hana's...will we be missing out?

Should I bother to bring the 4 Princess dresses?

I haven't planned parades or shows yet. Obviously, we won't be able to stay up too late every night with kids this young. Any thoughts?

I can't believe we're going to WDW in less than 2 weeks!

THANK YOU.

I would bring them if you have room. It would make for a nice picture that they will enjoy looking at when they get older.....

You don't have a day for MGM. The girls might love meeting Chicken Little in the Animation building. They also have a great film about Walt Disney himself. I would do a day at MGM and book a Fantasmic dinner package. This way you will not miss out one what is one of the best night time shows Disney has to offer.

YOU CAN DO SHOWS ONE DAY AND PARADES ANOTHER DAY. MAKE SURE YOU STAY FOR WISHES, FANTASMIC, AND ILLUMINATIONS.

HAVE FUN

THANK YOU.

Thanks for the advice!

I'm going to look into MGM and will definitely bring the Princess dresses. I'll check into Fantasmic dinner reservations. I can't believe I was able to get any reservations lsat minute.

O'hana's ?? Do you think I should save it for another time? Or switch another meal?

Never done Ohana's, but I heard great reviews!
