Hi - we always go November/December, and have gotten pretty spoiled by the low crowds. We can't go this year, and are trying for early next year. I'm looking at the week of Feb. 12. I know that in the northeast, the following week is President's week which is a busy time, but does anyone know how the prior week is? My other alternative is the last week in February or anytime in March - my kids are little and I'm not worried about school.

Thanks!
 
My wife, our 2 sons (9 and 5), and I (from NH) made our first trip to WDW this year. We went Feb. 22-March 3rd. We were very surprised at how low the crowds were (though we were at the parks each day at opening). During the time spent in the parks (6 days), our longest wait was 20 minutes to get on any ride. In fact, on quite a few of the kids' favorite rides we were able to ride twice consecutively without waiting. I do not know if this was an aberation or the norm, due to the fact it was our only trip (so far!!) to WDW.
 
wE took a short trip 2/17 - 7/20. It still wasn't too bad because I guess the crowds really start in February with the Daytona 500. That was on the 20th. If I ever go again in February, it would be the week before - probably the week you are going. It is nice and warm, but not hot. We got cold one night only when we were at Epcot. (Drinking frozen margaritas like the fools we are)
 
I was just there this past Feb 13 - 19. It was perfect! The weather was nice everyday and the parks were not over crowded. I was like you very spoiled going in early Dec but Feb seems to be great also! :)
