Before you say “impossible,” hear me out haha

We did a full Disney trip (5 park days with 1 day at each park and 2 at MK in February). At the time, my 2.5 year old daughter wasn’t really into princesses so we focused on Mickey and crew.

Well, wouldn’t you know it, one month later, and she is obsessed with the princesses. Soooo, I’ve convinced my husband to go back for a very quick trip end of April before she turns 3 😂

Because it’s last minute, I’m failing at snagging Cinderella’s Royal Table (have alerts set), but I was able to snag dinner at Akershus.

Is it insane to do MK in the morning - go for early entry and hit the few rides she loved and focus on princess meeting (Ariel in Grotto, Enchanted Tales, Meet Cinderella, Meet Tiana), then monorail to Epcot, hit the few rides she loved there, do dinner at Akershus, and take Skyliner back to resort?

We’d be doing Genie+ which worked really well for us last time.

She napped in her stroller last trip, so that would be the hope.
 
I don’t think it’s crazy if you don’t mind a fairly non-stop day, though you could probably even do a short mid-day break at the resort depending how late you plan to stay at Epcot.

Between early entry and Genie+, you can probably get most rides done at MK in the early morning (make sure you get to MK at least 30-45 mins before early entry starts!).

If you do the mid-day break, you can try stacking Lightning Lanes later in the day for Epcot.

The one thing is that you’d miss the parade and fireworks at MK, if you care about those things.
 
It’s not crazy at all! Your plan is entirely doable, and less crazy than a lot of folks. And if she naps all the better!

I thought you were going to say MK, Epcot, MK, which to me is still very doable!
 

You can do as many parks as you like. I'm sure you know you aren't completely doing either park, and that's fine sometimes. The day sounds fun.
