Must DO -- AGE 2 ???

[CheapMom]

What are the best attractions or things to do at the parks (all 4) for my 23 month old.
We went when he was 14 months old and he liked meeting characters (especially Mickey) a lot. He was afraid at Mickey's Philharmagic so we didn't take him into any other movies/shows. But I think now he is ready for stuff like Playhouse Disney.

We just got back from our trip last night. Our must do's for our 2 year old are Playhouse Disney Live, Pooh, carousel, Dumbo, Alladin's carpets, Tea cups, Philharmagic, Imagination station at Epcot, Triceratops Spin, Dino dig sandpit, and Peter Pan. Enjoy your trip!

My daughter went for the 1st time on her 2nd birthday and her all time favorite was Spaceship Earth at Epcot! All of the lights at the beginning and end of the attraction were her favorite parts, but she really loved it all. Of course Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh was also a highlight. She laughed the whole time we were on the TTA....I think she loved being able to see so much since we were high up. The carousel was another favorite. Oh, she also really enjoyed El Rio del Tiempo in the Mexico pavillion at Epcot. The Living Seas at Epcot was another favorite.....we couldn't get her out of there!

We did Playhouse Disney at MGM, but that's about it. At AK she loved Kilamanjaro Safaris....the petting area at Rafiki's Planted Watch...and the Lion and Gorilla Exhibits.

Remember if you ever need a rest inside the parks to stop by the Baby Care Center near Space Mountain. My dd watched tv for 1/2 hour while dh and I sat on comfy couches and relaxed.

Have fun!!

My DD4 and DS4 (yep-twins!) took their first trip when they had just turned 2. Some of their favorites at that time were in Mk-It's a small world, dumbo, Mickey and Minnies house in toontown, the train, Tom Sawyer's Island, Pooh, and the playground in toontown. In MGM playhouse Disney, Honey I stunk the kids playground,and the beauty and the beast show. In Epcot- spaceshipe earth, living seas, journey to imagination and the boat ride in mexico. In AK lion king show, boneyard playground (especially the dig site across the bridge) triceretop spin, and the petting zoo at the back. Their favorite thing by far was the monorail, any boat they could get on and yes, the disney buses ( they loved the buses!)
