MK: Pirates and Jungle Cruise
Studios: TOT and Star Tours
Epcot: Soarin' and Mission Space
AK: Everest and Safari

Based on our last trip with 3yo and almost 5yo boys:

Must do:
MK-Haunted Mansion and POTC (5yo)............Indy cars and WDW train (3yo)
MGM-Car stunt show and Backlot Tour
Epcot-Nemo ride/walk thru and Kidcot (for older DS)
AK-Kilamanjaro Safari and Nemo show

Can do without (of things we tried):
MK-Tom Saywer Island (took to long & not that exciting) and Mickey's house in Toontown
MGM-We liked everything we did, but I found the HSM show loud and annoying
Epcot-We didn't do a lot here so no complaints, but 3yo could've done with out Kidcot stops
AK-Walk thru trails (for Gorilla) Took us too far out of the way and too long. 3yo did NOT like Kali -he got soaked, I felt sooo bad.


My biggest must-do of the trip was Spectro Magic. The kids LOVED it!
