New to Disney...Which theme parks with only two days to visit?

[Wendy Hughes]

I'm planning a quick trip to Disney and will only spend 2 days in the parks. We have never been before but we're within driving distance (about a 6 hr drive). The kids are 5 (boy), 11 (girl), 13 (boy) and 17 (girl). None of them like thrill rides which is one of the reasons that we haven't gone yet. What else is there to do other than rides? No one is into princesses but my 5 year old son loves typical boy characters. Which parks would you recommend for a two day stay?

Thanks so much!

I'd recommend Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom, at this time. The other two parks have some major attractions currently closed to be replaced or refurbished.

There are some slow rides at all the parks, especially at the Magic Kingdom. There are shows, restaurants, and opportunities to meet characters. Plenty to do without thrill rides.

Epcot and MK if you had to pick only two. Although we were there for a 3 day trip once and were able to squeeze in a third park in a day. We got up early for Rope drop at Epcot and headed to Animal Kingdom at lunch time. At about 3 or 4pm we then headed to MK and finished the day there until around 11pm. We were exhausted the next day after we did that but it was a ton of fun.
