Preliminary Plan, feedback much appreciated

[BellaO]

We plan on coming in 9/30-10/9... so both those days we probably won't do any park activity.
On 10/3 we are planning for MNSSHP
On 10/8 we are planning BBB and CRT for daughter's birthday.

I am a single parent coming with a 13 (boy) 12 (boy) and 4 yr old (girl).

Any suggestions on which parks to hit on those other days? Was thinking of MK on the 1st... should we do another day there as well?

Sorry for all my questions and thank everyone in advance! You guys are the reason I feel like I can pull this off

Have your son's watched Avatar? Animal Kingdom would be my recommendation.

By your dates it looks like you'd have 8 park days ! You didn't say if you got PH added to your tickets. But without hopping, I'd do 3 days at MK, 2 days at AK (new Avatar rides), and at least 1 day at HS and EPCOT. That still leaves you one day to return to another park the kids liked best. If you have park hoppers you can do all kinds of combinations. We do one park in the AM and early afternoon, take a break and do a different park at night.

Do you always go back to hotel for break/nap?
I'm afraid I'm going to get everyone back to the hotel room, and then nobody will nap.

I would definitely suggest breaks. Even if its spent at the pool. How many park days are you planning? All or a break in there as well?

I'm kind of aiming for mornings at the park, midday nap, park in the afternoon/evening?
The 3rd were planning MNSSHP so I'm not sure what we'll do in the morning. And if we stay up late, not sure how the 4th will go, if that makes sense?

That's the best way to do it! The day of the party I'd just sleep in and hangout by the pool until heading to the party at 4. You want to make sure you last and are rested to be able to enjoy it. The 4th I'd do the same thing sleep in then have lunch at the resort and mid afternoon fastpasses booked at a park.

Yes! I love this idea!
