Time needed for each park

[shannonstar]

trying to mail our plans down in something other than jello. Party of 4 (2 adults, 14 & 4)

We have 9 days and so far I have:
1 day Legoland
2 days Universal
1 1/2 days Animal Kingdom
2 days Magic Kingdom
1 1/2 days Epcot
1 day Hollywood Studios

I worry about not having enough time at Hollywood Studios, but it doesn't seem to have as much to take our time.

We will also do late hours one night at MK and EP which aren't in the original plans.

That looks good to me. You'll be exhausted with no time off, but you'll cover a lot.

I think HS has only 5 "rides". The rest are shows. I think one day there is enough.

Be sure to use FP+ for all the popular attractions. Hopefully you are staying on site so you can book them 60 days in advance.

I agree with one day being enough at HS. I read about most people doing 1/2 days there too. But 1 day ensures you gets everything!
We usually go for about that long and plan a rest day. 3 days at Universal with 1 day being a rest and 7 at Disney with 1 1/2 being a rest. But we go in August so we need those breaks

Until the new Star Wars and Toy Story lands open, I'd say 1 day at HS is plenty. For our coming trip, we are planning HS for the day after our MNSSHP. We will be sleeping in that day and aren't planning to arrive at HS until around 11:00, so not even a full day.

Looks good. We are on our way home as I type this. We are with two 12 year olds and they said that Epcot was their least favorite park. That being said with the evening extra magic hours we were able to hit all of the major attractions in one day. Use that other half of a day as a wild card for a park you (or kids pick) might want to go back to after visiting.

Looks good - we like to squeeze a non-park day in between to relax! Have Fun!

Looks good.

Your plans look good to me. If you're unsure, you might try to "make the rounds" before you get to the 2nd day and extra 1/2 days. After visiting them all once, you may decide that you like HS better than AK or Epcot and choose to switch your 1/2 day (or some other similar scenario).
