Which Park twice?

In order but you could always play it by ear with what they like the most.

Magic Kingdom - 2 Park days are really like 1 at the other parks so much to do

Animal Kingdom - If they love animals and there are really long shows which you might not want to jam in to a single day

Epcot - roughly 2x the number of Rides/Shows for a little kid, plus all of the kidcot stuff as well, with the aquarium your kids possibly would get caught up there for a while

Hollywood Studios - some already consider it a half day park (no other park has as big of a reputation for this). Your biggest obstacle here is Toystory Land being packed. If you are going after Star Wars opens maybe this slightly changes but you have to figure out if your kids would get lost in the ambiance as there isn't much for little kids to "do".

I would honestly make a list of everything you want to do with them and start from there planning out your days and seeing if there is a park you will have to rush more than the others.
 
I would pick AK or DHS for fast pass planning but agree that it should be your last day so you can be flexible based on how your experiences were on the first day at each park.
 

For kids that age, AK. Lots of things for them to see and do.
HS would be good with TSL, but the lines are long and no shade for them during the day.
 
We dud six days too with single day tix. We did MK on a tues and thurs. And we chose AK on monday and saturday. We chose AK bc we felt it was more stimulating and we could explore at our our pace. We also did safari 4x FOP 2x Navi 2x and Kali 2x plus all the trails and Caring for Giants. EEv was down...
 
Epcot. You could do one day at World Showcase and the other at Future World. Or, you could always choose to do a Disney Springs/resort day instead.
 
EPCOT is my people watching park for sure, especially world showcase.
 
AK because HS doesn’t have enough to do for young kids, EP unless it’s the holidays, WS is sort of boring for most kids only a few attractions in FW. AK has the 3 shows including Flights of Wonder, sometimes the animal show at Rafiki, 2 treks, animals.
 
I will be spending six days in the parks, 1 park per day tickets, and I already know I will be going to the Magic Kingdom twice. Which other park would be good to do twice with preschoolers and a young elementary child?
Whichever park has your favorite attraction.
 
It wasn't clear from your original post, but I hope you have a few "rest days" scheduled into your trip? With kids of that age, going full tilt with 6 park days in a row is A LOT. If you are only actually at Disney for 6 or 7 days, I would do a "rest day" at the pool or a water park, etc., instead of planning another park day. 5 days in the parks should be plenty at that age...

Yes, I have planned a non-park day. Right now the plan is to go to EPCOT on arrival day, two full days at MK, EPCOT again, and the rest one day each, with a non-park day somewhere in there. Thank you all for the replies!
 
What time of year are you going? For some reason, AK seems more brutal to me in the summer than the other parks...

My vote would be a 3rd day at MK! So many attractions that are child friendly... (and rides that kids happily ride over and over)
 
Voting for Epcot. Epcot area wise is the largest park. There is more than enough to do over the span of two days and add to that another day of being able to make dining reservations in Epcot. There is a huge variety of restaurants. My kids loved Epcot at that age. The more inquisitive one enjoyed the aquariums, exploring the counties, and kid’s educational games in Future world, and the daredevil loved Test Track, Mission Space, and Soarin.
