wich parks to go with a 4 year-old

[luciana]

I will be traveling to orlando next october with my 4 yo boy.
I have only 5 days to spend. Wich park are the best for my son ?
Since he does not speak english I believe he will not enjoy the shows.
Of course I want to spend one day at MK and one day at Sea World (he loves the animals). I was suggested to skipp MGM and Universal studios. I was told MGM is not worthy and Universal is a park for older children and teens.
Please any suggestion will be appreciated.

(apologies for my poor english)

Our boys have always enjoyed Universal, but Islands of Adventure may have slightly less to offer (though there is still plenty they can do there).

I'd suggest Magic Kingdom, SeaWorld, Animal Kingdom and if you want to add a Universal park, Universal Studios would be the one.

I've been to Disneyland Paris a few times and even though I don't speak French I still enjoyed the shows. Your son might, too, since they are very colorful, with good music and dancing. I wouldn't rule them out.

luciana-

What are shows and cartoons that your child likes? Can you have him/her define what scares them? In many cases (this applies to all parks) you're looking at attractions that can be loud and dark. At four years old, some children are great with them, some aren't. Have you taken them to a movie? If they can handle that, they can handle many of the indoor shows, but remember shows like Terminator, Shrek and rides like Jimmy Neutron, ET, MIB, and EQ are loud.

Just some thoughts to keep in mind while planning.
