Sample 5-Day Itinerary for Families with Younger Children

Day 1
Start with the all-time favourite. Spend a day of fantasy at the Magic Kingdom Park. If you can, try to fit in a Character Breakfast or dinner at one of the Magic Kingdom Resort Area Hotels. They're just a quick monorail ride from the Park.

Day 2
Enjoy a day of discovery at Epcot and have dinner at one of the fine international restaurants in World Showcase at Epcot. Don't worry, all the restaurants also feature a children's menu for fussy eaters.

Day 3
Step into the bright lights of the glamorous world of entertainment at the Disney-MGM Studios. In the evening, you're just a short coach ride from Disney's BoardWalk, where you can find lots of fun places to eat and play.

Day 4
Get an early start and explore Disney's Animal Kingdom Theme Park. When the sun goes down, check out the Downtown Disney nightlife. Parents can enjoy a night out on their own at Pleasure Island, while the children spend the evening with an in-room baby-sitter if you're staying at a Disney Hotel.

Day 5
Splash into one of Disney's Water Parks. The children will love the slides while parents will love a chance to just relax in the warm Florida sunshine. In the late afternoon, plan to return to the Magic Kingdom Park for one last chance to experience the attractions you missed the first day or ride favourites one more time.
