Two Theme Parks?

Jen in Maine · 10-13-2008

We are going on a very short trip in January. . . we are only purchasing 2 day passes,magic your way, with no park hopping. Jordan, my daughter, is 6 and she has been 3 times already, so need to decide on the two parks we should do. . .what would you do?

Jennatrz · 10-13-2008

First off which parks has she been to? If you said MK, then I would say still go to MK and then go to DHS. The new TSM ride is quite a big hit! I would also look to find which parks have EMH.

Jen in Maine · 10-13-2008

I think MK is a given, trying to decide between DHS and the AK. What is the new ride at DHS?

**Dana** · 10-13-2008

With only two days and a six year old, I would go to MK and Epcot. They are two parks that you can easily spend the entire day at and still have stuff to do. AK and MGM are not open to close parks and I think your passes will be wasted. If Epcot is not for you, go to MGM which takes a little more time to tour than AK.

I agree with Jennatrz, you have to go to MK and we had such a good time at TSM @DHS and the block party parade was a blast.

I agree! Epcot is my DD8 and DD4 favorite park! You have the full living seas to explore, Nemo ride, turtle talk with crush . . . innovations east and west (both with new attractions) soarin', figment, club cool, Spaceship Earth, Test Track, etc.

Then as you travel "around the world" she will be able to meet and greet all her favorite characters and make a kidcot mask . . . lots of fun, and like Dana said a FULL DAYS WORTH!

MK and DHS.

Big Al · 10-13-2008

I'd vote MK and Epcot.

Are you keeping a running total

nanu57v · 10-13-2008

MK and NOT AK. I'm stuck between EP and HS.

LRTJS · 10-13-2008

It would all depend on the child. If they are animal lovers I don't see how you could pass up AK and of course MK> With my kids it would have been MGM and Epcot!

FireAngel · 10-13-2008

My daughter who is also 6 and almost lives in WDW

fav parks are MK and Epcot

HappyCamper · 10-13-2008

MK, without a doubt.

EpCot would be my vote...Living Seas, Turtle Talk, passport and mask making, fun, educational, street performances, good food, relaxing and enjoyable for parents too...

emamasa · 10-13-2008

MK and Epcot - without a doubt! my girls are 5 and almost 8 - and those would be their choices for sure! have fun!!!

**MissDisney** · 10-14-2008

MK and DHS would get my vote... AK is marvelous, but I would still choose DHS to get into Muppetvision, Beauty & Beast, Toy Story Mania, Great Movie Ride and Fantasmic!, plus all those cool things to see in the parade!

dancing4disney · 10-14-2008

Toy Story Mania is the new ride at DHS..it is very popular. I haven't seen it.
I would probably do MK and Epcot as there is more to do at both places.
