Any advice or tips for after Easter trip?

We are planning to go two weeks after Easter for 7 days and are bringing a 7 year old and 16 year old... I keep reading about how packed the parks are around Easter!

How packed is packed?

Does the attendance slow down after Easter?

Does anyone have a guess at the average wait time for attractions during that time frame? With a 7 year old this is a BIGGIE!

Any strategies that have worked?

Better days to attend certain parks?

I have read the the guide books ( and most of the posts on DC) but would love to hear any additional personal experience tips!

Thanks!
~Zoey

how soon after easter are you planning on going? the 2 weeks before and after are when its the most crowded ..it seems the reason for this is so many school have their spring break around easter.
I think as long as you take advantage of the early entry (if your staying on-site), use FP's and leave later as the park gets crowded, go to another park ..or take a break at the resort it wouldnt be so bad no matter how crowded the parks were. I know that in our experience ..if its crowded at MK ..we go to Disney Studios and its not crowded ..or if its crowded at Epcot we go over to AK and there isnt a crowd.
