    Hi Sarah!  Congratulations on your first visit!  Make sure that you stop by the Guest Relations location at Epcot on that first Monday and get your "First Time Visit" buttons.  

    I think that you have done a wonderful job planning your family's first Walt Disney World vacation.  It looks like you will have just the right amount of time to see the parks and take part in your favorite attractions.  To help you out, I have named a few of my family's must-do's.

    At Epcot my kids love Turtle Talk With Crush.  It is a "totally tubular" time that your 6 year old will love and I am pretty sure your oldest will even enjoy.  Taking a spin on Test Track Presented by Chevrolet is also a must and my oldest son loves completing the missions in Agent P's World Showcase Adventure.

    At Animal Kingdom, your boys may love testing their bravery on Expedition Everest-Legend of the Forbidden Mountain (as long as they are 44 in. or taller) and your whole family will enjoy a ride through Kilimanjaro Safaris to view all the animals. 

    Lastly, at the Magic Kingdom we all have personal favorites. Splash Mountain, Space Mountain and Big Thunder Mountain Railroad are all high on that list as well as Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin, Pirates of the Caribbean and Haunted Mansion.  

    Have a wonderful trip and if there is anything else I can help you with, please come back and let me know!

Meet the Panelist: Lauren, Colorado

Hi-ya, Pals! I'm Lauren, a wife and mother of three who's enjoyed many special occasions at Walt Disney World Resort with my family and friends. From graduations to birthdays, and even our Fairy Tale Honeymoon we’ve loved celebrating at the most Magical Place on Earth. I now have pre-teens who check wait times in the My Disney Experience App just for fun, so I look for any excuse to return "home" often and would love to help you plan a little extra Pixie Dust for your next magical adventure.
