Hi Danielle,
Thanks for vising the Disney Parks Moms Panel!
It’s so great to hear you’re planning your first Walt Disney World vacation for you and your boys. My wife and I took our son at both those ages and we have so many great memories of our fun experiences.
Our son loved the super-over-sized fun found at
Disney's Pop Century Resort. While we have not yet stayed at
Disney's Art of Animation Resort, I would race Lightning McQueen to get to a
Cars Family Suite, or even do my Hakuna Matata happy dance to stay in a Lion King Family Suite.
Disney's Caribbean Beach Resort offers Pirate-themed rooms, though the Resort is currently undergoing refurbishments.
Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge is a favorite Walt Disney World Resort Hotel of ours. The tranquility, exotic environs, and view of nature and wildlife are incomparable.
Our son also really, really enjoyed
Bay Lake Tower at Disney's Contemporary Resort (where we’re Disney vacation Club Members) right next to
Disney's Contemporary Resort because he was thrilled to just walk right over to Magic Kingdom Park.
I'm sure you'll find the perfect accommodations to make your vacation magic.
Enjoy your Disney!
Jerry
