Welcome to planDisney, Patricia!
I am a mama of a 4-year-old AND an 18-month-old. I love my little Mouseketeers, and I’m excited to chat with you about a Disney World Resort that is great for young children! Thanks for visiting us with this incredible question!
My family loves
Art of Animation Resort when traveling to the Disney World Resort Hotels! I’ll let you know why we love this Resort so much! First, the theming is incredible. We love the Big Blue Pool (Nemo themed), the Cozy Cone Pool (Cars themed), and the Flippin’ Fins Pool, featuring the “Under the Sea Orchestra” (Little Mermaid themed). All of these pools are so fun, and the little ones love the theming. We also love the access to the
Disney Skyliner, which makes traveling to EPCOT and Hollywood Studios a breeze. We much prefer this mode of transportation over the buses, monorail, and boats, as it is a continuously loading mode of transportation, and my 4-year-old feels like it is a ride!
We love staying in the Family Suites at Art of Animation. We like the Cars Family Suites the best, but the Finding Nemo Family Suites were also really lovely when we visited! We love that there are 2 full-sized bathrooms, plenty of space for everyone to spread out, and decorations that make you feel like you are a part of the movie!
Art of Animation also has
Landscape of Flavors, a dining hall available for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks for in between! I always enjoy their salads and seasonal cheesecakes!
While many hotels are great around Disney World, Patricia, I really feel that Art of Animation is the winner for a 4-year-old. (I’ve stayed at many of these hotels, and I’ll always choose Art of Animation for so many reasons for my little family!) If you have additional questions about other hotels, we’re happy to give more information to you!
See ya real soon,
Allyn
