    My children are 7 & 8 and it will be there first time to Disney in June. We will only be there for a long weekend. We plan on going to Magic Kingdom. Which other park, if any, would you suggest? We realistically have two days in the parks.

    Hi Naray!

    You definitely made a great choice in selecting the Magic Kingdom.  For the second park, I recommend either Epcot or Disney's Hollywood Studios.  I have two sons and at that age, my oldest liked Epcot, while my still 7 year old loves Disney's Hollywood Studios.  I think both have a lot of things for kids, though most of the attractions for children in Epcot are in Future World and not in the World Showcase.

    I do suggest saving the Magic Kingdom for your second day at Walt Disney World.  The Magic Kingdom is spectacular and a lot of children get spoiled by it!  Thus I recommend seeing one of the other parks first and saving the best for last.

    I do recommend picking up the book "The Complete Walt Disney World" by Julie and Mike Neal.  It's a great book for first timers with just the right amount of information and tips.  It's also a beautiful book filled with fabulous pictures.  It can help you make a decision between the other parks!

    Good luck and write back if you have any more questions!
