Welcome to planDisney Melissa! I’m so excited to hear that you’re celebrating your daughter’s 10th birthday at
Walt Disney World Resort what a magical way to mark such a special occasion! Staying at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge will make the trip even more unforgettable. I’d love to help you plan the best park order so you can make the most of your time and create incredible memories together!
Since you’ll be visiting the parks from Sunday to Tuesday, I’d recommend starting with
EPCOT on Sunday. Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom tend to be busier on weekends, while EPCOT absorbs crowds well as it is more spread out. Plus, if you’re staying at a Deluxe Resort like Animal Kingdom Lodge, you can take advantage of
Extended Evening Theme Park Hours at EPCOT that night, if it is being offered, for extra time in the park with lower wait times.
On Monday,
Magic Kingdom would be a great choice. While it’s still a popular park on Mondays, it’s the perfect place for a birthday celebration. You can maximize your time by booking
Lightning Lane Passes for popular attractions like Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, Tron Lightcycle / Run, and Peter Pan’s Flight.
Finally, I’d suggest visiting
Animal Kingdom on Tuesday. This park tends to have lower crowds on weekdays, making it a great way to end your trip on a more relaxed note. You’ll have plenty of time to explore
Pandora – The World of Avatar, go on Kilimanjaro Safaris, and enjoy Festival of the Lion King before heading back to Animal Kingdom Lodge. This plan gives you a great balance of excitement and relaxation while avoiding the busiest park days.
I hope you find this information helpful Melissa. Should you have any further questions, please feel free to
reach out to me directly and I'll gladly assist! Thank you again for visiting planDisney. We'll see ya real soon!
