    Hi, my girlfriend and I have been disney passholders for a year now, and this is the first were taking our nephew to the parks for 3 days and 3 nights. We want to plan this trip for him hes 6, any ideas? Thank you

    Hi Christopher!

    You should definitely plan to spend a lot of time in the Magic Kingdom. After that it is not so clear; my youngest son loved Disney's Hollywood Studios at that age, but my oldest son loved Epcot. 

    Whatever you do, be sure to make some Advance Dining Reservations (ADRs).  When each was six, my sons loved Chef Mickey's, Whispeing Canyon Cafe, Sci Fi Dine In Theater, Tusker House, breakfast at Ohana, breakfast at Cape May Cafe, Crystal Palace, and 1900 Park Fare. 

    You might also think about the Pirates and Pals Fireworks Voyage. A lot of young children are scared by the loud noises involved with watching the fireworks from the Magic Kingdom. Pirates and Pals allows you to watch them from the Seven Seas Lagoon which is less scary. Another option is to watch them from the beach at the Polynesian Resort. 

    I hope this helps. Please write back with more questions.
