Hi Corinna,
It is always great seeing a question from a fellow Texan! I know you must be excited for your upcoming trip to Walt Disney World. I am always amazed as a mom seeing the magic and wonder through my kids eyes. It makes the trip that much more memorable.
I will offer my suggestions for my favorite attractions from
Magic Kingdom, that I know my daughter loved at that age, but every family is different and you might discover their favorites are completely different after going the first two days. So, please keep that in mind and take their lead.
My daughter's absolute favorite ride since she was two (she is now almost 10) is the Mad Tea Party. She also loved(s) Peter Pan's Flight, which also happens to be my all-time favorite ride! Others include it's a small world, Under the Sea - Journey of the Little Mermaid, Enchanted Tales with Belle, Jungle Cruise, The Magic Carpets of Aladdin, Country Bear Jamboree, and Princess Fairytale Hall meeting the princesses.
If you did not catch it on one of the previous days, I would highly recommend seeing the
Festival of Fantasy parade in the afternoon. The floats are absolutely spectacular and it is a great opportunity to grab a Mickey Bar, stake a spot early along the route, and enjoy the sights and sounds of this magical entertainment. It typically begins at 3 o'clock, but be sure to check a times guide or the
My Disney Experience mobile app the day you visit.
Enjoy your trip. It will be here before you can say "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!'
