    Planing first trip in October. We will have a very petite 3 year old girl and a 4 1/2 yer old boy. Trying to determine how long 4, 6 or 7 days. Unsure??? Also, what kind of tickets to purchse, the park hopper or not. We will probably stay at Magic Kingdom

    Hi Shannon - your kids are about the same age as mine were when we visited Walt Disney World as a family last year (except my daughter is older).  I think you can really visit for as long as you'd like.  We generally visit the parks for six days, which allows us to see most of the "must-sees" for our family (and we do a few things several times).

    I'd highly recommend park hopper tickets.  Having a park hopper is a great way to do everything you want to do, and since you need valid ticket admission to dine at the restaurants in the parks, you'll be able to eat at one park and visit a different one.

    Have a great vacation!
