    Hi Kimberly!

    Thanks for sending in your question to the Walt Disney World Moms Panel!

    I suggest visiting the independent website TouringPlans.com.  That's the website for the research team behind the tour book "The Unofficial Guide to Walt Disney World".  They are famous in the Disney fan community for creating comprehensive touring plans, which are basically step by step guides in how to experience the parks to minimize your wait in lines.  Their plans are based on a years of data collection and a lot of math; they basically turned each park into the time dependent traveling salesman problem, which is a famous problem in operations research. 

    If you don't want to follow one of their plans, then basically get the bottlenecks and most popular attractions out of the way:  Space Mountain, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, Splash Mountain, and Peter Pan.  However, I think you would maximize your time by following either their one day or two day Magic Kingdom touring plan.

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