    We have three days and a choice of 4 parks, my grandchildren are 4 and 7 which park should we eliminate, we are not interested in park hopping, grandma can't move that fast.

    Cheri, considering you are taking two young children to Walt Disney World I would say you are an awesome, fast moving grandma.

    Absolutely visit the Magic Kingdom. This classic theme park is the one you must see. Cinderella Castle, Jungle Cruise, Pirates of the Caribbean, Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin, parades, and fireworks are all here. As you travel from Fantasyland to Tomorrowland to Adventureland and beyond you will never run out of fun. 

    Disney's Hollywood Studios would be another good park choice, especially if your grandkids like the Disney Channel and Pixar. Toy Story Mania, Disney Channel Rocks!, Pixar Countdown to Fun parade, and Disney Jr Live on Stage! can be found in this park. Classic Disney stories such as Beauty and the Beast and The Little Mermaid are spectacularly brought to life onstage here.

    Also consider Disney's Animal Kingdom as one of your parks to visit. What child doesn't love animals? Kilimanjaro Safari is an excellent open air vehicle journey through an African like landscape full of exotic animals. The Boneyard is an amazing play area with loads of multiple story slides and sand pits full of dinosaur bones to uncover.

    Epcot does have much to offer but this park would be my vote for the one to skip with two young ones. Save this park for your next visit.

    This trip will be the one your grandchildren will remember. One day they will probably try to recreate the experience with their own grandchildren. Thank you for making such magical memories possible for your two sweeties.

    Please contact me if you have additional questions on where to stay or eat, attractions and shows to consider, or great places to take a break.
