I am so excited about your first visit to Walt Disney World! You guys are going to have a blast! At three your son is going to be enraptured by the magic of the parades, characters, shows, and attractions.
First stop- the
Magic Kingdom. After gaping at Cinderella Castle and snapping pictures of your son's wide eyed first glimpse of the park, head to Fantasyland for some classic attractions. Peter Pan's Flight, The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, and "it's a small world" are all found here. A three year old boy would also love the Walt Disney World Railroad and defeating Zorg on Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin. Pick up a Times Guide as you enter the park so you can check on parade times. The Town Square Theater houses Mickey Mouse if your son would like to meet the big cheese.
If you your stay is long enough do visit all three other theme parks. If you have to choose use your son's interests as your criteria for picking additional parks to visit. Disney's Animal Kingdom has an excellent Kilimanjaro Safari Expedition with real exotic African animals as well as a couple of great shows such as Finding Nemo-the Musical. Disney's Hollywood Studios offers a Pixar Pals parade, a car stunt show with Lighting McQueen, and Disney Junior-Live on Stage! At Epcot you can checkout Turtle Talk with Crush, travel through time in Spaceship Earth, and tour the World Showcase.
A character dining experience would be so special for your son. Chef Mickey's for breakfast is my personal favorite. Meet Mickey and Minnie while enjoying an incredible buffet. Try The Crystal Palace if you prefer Winnie the Pooh. Call (407)939-3463 or book online at
