Walt Disney Children’s World
My family loves going to the happiest place on earth! There’s a lot to do and a lot of fun in Orlando’s parks! ! Everyone had a great time as we walked through this amazing place and all our worries seemed to melt away.
We always take our young kids to Disneyland and find them just as much fun as us, if not more. It’s amazing how Disney makes every park fun for all ages, and today I’m going to share with you all the fun that preschoolers at Walt Disney World can find.
Last vacation, our preschoolers were four, two and one. How much can they really do at Walt Disney World Park? Answer? A ton! ! In fact, they can do pretty much anything except bigger rides, and I’m sure they’re fine.
Walt Disney World Resort has four parks (Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, Hollywood Studios and Epcot) with countless rides, shows, activities and more that our youngest can do with us. Not only are they able to take part in all the fun, but they love the activities and have requested return visits.
