Does a 6 year old need a stroller at Disney World?

Sort of depends on your 4 year old. AK has lots to do; Safari, River Journey, Bugs Life, lots of animals to look at. Epcot also has stuff but it isn't really designed for toddlers. The Pavilions all have something suitable, Frozen and Ratatouille are great but not much else in the world showcase.

Disneyland. Much like Magic Kingdom, Disneyland is my top choice for 5-year-olds because it offers classic Disney Magic. Walking down Mainstreet towards the castle will excite kids of all ages. In Adventure land, kids can experience the timeless journey of the Jungle Cruise and run through Tarzans' Tree House.
