Which Disney park is best for 2.5 year olds?

So they should also be on your list when visiting Disney World with toddlers. Now, those parks have less for toddlers than Magic Kingdom and Epcot.

but the short answer is yes, every Disney World park is good for toddlers. Epcot, despite being most known for its festival scene, has seven rides without a height requirement.

Not only do kids under 3 get into the Parks for free, but they also eat for free at select buffet or family-style restaurants, which is perfect considering most of them steal bites off mom and dad's plates anyway.

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.

Disney World definitely has more attractions for young kids, and Universal Studios might look like it just has thrill rides. But we like to wander the themed areas to watch street artists before casually catching character parades — without needing to queue up beforehand.

Walt Disney World's Animal Kingdom is the the biggest of Disney's theme parks, but it is also the easiest to navigate with a baby or toddler. If this is your first visit to Walt Disney World and you are planning on spending a few days in the parks, Animal Kingdom is a great one to start with.

The short answer to whether or not Epcot is for kids is yes — the park is a great place for kids. It's not as obviously kid-friendly as theme parks such as the Magic Kingdom Park, but Epcot has both attractions and activities that are geared toward children.

If you're more interested in large rides like roller coasters, Universal is going to be your best bet. The same is true if you're a big fan of Harry Potter. If you don't mind some of the more family-friendly rides or you have little ones to bring along, Disney may be a better option.

Walt Disney World Epcot – Best for Ages 8 to 14 It's a great theme park for intellectually curious kids (and adults) but not the best for little kids under the age of 8. Older kids will enjoy some of the major thrill rides (like Test Track and Mission: SPACE) and may really enjoy World Showcase.

EPCOT is one of the biggest parks of all and takes a whole day easy. The illuminations at 9pm is worth staying for. AK is also fairly large. The up and down is, you could do it, you will lose around 1 to 2 hours going between parks and you probably wont see 50% of what both parks offer.
