Day 2 - Orlando
Disney's Animal Kingdom:
Another family favorite park from Walt Disney World. The Disney's Animal Kingdom is big and involves a lot of walking. So make sure you have a stroller for little one even for preschoolers who can walk. You don't want to carry them at the end of the day.
With the size and the heat that can take a toll on the little ones, it's best to go in with a plan. Kids will love the ride on Kilimanjaro Safari. Then hop on the Wildlife Express Train to the Conservation Station where kids will have a chance to meet domestic animals. Escape the heat to the comfort of indoor theater for 3-D movie, It's Tough to be a Bug.
Take a lunch break at the jungle-themed restaurant - The Rain Forest Cafe for a fun simulated weather patterns and animated animals.
Disney's Blizzard Beach:
After an exhausting morning, a break in the water is a big welcome for the whole family. The Disney's Blizzard Beach is a perfect place to escape the heat and relax.
Parents for preschoolers and younger kids can put up their command center at the Tike's Peak where kids can enjoy the fun in their own watery play area.
Big kids or tweens can enjoy relaxing lazy river at the Cross Country Creek. For a more thrill seekers, there are many options to test your limit.
Celebration:
End your day with a visit to this planned small town that make you feel like you are in a whole new world.

Day 3 - Orlando
Universal Studios & Islands of Adventure:
For family with school-age kids, Universal Studio and Islands of Adventure might satisfy them more than Disney World. With the announcing of highly anticipated new Wizarding World of Harry Potter, my kids (and myself) are very excited and are looking forward to visiting soon.
Downtown Disney:
Enjoy the evening after a long day at the park at the Downtown Disney Market. You can stroll along the boardwalk and check out many specialty stores likes World of Disney Store, Lego Store or Once Upon a Toy. Then treat your kids for a good behavior to the ice cream from Ghirardelli Soda Fountain & Chocolate Shop.

Day 4 - Orlando
SeaWorld Orlando or Discovery Cove:
For marine animal lovers, the SeaWorld Orlando will be a perfect fit for the whole family. There are various marine live shows throughout the day. So start your day with a good plan to make sure you don't miss out on your must-see live shows.
And if you have kids who always dream about swimming with a dolphin, Discovery Cove will be the answer for them.
Lake Eola Park & Downtown Orlando:
In the evening, head up I-4 to the Downtown Orlando and enjoy a leisure evening at Lake Eola Park. If you still have some energy from a fun day in SeaWorld, you can enjoy a paddle boat in the lake or a walk around the lake.
