Mobile Is June busy and am I crazy looking at booking with our 4 year old?

So our son is in reception but doesn’t turn 4 until August so thinking of taking him out at the beginning of June to go for 2 weeks. Have found what we think is a decent price of flights, tickets, transfers and accommodation in wide world of sport for £3.5k for all of us.

Here are my questions 1 is it a good price
2 is June crazy busy
3 is he too young?

He’s never been abroad thanks yall

I think the price isn't the best but not super unrealistic either. June is busy but not the craziest and definitely not too young.

We went in June 2017 with out daughter who was 18 months at the time as we got married in Florida and we are going back slightly earlier next year now she is 4. It was also our daughters first time abroad so we didn't account for enough rest time but not making that mistake this time with a lot more pool days planned.

1) No idea as we don’t know how many are going and where the flights are from and to!

2) Early June is good, May is even better.

3) Definitely not too young!

The price seems ok for flights, accommodation and tickets.

June will be pretty busy, you can take a look at the Wait times - history on the menu on the side to get an idea.

I don't have children, but plenty of dibbers have travelled with 3 or 4 year olds.

Not sure if you have been before, but if not be prepared for it to rain everyday in June - it’s the wettest month to visit

Been in June before, earlier the better as the last week is noticeably busier. His age is great for Disney, especially character meets. It will rain but probably for an hour or so each afternoon. However it’s usually very localised and if it’s raining in one place it can be beautiful sunny skies a few miles away, so just be prepared to move on to another attraction. (That said, it’s like anywhere else in the world and you can always get hit with a bad spell)

1. If that includes park tickets I think that’s an OK price
2. Nearly every time we’ve been has been end of June/beginning of July, which is busier than when you’ll go, and it’s manageable
3. Not at all. We’re taking our son who’ll be 4.5 next year, took his older brother when he was the same age - definitely think about taking or renting a buggy though

We went in June this year. We also did book to go back on 2nd June but had to move it due to eldests phonics week and school. So changed ours to May.

I like June. Didn’t find it too bad at all.

Our kids were 3.5 and nearly 5. So your little one will be just older than my youngest was.

We had an amazing time. Didn’t have many problems. Didn’t take a buggy. Did have a few melt downs though but definitely not too young. Mine mention Disney constantly. Cannot wait to go back. Unfortunately they think we can go every year this is the only downside.

I do have a trip report but we were offsite in a villa. We didn’t do onsite. We also went with virgin.

June is nice but much rather May.
Been taking my children since they were 18 months old,eldest is now 17. Think 4 is a wonderful age to go,interested to know why you think it's too young ?
Price looks a lot to me, we always do DIY, May/June you can get really cheap flights.
