Mobile Favourite rides for (just turning) 4 year old?

Our Son will be turning 4 when we are in Florida in September, we have already taken him to Paris for his 3rd birthday and he’s been to Florida when he was 20 months also, but we don’t want to do loads of park visits this time.

What are the ‘must do’ rides and parks for a 4 year old do you think? For example we weren’t going to bother with Epcot or Universal this time but just wondered what everyone’s thoughts where? Xx

My kids from a very early age have always loved Epcot, various activities in the countries for them to do...

When my daughter was 4 her favourite was Thunder Mountain and Soarin’
When my son was 4 his favourites were Tower of Terror and Soarin’
My youngest will be 4 this time, but much shorter than her siblings were, hoping she’ll make the 40” mark
How tall is your son? That might influence your choice

My son was 4 just before our first visit last year.
He loved soarin, 7dmt, splash mountain, btmr, buzz and tsm. Most talked about since home are splash mountain and soarin!

Our DD was 4 on our last trip and loved 7DMT, Splash Mountain and Test Track - got to the point where she was asking if things went faster! 😄 can't wait for our next trip when she will be tall enough for Expedition Everest; not sure if she will be up for rock n roller coaster though 🙈

This is similar to me! When my eldest was 4 I remember him measuring 42 inches and he went on everything he could and loved it. My youngest will be almost 4 when we go in August (birthday early Sept) and he is currently measuring 35inches I can't believe the difference! No chance he's going to grow that much but still plenty to enjoy!

My 4 year old son loved test track, soarin, 7DMT, BTMR, and toy story. He went on TOT and splash mountain and enjoyed them (saying TOT was crazy) but wasnt in a hurry to go back on. My boy loves anything with wheels so if you ask what his favourite ride at Disney was, he says the transportation buses!
