You may also want to consider the Akershus Royale Banquet Hall if she likes the princesses. The kids get to promenade around the room with the princesses during the meal. But get an early reservation time otherwise the wait is a little too long! We always like Crystal Palace with Winnie the Pooh and the Garden Grill.

Hi the main thing we would say is take time to relax and enjoy where you are, with a young one just remember they will get tired, hot and bothered. Probably good to get to parks early and then take time to chill from lunch time and then perhaps pop out for the evening meal and perhaps fireworks, after a night at the park then the next morning take it easy by the pool or a bit of retail therapy and then plan something for the afternoon.

If you can get a pre-opening reservation for BOG then do so as it means you can then ride SDMT with a minimal queue and its very good value for money on the DDP.

Personally I would only do a park breakfast if I could get a pre-opening reservation and so be done by the time the park opened.

We first took our daughter when she was 4 and our plan was 2 park days, followed by a water park, followed by 2 park days and then another water park or a more lazy day. I would only attempt EMH once or twice especially if you are relying on the buses to get you there. e.g to make the most of EMH at AK we needed to be at the bus stop by 7 (no later) to get to the park well before 8 which meant getting up just gone 6am.

Although you will have lots of snack credits to use on the DDP (too many for us!) it might be worth taking some cereal type bars with you in case you get stuck in a long queue. And definitely don't be tempted to "save" the credits as I will almost guarantee that you will have loads left over.
