we are going to disneyland paris this weekend and have 2 full days in the park - looking for recommendations and tips for rides/parts of the park for a 3.5 year old (toys story/cars/princess mad) girl and a nearly 2 year old boy - what rides can they both go on? anything to aim to do in the 2 free magic hours? where is ok to eat (we have some of the resturant voucher things) - any general tips?
thanks

Right at the back of the park, behind Alice in Wonderland is an area with little boats and a little train. Both are ideal for tinies (and if we hadn't been told about it we wouldn't have found it).

fantasyland your best bet for that age group - may also be some things in the studios - wrap up warm!

Are you staying in a Disney hotel? If so, ask for the earliest breakfast pass-say it's your first visit or that you are celebrating a birthday if you have to.
During the magic hours, go to Buzz ride, Dumbo, Peter Pan and Orbitron. Try to get to the park for 8.
Have you bought half board vouchers? If so, book a lunch in Lucky Nugget. This is a character lunch and you'll meet popular characters without needing to queue.
Get fast pass tickets wherever possible.
Have fun!

Also, if you want to meet the Princesses, get to the meet and greet twenty mind before they arrive. The queue becomes ridiculous.

I second wrapping up warm! We went in January (a few years ago now though) and it was bitterly cold. My dp was in Paris a week or so ago and said it was really cold then.

My ds was 2.5 when we went in January and I put wooly tights under his trousers to try and keep him warm!

Hope you have a great trip!

I will also add that it can be really cold this time of year, north west winds etc so wrap up warm.

The princess meet and greet thing is now in the princess pavilion, next to 'it's a small world', get there early as we ended up queuing for an hour (although it was freezing outside so was very nice to be in warm for a while!) you meet 2 princesses, they change throughout the day.

If you go to the studios, make sure you see the cars stunt show - amazing Grin
