So this year both kids are in school full time. We have always tried to go at "off-times". We usually go the first or second week in December, but this year I don't want to take them out of school, so we're headed down Dec 17-22 (also for my bday!). I've been right at Christmas, but that was a while ago and I didn't have little kids. I don't remember it being super crazy, but again that was sans kids and probably 10 years ago. We aren't planning on doing the parks much except for the MVMCP, which we love, and also 1 day at the Animal Kingdom.
I've read the closer it gets to Christmas, the crazier it gets. Is that mainly just at the parks? Or is it generally everywhere at WDW? I'm expecting Disney Springs to be busier than normal. What's your experience been at Christmas, specifically the week before Christmas? Are any certain times of the day/ places busier than others during the Christmas season?
Also, what's your favorite non-park thing to do during Christmas? I really want to visit some resorts and look at Christmas decor.
We are going into this knowing its going to be more crowded, I'm just hoping its not too crazy for us!
