Update October 2015: For travel in 2016, I’ve published a revised itinerary for the lower crowd weeks in January through May that works better than this itinerary. The new itinerary is here.
Below is my FastPass+ based Disney World itinerary for lower crowd weeks.
It does not work all dates, and some dates that it mostly works it needs some little adjustments. Check your week here.

The recommended FastPass+ that make it work are in the To-Do List, so you can book them at the 60 day window for FastPass+ sign-ups. Daily agendas are in the links:
Thanks are especially due to Josh from easyWDW. With his permission, I picked the targeted park days based on both my own practices and his daily park recommendations.

Hi Karla! At that age, you could do a trip focused just on MK. But otherwise, here’s parks to avoid by day then.
8/22 (my birthday!!) avoid MK and HS
8/23 –not a great MK day (Epcot and HS are better choices) but so be it!
8/24 Avoid HS
8/25 Avoid Epcot
8/26 Avoid AK
Hi Krystal! My stuff on this site is aimed more at your ten year old. You’ll find itineraries more suited to the whole group in my book.
May 10, avoid AK and MK
May 11, avoid MK and HS
May 12, avoid Epcot
May 13, avoid HS and AK
May 14 avoid MK
May 15 avoid HS and Epcot
May 16 avoid HS and MK.
Hi Dave great site! I have planned a 6 day vacation to Disney and am staying at port Orleans riverside in Disney. Our dates are May 10-16. My children are 3, 6, and 10. Any suggestions on which parks on certain days and how to plan our park stay as in where to start? We are going to universal for 4 days after also. Thank you!
Hi Bill and thanks!
First you can find the calendar here, at the bottom of each page.
Those dates, the best Epcot days are the 21st and 24th.
All the dates are fine at AK
If you go with HS (and its better for a 4 year old than Epcot) any day but the 21st.
MK will be least crowded the 22nd. The next best MK day is the 23rd. Avoid it the 21st and 24th.
So this suggests
21 AK or Epcot
22 MK
23 MK
24 AK, HS, or Epcot
