First time going with 3,5yr toddler

We just booked our first trip to Disneyland Paris with our 3,5yr toddler. We will be doing 2D1N at the Disneyland Hotel. Are there any tips from fellow toddler parents on how to plan the visit? My daughter is a big Elsa/Anna (Frozen) fan so we will probably spend most time in the Frozen park.

  • We are staying in a nearby hotel the night before the hit the park for the first day. So we do hope to do the Extra Magic Time on the day of arrival already. What do we hit first? The Frozen ride? Or something else?
  • We booked the superior room in the Disneyland Hotel. I read here there are some superior rooms that have a castle view. More people who can confirm that? And do you remember what room number you were in? And any chance it was a Frozen themed room?
  • What do you recommend for breakfast? We booked the breakfast but having read the reviews, I am not sure it's worth the price, considering none of us are big eaters anyway. So I'm now looking at cancelling the breakfast and just doing a coffee and pastry grab at the Main Street Deli. Is that a good idea?
  • We are now also looking at the princess lunch or dinner because we feel like it will complete the experience. But since our daughter only knows Elsa/Anna, we fear it will not be that impressive for her if other princesses show up. Thoughts?
  • Since our daughter is young, she might not be able to see the Tales of Magic or Cascade of Lights at night. Can we see something from the Disneyland hotel or not at all?
  • Do you recommend taking a buggy for a toddler this age or perhaps a scooter step? She hasn't been in her buggy in forever, so we fear she might not want to sit in it. But it will be a long walk.
  • Any tips on how to see Elsa/Anna? What time is best to wait for them at the Rencontre Royale?
  • Other things we can do with our daughter? We will focus mainly on Frozen, and some other toddler rides. We do know there's a Kids Club in the hotel, so we may do that too, as 'quiet time' during the day.

Thanks in advance! Look forward to hearing your tips and recs!
