Wow - you will have your hands full either way!Staying 10 nights next year at either the poly or BC with a 2 year old and 4 year old. Does anyone have any thoughts on the best choice? Thanks.
I was wondering which pool would be more suitable with youngsters. The pool at BC is obviously a big selling point of the resort but is the poly pool manageable with young kids? Does it get overcrowded? Is there a splash area?With a 2y and 4y I would pick the Poly. The pools and play areas are constructed with minimal obstructions where BC has very winding pathways and there are tons of obstructions, stairs, and bridges. BC does have a sand bottom water area which kids like but you'd have to have kids that like to stay around you and not stray.

The Poly now has two main pools with play areas included so the overcrowding has diminished. People do generally head for the pool my the main building but there is a nice pool/play area by Tokelo (sp?). Either pool has better site lines than BC, especially if the 4y would rather run thru the sprinkler and the 2y would rather float. JMO, as my kids never stayed together.I was wondering which pool would be more suitable with youngsters.

I vote poly strictly because of Stormalong bay at BC. I find that pool exhausting with little ones. I know many disagree but I don't find it relaxing at all. Also, at Poly you can walk to ttc and have easy access to epcot monorail.
Just mentioning, BC does give you access to multiple pools - 2 'quiet' pools and also the small pool at the base of the big slide. I do know firsthand how much extra parenting time Stormalong requires - but a 2 and 4 yo will require that no matter the pool. Depending on the time of year, SAB can get crowded, as it's for YC, BC, and BCV guests. But we have rarely had issues getting chairs. No splash area, though.
Ha! That is a good point.When you have a 2 and 4 year old on vacation, NOTHING is relaxing.
When my kids were that age, we called them "trips" not vacations. They were not vacations.
