It's time to swap the theme parks for swimsuits!

This week on Brits in the Magic, our Park by Park series continues as we take a slight detour from Walt Disney World's four main theme parks and dive into Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach!

We're putting Disney's two water parks head-to-head and asking one big question: which is better when you're visiting Walt Disney World with a 4-year-old?

We explore the tropical surroundings of Typhoon Lagoon, from its famous Surf Pool and Castaway Creek to family attractions, bigger slides and the areas designed especially for younger children. Then we're heading into the Florida snow at Blizzard Beach, talking about everything from Cross Country Creek and Teamboat Springs to Tike's Peak – and, of course, the terrifying prospect of Summit Plummet!

But this wouldn't be Park by Park without putting both parks through the Little B Test. We discuss what a 4-year-old can actually do at each park, which children's areas work best, how the wave pools compare, whether the family attractions really are fun for the whole family and which water park Little B would choose if he had the final say.

We also tackle another important question for anyone planning a Walt Disney World holiday: can a Disney water-park day genuinely be a rest day? Or is looking after a 4-year-old around slides, splash areas and lazy rivers somehow even more exhausting than walking around Magic Kingdom all day?

We'll also hand out our five Brits in the Magic Park Awards before finishing with another quick-fire round – including Surf Pool vs Melt-Away Bay, big slides vs lazy rivers and the ultimate showdown...

Typhoon Lagoon or Blizzard Beach?
