strategy: first time visitors

[Travel Guru]

I have been to WDW before, but my DH and DD's have not. I know the "smart" thing to do is run into park and head straight to hot spot to get FP. BUT being as this is their first time, I really want to just "stop and smell the roses" take our time, see everything. I like the idea of a FP runner, but I can't see myself leaving them somewhere for me to go off. In a place they will have no idea where they are at, etc. When I did visit, we would make a bee line to the hot spots. So I missed out on the special touches the parks have to offer. I really want to just take our time and stroll along. By doing this I'm afraid of the wait times of the rides once we get there. What would you suggest? TIA~
