I think your plan for the most part should work. If Toontown is a must I recommend going to the Toontown gate 5 minutes before Toontown opens because the fab 5 comes out and welcomes you into Toontown which should be a really awesome moment for your son. Not sure if meeting characters is a priority but you can meet a lot of characters in Town square like Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Chip Dale, Cruella etc. and usually you can go right up to them and interact with them and take a picture without waiting in a line like at WDW. If your looking at the castle characters come out at the right side gate of Town Square. As a WDW vet who’s also going to DLR for my first time, the way I’m attacking the park is by making dining reservations ahead of time like I did already and seeing what wait times are low and see what fast passes I’m able to get at the moment. It’s a nice change for once not having to make fast passes 60 days out. I’m mixing in Downtown Disney with our park days because Downtown Disney is tiny compared to Disney Springs, so I’m not so sure you could do Downtown a whole day like you can at Disney Springs. Hope this helps.
