Disney Babies is a franchise that is aimed at a very young audience. As the name implies it features baby and toddler versions of various Disney characters, mainly
Disney film director Byron Howard cites the listing of production babies as a pointer to the depth of personal relationships established during collaboration on an animated movie. A star next to a baby's name honors a baby who died before production was complete.
Infants and babies (up to 1 year)
Free (no ticket needed) Plenty of things you can ride in each park with a baby. Taking a baby forces you to slow down and interact with the park differently – which can be a great thing for some Disney World repeat guests. Although the baby may not remember it, you will.
Baby's are welcome at Disney World and there are several great accommodations for babies. There's Baby Care Centers at each of the four main parks, stroller rentals in the parks, and play areas/quiet areas. Plus they have supplies on hand should you need to buy diapers, wipes or care items.
Yes, it's worth taking a 1 year old to Disney World. There are lots of rides for them to enjoy, as well as attractions, character meets, and play spaces to explore. Just remember it's not a relaxing expectation, but more of an adventurous trip with lots of new shared experiences.
Totally up to you to decide what you want to do. Disney doesn't consistently ask for proof of age for young kids, but they certainly can if they want to. I've heard reports of them innocently asking the child how old they are - which more often than not means you're busted! Your call if you want to take the chance.
Joni, you will be thrilled to know that your 1 year-old can experience over 120 attractions at the Walt Disney World Resort theme parks! All Guests, regardless of age or height, can enjoy “any height” rides and attractions.
While it's certainly possible to give birth at Walt Disney World in extenuating circumstances, doing so won't get you or your child any special perks—except for maybe some extra attention from the Cast Members!
The Disney rider switch, sometimes known as the rider swap or child swap, allows a member of your party to wait with a child who doesn't meet the height requirement or a guest who doesn't want to go on, or is unable to ride a particular attraction. What is this?
Yes, with exceptions. You can only baby wear on rides without a height requirement because babies (up to 32 inches) can only go on those rides. You cannot baby wear as a way to get babies onto rides they don't meet the height requirements for.
So my baby can go on these rides. But should they? That's up to you. Babies under the age of about 18 months will be fine on any of them.
Strollers must be 31” (79cm) wide and 52” (132cm) long or smaller. As a reminder, wagons are not permitted in our parks. Stroller wagons will also no longer be permitted. Loose and dry ice is not permitted in our parks.
Minimum Ages for Travel
The minimum age to sail aboard a Disney Cruise Line ship is 6 months on the day of sailing; however, the minimum age for Transatlantic, Panama Canal and Hawaii itineraries is one year on the day of sailing.
Originally known as the Disney Brothers Cartoon Studio, with Walt Disney and his brother, Roy, as equal partners, the company soon changed its name, at Roy's suggestion, to the Walt Disney Studio.
Rider Switch (sometimes called “Child Swap” or “Rider Swap”) is Disney's system that allows people with small children to take turns riding the bigger rides while the other person/people wait with the child.
A “Disney Parent” actually has a legal definition: “a noncustodial parent who indulges his or her child with gifts and good times during visitation and leaves most or all disciplinary responsibilities to the other parent.” It's usually used in reference to the father, since we are typically the non-custodial parent, ...
Did you know Disney has an unspoken rule called the "No Sad Kids" rule? The rule allows cast members to go above and beyond to make sure kids who are upset get their smile back.
Sign up for 'DAS pass'
Guests with any condition (including ADHD) that prevents them from waiting in extended lines can obtain one. While a DAS pass won't give you immediate access to a ride, you'll get a return time comparable to the ride's current wait time.
Strollers larger than 31” (79 cm) in width and 52” (132cm) in length are not permitted. Stroller wagons are also not permitted. Strollers are not allowed on escalators. Use of strollers is permitted on elevators and ramps, available at certain locations.
Unfortunately, none of those babies were recipients of the coveted, magical lifetime Disney Pass. Turns out this myth is totally busted. While Disney Parks may pay for an ambulance ride to the hospital, they certainly will not award your child with any special privileges.
As far as we know, there have been just four babies born on Disneyland property in total. After Teresa in 1979, who was born on a bench near the entrance, there was a baby born in 1984 at a Disneyland First Aid station, and another in 2002 in a back room office.
Here's the thing, while the legend is a popular one, it is simply not true. The myth that being born in Disneyland secures you a lifetime pass is a myth that Disneyland probably wishes would disappear. Why? Apparently rushing towards Disneyland's gates when labour begins in order to nab a pass is 'a thing'.
Prepare for an Icy Ride in Frozen Ever After at Epcot
Set to the tune of the most popular songs from Frozen, young children and toddlers alike are sure to love becoming immersed in this classic Disney animated adventure. Little ones can spot their favourite characters from Disney's Frozen in Frozen Ever After.
Despite its reputation for being a more “grown up” park, Epcot actually has a lot to offer kids. Seven rides, including Frozen Ever After and Remy's Ratatouille Adventure have no height requirements, and only four rides have height requirements.
By far, Magic Kingdom has the most toddler-friendly attractions of all the Walt Disney World parks. If you only have one day to visit Disney World with toddlers, the Magic Kingdom park will provide the most fun.
