At what age do kids enjoy Disneyland the most?

Disneyland is great for kids over the age of 7. So if you have 4 kids, 2 of which are under 7, you may have to watch which rides you can do. For my family, this meant that my oldest two (ages 9 and 10) could ride rides together while an adult rode with the younger kids (ages 2, 4, and 6).

Even though Disney and Universal consider your 10+ year-old as an adult, remember to encourage them to feel the magic of childhood for as long as they can. You don't get that beautiful time back — so don't let anyone rush you, or them, through it. Even Disney. Already Have a Disney Reservation?

Not in the least. While there may be some childlike attractions in the Disney parks, there are just as many or more that are geared towards thrill seeking teenagers/adults and nostalgic adults. Disney is a family-friendly destination, without being a 'children's' park.

It's going to vary kid by kid. You really don't appreciate what a visually and sonically overwhelming environment that Disneyland is until you try to take a small child who is more on the sensitive side. Somewhere between 4–6 years old would probably be a good minimum age for a visit for most.

Kids over 6 or 7 are much more adept at managing lines without making you wish you'd never heard the word Disneyland. Most 7 year olds are tall enough to meet the height restrictions for nearly any attraction, meaning they (and you) don't miss out on any of the fun.

Kids of all ages love the magic of Disneyland. Of course, Disneyland with big kids differs from visiting with young children. In many ways, it's better. There's no need to squeeze in naps, plus your family can enjoy later nights at the parks and more adventurous ride options.

If you're worried about them remembering, wait until they're both age 5+. I still remember my Disney trip from the age of 5. It's one of my most memorable vacations as a kid. If I could only take my kids once or twice, I'd probably wait until the youngest was 6-7 (tall enough for most/all rides, magic is still there).

The parks work on an honor system regarding the ages of young Guests, so Cast Members typically don't request proof of age for a child. Other than a theme park ticket for a child ages three or older, there is no need to bring along any form of identification for your kids.

Whether or not a 7-year-old needs a stroller at Disney depends on the individual child's needs and preferences. Some 7-year-olds may be able to walk long distances and stand in lines for extended periods of time without getting tired, while others may become fatigued more quickly.

You do not need children to access the rides, entertainment and yummy treats that Disneyland has to offer. There is a reason that adults can ride on every ride. There are no kiddie rides just for children. Everything at Disneyland is for everyone!
