I hope you are having a wonderful time planning your Walt Disney World Resort vacation. Children must be 7-years or older to ride any attraction alone, but for Space Mountain, they must also be at least 44 inches (112 cm) tall.
The minimum height requirement for Expedition Everest is 44 inches, so hopefully your daughter is that tall. My daughter loves roller coasters too and she impatiently waited to be tall enough to ride Expedition Everest.
You might be surprised to learn that Space Mountain pokes along at a top speed of only 27 mph. But because it operates in the dark, it amps up the fear of the unknown and makes the coaster seem faster and scarier. Thrill scale: 5.
EE has a faster top speed and more thrilling drops, and theres that backwards portion. The view from the top is great also. Space is a fun coaster in complete darkness but EE still holds more thrills for me ... even with a bad Yeti component.
A: The best Disney park for a 5-year-old will be Magic Kingdom. Magic Kingdom has over 15 attractions with no height requirement, and plenty of magic for your little ones. You will also find the most character meet and greets in Magic Kingdom if that is what your little one is excited to do!
Space Mountain (coaster with rough, tight turns):It also isn't nearly as short as Seven Dwarfs, and I've often found myself regretting riding it only halfway through. The combination of rough movement and low lighting can make it difficult to anticipate turns and drops, potentially leading to motion sickness.
Space Mountain is an exhilarating experience, but it is ROUGH. You will go in screaming, not out of fear but excitement. It is very dark inside, with limited ability to see so if you do not do well with dark and twisty this ride is not for you.
The ride is relatively jerky. Personally I'd say opinion on the ride mostly comes down to the “in the dark” component. If that appeals to you, you'll probably enjoy the ride. If it doesn't you'll probably feel like Big Thunder Mountain Railroad and Seven Dwarfs Mine Train are easily superior experiences.
