Can I hold my baby on Disney rides?

The answer is yes your baby will be able to ride on your lap on some rides, but check the Disneyland Resort website for height requirements. Those without height requirements will be okay. I was suprised to find this video of a 5 month old on Dumbo with mom (dad taking video, I presume).
