Can kids under 3 go on rides at Disney?

No. There are some rides at each Disney World theme park that have height requirements; guests may only experience those rides if they're tall enough. But the vast majority of attractions at WDW do NOT have a height requirement. Babies and toddlers are welcome to experience those.
