Do 3 year olds go to Disney for free?

A perk to bringing your child under the age of 3 to the Walt Disney parks is that they do not need a park ticket to enter any of the theme parks. If you have booked multi-day tickets, you will not need to purchase a ticket for your child if they turn 3 during your trip, as long as they were two at check in.
