Do I need Genie Plus for guest under 2?

Tadpoles under 3 years old (who do not require a ticket for admission) do not need to purchase Genie+ to go with their party. When can I purchase Genie Plus at Disney World? You can purchase Genie+ day by day on each day of your trip using the My Disney Experience app.

I don't recommend it if you aren't going on big rides. I don't purchase it and we do all the rides multiple times (my kids are 4 and 7) most of the rides without height requirements don't even use G+ so you'd be wasting your money. Knock a few rides over at rope drop and you'll be fine and have a great time.
