Do kids under 2 need a Disneyland reservation?

Ana, Guests under age three are considered Guests of Mickey and do not require a ticket or a theme park reservation when accompanied by an adult. Once the child turns three - even if it is during the vacation - they are required to have a valid theme park admission ticket and a theme park reservation.
