My oldest is also 6-years old and I faced the same dilemma our trip earlier this year. In the end, I decided to have a stroller for him and I am so glad I did!

If your child is under 4, the answer is easy. Yes, you definitely need a stroller. If your child is in that magical age range between 5-9 years old, it's a more difficult decision.
The decision to use a stroller or not is yours alone, but if you decide that your family would benefit from using a stroller, you can consider bringing one from home, or renting one. You can even rent a stroller right in Disney World! Check out these adorable new strollers you can rent right in the Parks!

Does my toddler need a MagicBand? If your toddler is under three they do not need a ticket and therefore do not need a MagicBand. Children 3 and over will need tickets, park reservations and their own LL/Genie+ reservations, so a MagicBand would be useful, but is not necessary. See below for other options.

Melanie, kids who are between ages 3-9 do need a ticket when visiting Walt Disney World Resort. Children under the age of 3 do not require a ticket at this time. As you make your ticket selections and choose your date, you will then select how many adult (ages 10+) and child (ages 3-9) tickets you're purchasing.
Child prices are valid for children aged 3-9 years on day of first use; children aged 10 years and above pay the adult ticket price; children under 3 years do not require a Theme Park Ticket and are admitted free when accompanied by an adult.
