Does a 4 year old need a MagicBand?

Do Kids Need MagicBands at Disney World? No one needs a MagicBand, but if your child is 3 or over you'll need something that stores their ticket. Here's how this works at Disney World. MagicBands are wristbands that function as a park ticket and room key (as Disney hotels) during your Disney World ticket.
