Does Disney fingerprint kids?

When Guests are scanning fingers, they are verifying that their fingerprint matches their theme park ticket linked to their MagicBand and since your littlest one won't need a ticket, you won't need to worry about a fingerprint scan.

No one will ask you her age. Many people take their kids to celebrate their 3rd birthdays at WDW and are still treated as under 3. Well, they might ask. But the answer is 2 and that will be the end of it.

People understand they need photo proof that they did in fact go to Disney World, so people on social media can scroll past it and not care. However, there is now a selfie ban in place at Disney World and the reason may shock you. Back in 2015, Disney implemented a selfie stick ban.

How long will Disney keep this information? The data on the scans is kept independent of any other system and will be purged 30 days after the ticket expires or when the computer determines that it is fully used up.

Totally up to you to decide what you want to do. Disney doesn't consistently ask for proof of age for young kids, but they certainly can if they want to. I've heard reports of them innocently asking the child how old they are - which more often than not means you're busted! Your call if you want to take the chance.

Proper attire, including shoes and shirts, must be worn at all times. The parks are a casual, family-oriented environment. Ensuring that the parks are family-friendly is an important part of the Disney experience. In that spirit, we ask you to use your discretion and common sense.

While they do allow some flexibility in terms of hairstyles and facial hair for Cast Members, visible tattoos and piercings are generally not permitted. Disney typically requires Cast Members to cover visible tattoos with clothing or makeup. I want to work for Disney World, but I have face and hand tattoos.

Although some seem to believe that the lack of mirrors is to discourage vandalism, there does seem to be a consensus that Disney's conspicuous lack of mirrors over the sinks in most theme park bathrooms is a matter of preserving the flow of traffic—as one Disney custodian (purportedly) anonymously confirmed on Quora.

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. All tickets purchased online are e-tickets.

Not only do kids under 3 get into the Parks for free, but they also eat for free at select buffet or family-style restaurants, which is perfect considering most of them steal bites off mom and dad's plates anyway.

Thanks for stopping by planDisney. We love helping Guests like us answer their planning questions. I'm happy to report that you do not need to bring a birth certificate or any kind of document to verify your child's age. If asked at the turnstile, you just have to simply share their age and you will be on your way.

Bear in mind that Disneyland tickets are free for those under 3 years old. We went to Disneyland with a two-year-old Arlo, but it was just a week before his third birthday, which saved us a lot of money! Also, you don't have to prove the child is under three, so make of that what you will!

Of course, a 5-year-old will be able to remember a Disney trip when they're older. Still, children under 5 probably won't remember much. My first Disney trip was when I was about 8, and I do remember it (ok, not every detail, but I do remember bits and pieces).
