Does Disney World check kids ID?

No, you do not have to have photo IDs for your minor children. This is a common question, but one for which you don't need to worry. Disney does not ask for proof of age from children. IDs really only start to become an issue when you are talking about the purchase of adult beverages.

If you're worried about them remembering, wait until they're both age 5+. I still remember my Disney trip from the age of 5. It's one of my most memorable vacations as a kid. If I could only take my kids once or twice, I'd probably wait until the youngest was 6-7 (tall enough for most/all rides, magic is still there).

MORE DETAILS

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).
