Does my 1 year old need a Disney reservation?

One of the best parts about taking toddlers is the fact that children under the age of three are considered Guests of Mickey and are not required to have a Theme Park Ticket to gain admission to the Parks. Because they do not need a Theme Park Ticket there is also no need to make Theme Park Reservations for them.
