Is Disney baby friendly?

span style=font-weight: 400;>Magic Kingdom is the best park for baby-friendly rides because it has the least amount of height requirements, which means baby can safely ride in your lap for many attractions. We recommend Dumbo, not only for a classic gentle ride but also for its kid-friendly queue.
