Is it worth taking a 2 year old to Disneyland?

Toddlers are totally free before their third birthday at Disneyland, so be sure to schedule that trip just before your child's big day. I've found that 2-3 year olds can get so much value out of the park at that stage because they start to know the characters and have maybe watched a Disney movie or two by then.
