What age group is good for Disneyland?

Disneyland is great for kids over the age of 7. So if you have 4 kids, 2 of which are under 7, you may have to watch which rides you can do. For my family, this meant that my oldest two (ages 9 and 10) could ride rides together while an adult rode with the younger kids (ages 2, 4, and 6).

Everyone has a different opinion on the perfect age for taking kids to Disneyland, but I think any age upwards of two is a good time. Younger than two, and some of the magic might be lost on them. You can definitely do Disneyland with toddlers though, and this post has lots Disneyland tips for toddlers.

Three year olds enjoy most anything, don't they? Our kids started going to Disneyland before they were 1, and they enjoyed it as much as they enjoyed many other things (such as trips to other parks; Disneyland is a park...)

Yes, you are never too young (or old) for Disneyland! Because there are over 60 rides with no height requirement, plus rider switch, Baby Care Centers, hotels close to the park, meals for toddlers on the menus, and two-year-olds don't need tickets for the park, it is a great vacation to visit with a two-year-old.

Preschoolers/Kindergarteners at Disneyland Some things to consider when bringing a preschooler to Disneyland: Some four year olds will be tall enough for almost all of the rides, but might be too scared to ride many of them.

Disneyland. Much like Magic Kingdom, Disneyland is my top choice for 5-year-olds because it offers classic Disney Magic. Walking down Mainstreet towards the castle will excite kids of all ages. In Adventure land, kids can experience the timeless journey of the Jungle Cruise and run through Tarzans' Tree House.

Even though Disney and Universal consider your 10+ year-old as an adult, remember to encourage them to feel the magic of childhood for as long as they can. You don't get that beautiful time back — so don't let anyone rush you, or them, through it. Even Disney. Already Have a Disney Reservation?

Kids of all ages love the magic of Disneyland. Of course, Disneyland with big kids differs from visiting with young children. In many ways, it's better. There's no need to squeeze in naps, plus your family can enjoy later nights at the parks and more adventurous ride options.

We're moving on to little kids ages 4-7 years old. This is a great time to take kiddos to Disney World for the first time since they're still young enough to be excited about meeting the characters and all the fun, little-kid targeted Disney stuff.

3 DAYS AT DISNEYLAND The 3 day ticket works well for our family because we always know this won't be our last trip. We try to go at least once a year. It worked really well when we had younger kids who don't do most of the “big” rides. So, everyone has time to do the things on their list.

Disney DOESN'T give you free admission into the theme parks on your birthday. They DON'T give you free hotel stays or free meals. You CAN'T skip the lines or get special dining reservations. That said, you'll still receive enough freebies and special attention to give you a little extra magic on your special day.

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).
