What is the under 3 policy at Disneyland?

Tiny Guests under the age of 3 years old have a direct invitation from Mickey Mouse and don't require a Theme Park Ticket. You won't even need to make any Theme Park Reservations for them. As long as you and any older children have everything in order, your smallest family members are good to go.
