#1: Magic KingdomIt's probably no surprise that the Magic Kingdom tops this list! It has more than 15 rides that are safe for babies, such as classics like it's a small world, Jungle Cruise, Peter Pan's Flight, Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover, and Dumbo the Flying Elephant.

Visiting Disney parks with a toddler is great because there are SO MANY things they can enjoy! Disney World has over 100 attractions with no height requirement. You can check out the best Disney World rides for toddlers at each of the parks for my recommendations. But even babies can ride!
Hollywood Studios has the fewest toddler-friendly attractions. Most of the rides have height requirements that young ones won't be able to meet. However, the park has several locations to meet their favorite Disney characters.
In regards to “Lands”, I recommend Fantasyland and Toontown as the top 2 spaces for babies and very young children at Disneyland. They both include the most “all ages” attractions and there's room for little ones to run around and explore in safe places.
Animal Kingdom is very appropriate for kids ages 6 to 12 or any kiddos who appreciate animals and nature. The park is nicely spread out, and there's definitely a slower pace here (compared to Magic Kingdom). This allows you to go at your own pace, explore the side trails, and take in the scenery.
Sort of depends on your 4 year old. AK has lots to do; Safari, River Journey, Bugs Life, lots of animals to look at. Epcot also has stuff but it isn't really designed for toddlers. The Pavilions all have something suitable, Frozen and Ratatouille are great but not much else in the world showcase.
Rider Switch is a very simple concept; it allows you or other members of your party to stay outside of a ride with the child/children while other members of your party wait in line. Once they're finished, guests with the Rider Switch pass don't have to stand in the standby line to enjoy the attraction.
One-Year-Old Friendly Favorite RidesThey can go on any ride that doesn't have a height restriction. You just hold them in your lap! Some of our faves… On our trip, we hit Astro Blasters (Disneyland) and Toy Story Mania (California Adventure, and my all-time favorite ride!)
No. There are some rides at each Disney World theme park that have height requirements; guests may only experience those rides if they're tall enough. But the vast majority of attractions at WDW do NOT have a height requirement. Babies and toddlers are welcome to experience those.
That's how much time you should be spending in Magic Kingdom if your trip lasts a week or longer. Magic Kingdom is the only park at Walt Disney World that we believe requires two days to do everything without feeling rushed–you can do the other parks in one day each.
If you want to visit Epcot or Animal KingdomBoth parks are equally fun to visit, though if you have limited time available, you'll want to do your research to see which one best suits your needs.
To be honest, both parks have some amazing rides and fan-favorite rides, but Epcot does have a few more recent rides and high-quality rides with more advanced technology. As you'll see in the list below, a lot of the popular Magic Kingdom rides are classics, which means they aren't the most advanced.
Is Animal Kingdom good for toddlers? For animal-loving toddlers, Animal Kingdom should be quite enjoyable. For a kid who doesn't enjoy a day at the zoo, there's still fun to be found but it's maybe not going to be as great a day. Kilimanjaro Safaris highlights the ride lineup for toddlers.
Some rides and attractions have loud noises that might frighten your baby. Just ask a Cast Member at the entrance if you have any question that the ride or show might not be appropriate. This complete guide to everything scary for kids at Disneyland offers up some tips on what rides to avoid.
Rides like Pirates of the Caribbean, Haunted Mansion, Peter Pan, and Small World have no height requirement. Some of these rides are even great for getting baby to go to sleep.
