Kids ages 4-6 can have an absolute blast at Disney, or they can spend the whole time begging to go back to the hotel pool. You know your children best, so consider how you think they'd handle the lines and stress of a long day at the park – and remember that spending a full day in a crowded park is tiring.
Genie Plus is definitely worth it for Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios, and if you don't like early starts, you might consider it for Epcot and Animal Kingdom. If you are park hopping, Genie+ is even better value as it maximises the number of rides you have access to.
We've found that California Adventure with kids is most fun when you start your time there with a totally realistic expectation about the types of rides you'll get to do. We were just there with a 5 and 8 year old, and although tall enough for almost everything, not everything was a good idea for both of them.
Yes.It is possible to visit both Disneyland Resort theme parks in one day using either a Park Hopper Ticket or Magic Key pass. A Park Hopper Ticket allows Guests to visit more than one park per day. Guests must make a theme park reservation for the first park they plan to visit.
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).
3 DAYS AT DISNEYLANDThe 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.
Preschoolers/Kindergarteners at DisneylandSome 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. Sometimes kids at this age prefer spending time looking for characters and watching shows.
The general consensus in most Disney and travel forums is that Disneyland should be your first choice, and moving on to California Adventure afterward. If you are trying to get everything done in one day, staying in a hotel on-site the night before is a good idea.
While people of any height may enjoy many of the rides at Disneyland and Disney California Adventure, the rides require children under 7 to ride seated next to someone who meets a certain height requirement (see Autopia) or is at least 14 years old.
Did you know that there are actually two amazing Disney Theme Parks in Anaheim, though? While Disneyland remains the most popular in influence and attendance, Disney's California Adventure makes a really excellent option as well, offering all the Disney fun you'd expect at any Disney theme park!
Magic Kingdom Park has the most number of attractions suitable for younger children and is also where they can meet their favorite characters or wave to them in the Disney Festival of Fantasy Parade or Disney Adventure Friends and Mickey's Celebration Cavalcades.
I recommend doing the Magic Kingdom Park first as it has many toddler-friendly rides. Cars Land is also a kid-favorite located in the Disney California Adventure Park. If early entry is offered here, take advantage of it.
There are rides and attractions at every Disney theme park that are age and height appropriate for preschoolers. You definitely won't go to any of the parks and not find something for your preschooler to do. Some of the Walt Disney World theme parks offer more than others when it comes to preschoolers.
Magic Kingdom is definitely the better park when it comes to food, attractions, character meet and greets and entertainment over Hollywood Studios. Hollywood Studios has become more a half day park, unless you are a major Star Wars fan and want to spend plenty of extra time doing galactic activities.
Many of the current rides have strict height requirements, which means fewer attractions are available for any person with a height under 40 (102 cm). There are several rides that are accessible, but if your family has time for only one park, the choice is clear: choose Disneyland.
