Disney World for Babies: Magic Kingdom
Ever wonder which Walt Disney World rides are most suitable for the stroller crowd? Even though babies and toddlers can be found throughout the House of Mouse, certain rides do a better job of maintaining a very short attention span.
Keep in mind that all children have different dispositions and are easily upset by hunger, full diaper, or a missed nap, so more sensitive children might be frightened of darker rides while others simply laugh it off. Pirates of the Caribbean, and even the Haunted Mansion at Magic Kingdom are pretty mellow rides for very small babies, but toddlers who might be more aware of their surroundings might be a little more sensitive to the spooky castle or Pirates' famous warning, "Dead men tell no tales..."
A surefire winner for "lap babies" at Magic Kingdom is the iconic "It's a Small World" as well as the Tomorrowland Transportation Authority, also known as the TTA. The Peter Pan Ride and the Adventures of Winnie the Pooh are also very entertaining, but these rides tend to have longer lines which can wear out a very young child. Try to use a FastPass whenever possible.
Magic Kingdom is well suited for very young children, as evidenced by the large amount of stroller parking available. Visitors might also notice by mid-afternoon that there are a considerable number of tots napping in their strollers after a long day at Disney.
