Red face Can the 10mos baby ride these??

I did see a list of height requirements and play areas, but I am wondering if the little guy can ride Haunted Mansion, Goofys Barn Stormer, Pirates of the Caribbean and things like that??? Does anyone know??


Thank you so much!! You guys always know the answers!!

He can ride pirates if you hold him tight, haunted mansion and pretty much any other ride without a height requirement. they are a stickler bout height requirements. He can't ride them even with you; no child under height limit can.

He can ride anything that does not have a height requirement. The barnstormer requires him to b 35 inches. Although Toy Story Mania doesn't have a height requirement, he would have to sit in his own seat. My DD rode most of the rides you mentioned when she was only 7 months.

POTC, HM no problem (just remember the little drop at the start of the ride on POTC...I had forgotten about that as I held my 10 mo tight!) We also did IASW, Buzz Lightyear and King Arthur's Carousel, among others.

In DL the CM didn't want me to ride TSM with DS 10mo, so we did the parent switch on that ride. Goofy's Barnstormer has a 35" requirement, so likely not that one.

Here's a list of other height restrictions:

Sit in his own seat?? Is it possible to hold him on the side of you- as in nestled next to your hip/side?

Definitely NOT Barnstormer, but we took our 18 month on Maelstrom. I *think* the sign says minimum age of 3, but its not enforced. HM, POTC, and TSM are fine.

Have fun!

2 weeks ago i saw a 7 or 8 month old on the mom's lap, with a 3 or 4 year old next to her. they might have just slipped through though, i would ask at the fast past before getting them (and you definately want them for that!) my kids went on all the others (except 35" barnstormer) from about 3 months on..........

If you have not ridden TSM before, as you go into the various rooms and games, the cars spin quite quickly.

I would be highly scared they could be flung out, being held or 'snuggled' beside you.

Use rider swap, it would be much safer!

My DH, DS7 and I have ridden TSM before, but this is the baby's first trip. He would probably enjoy the tossing around! But seriously- we do want him to be safe. POTC, Maelstrom, and others have such small drops that it's like... why not let them ride???

As a general rule, babies can ride anything without a height restriction. That would include POTC, Maelstrom, TSM, HM...

We took DD on everything she could go on. TSM wasn't open when we went, so I can't speak to that one, but on our trip, we'll probably do baby swap just to be on the safe side.

Bet you haven't seen this one operate either? Stand at the curve near Space Mountain, watch the little prince and princesses 'driving' and ram the cars in front of them!

I have seen some good ones, full speed ram into the car in front of them that has stopped. so yeah, major 'bumps and jerkiness.' The seat belts are a 'good thing' as Martha would say!
