Babe in Disneyland

[kristenm514]

I ran a search of the forum and it didn't yield the results I was looking for, so I will ask you fine folks. We will be in Disneyland on Saturday (yay!!) with our 4.5 yo DD and 4.5 MONTH old DS. We'll have Grandma along to help with the baby, and to watch him while we take DD on rides, but we'd like to enjoy as much as we can with baby and Grandma, too! What rides are appropriate for a baby? He is a very easygoing little guy, so lights/sounds won't freak him out; I've heard the general rule is "anything without a height requirement", but the teacups don't have a height requirement and I don't think he'd do so well on that Some practical experience from someone who's been there, done that would be great.

Also, I'll have a sling with me and can use it to carry him on my front or hip -- will they let me keep him in it for the kiddie rides? Thanks a bunch!

We took DS when he was 5.5mo - he went on Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters, Toy Story Midway Mania, IASW, the Carousel, the Zephyr (I think that is the name? The one with the big ships that is in DCA that is kind of near WOC), Little Mermaid, Monsters Inc, the caterpillar ride in Bugsland - those are the ones I can remember. We had a Boba (lie an Ergo) for him and it was great!

Oh, the Zephyr will make you take him out and sit him next to you, so that one may not work (DS was crawling and sitting at that point). I know I wore DS on TSMM, Monster Inc and Astro Blasters.

Awesome! Thanks so much. It sounds like he will have a full dance card, indeed! He is so into colors/lights/music that I know he's going to giggle his head off.

Oh, if he likes lights and music, you HAVE to do Disney Junior Live on Stage in DCA - my kids adore that show! They have music and bubbles and gold doubloons that fall from the sky
