Family of Five

[jedijake]

Good morning everyone,
So our family grew by one since our last visit, so my question is this: Is there any attraction that we will not be able to ride parent-kid and then in another ride vehicle parent - kid - toddler. i'm fully aware of the obvious there is only two zappers in buzz or two sling shots in TS. Thanks everyone!!!

So exciting that you are going! How old are your kids? We have five as well and found that there were several rides where the three kids could sit in one seat (the little one in the middle) and my husband and I sat together. Thinking of Peter Pan, Winnie the Pooh, Dumbo, Splash Mountain, Thunder Mountain. They actually got a lot closer riding together. Now that they are older (17, 14 and 9) they still try to squeeze into some rides together ad are sad when they don't fit.

For buzz I know when I went with my sister and DD last year we all went in one seat and DD just didn't zap (not sure if that would work this time but when she was 3.5 she was ok)... hm, poc, Peter Pan, all of them I think we just put her between us. But I'm 5" 1' and tiny, my sister is 5" 3' at most and small as well so maybe I'm not the best person to respond people joke they look for the hole in the crowd when looking for my family... I think rides like barn stormer were the only ones where we split up because of seat belts...

We are a family of 5, and like Tink_83 mentions, it would only be an issue with roller coaster type rides (that the toddler probably won't be able to ride anyway) that sit two across like Mine Train, Expedition Everest, and Barnstormer. Everything else was fine, even Tomorrowland Speedway we could fit an adult, toddler and child in one car, and adult and child in a second car.

How old are the kids? How tall? Attractions with height requirements are going to be tricky, as most sit only two together, with restraints. If the toddler is tall enough to go on one, but you only have two adults, it might not work, as a child needs to be 7 or older to ride alone.

We went this past summer with my 6 year old and most of the rides she either went with me or my husband or we were able to fit all together. Even on Splash Mountain we were able to fit me, my DS who was 9 and my DD 6 into one row. I also have a DD who is 12 and sometimes she road alone or DS would ride alone while the other parent road with one of them. Not sure if one of your other kids would be able to ride by themselves, but we always had the single rider child in front of us and gave them instructions on what to do when they got off in case we got separated a little bit.
