Height requirements for rides?

The heights for rides are different than the disneyland website I posted.
Example: space mountain has 40 inches on the disneyland website and 44 inches on the dis WDW website.????

Space is different at DLR and WDW. That could account for the height difference. I use the one on allearsnet.com http://allears.net/dlr/tp/dlr_rr.htm At DLR you ride it sitting 2 across, at WDW you sit in your own seat, single width. (more like Matterhorn)

Space Mtn at DLR is 40", and at WDW it is 44" (http://allears.net/tp/rr.htm)


HTH. :goodvibes
 
My sister bought a really cute growth chart that has all the DL and CA rides on it, so as the kid grows you mark their height and it shows all the rides they are tall enough to ride. It's a really cute idea. I think she got it at Disneyland on our last trip in Oct.
 
I got the wrong park, someday this site will have a DLR site just like WDW that will rival DLR's stepsister WDW.

Did she buy it in DL?? I'm interested in buying one.
 
Thanks for all of the help! My DD is now 45 inches, so I'm hoping that with shoes on, she might pass for 46. She's a roller coaster junkie, so I think she'd love some of the bigger kid rides. :)

I just did a search for it and it's on laughingplacestore.com. Search for Growth Chart. My total came to $10.44. :thumbsup2 We are going next weekend so I may wait and see if I can get it in the park.

ETA - Whoops! Looks like the one on laughingplace is for Disney World. There is a Disneyland one on Ebay...

Just so you know, the height limit signs at DLR are adjusted for an average shoe height. So, make sure your DD doesn't wear flat shoes, with little height or she may not make the cut. When DD was finally 46" I had her wear boots with a nice heel just in case. Good think because without she would have been too short. (and she's old enough to ride, just petite)

Well, that's interesting! When DD had just turned 3, she measured 40" at the doc's office with no shoes on (yes, she's really tall). But then a month later when she was trying to ride Soarin' with us at WDW, they had about 4 different cast members out at the line measuring her, as she was *barely* hitting the 40" mark even with shoes on. So that explains why. She did get to go on Soarin, and loved it!!

DRAT! We've been measuring ds w/shoes. I don't think he's going to make the cut for indy!
