Good morning,
We will be visiting the parks next month with our 4 year old (her second time) and our 15 month old. Grandparents will be along so we can leave our youngest while we do some rides, but I was wondering what rides he can sit on our lap (or next to us when appropriate) ?? Just want to be prepared and not have him in lines with us for rides he can’t go on. Thank you!!
 
Off the top of my head:

Small World
Peter Pan
Snow White
Dumbo
Jungle Cruise
Storybook canal
Mr.Toad

If you think he wouldn't be scared:
Haunted Mansion
Pirates of the Caribbean

I'm sure there are more that I'm not thinking of right now. have fun!
 
In addition to what is listed above:

Buzz
Alice
Astro Orbitor
Casey Jr Train
Davy Crockett Explorer Canoes
Railroad
Carrousel
Mad Tea Party
Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh
Pinocchio's daring Journey
Roger Rabbit

At DCA:
Golden Zephyr
Inside Out Emotional Whirlwind
Critter Carousel
Little Mermaid
Monster's Inc
Pixar Pal-A-Round (both swinging and non-swinging)
Toy Story Midway Mania
Web Slingers
 
He can physically go on anything without a height requirement. They won't let him in the line if he's too small :)

Of course, the ability to go on something doesn't always mean it's a good choice, as plenty of rides may scare young ones, but that's a hard one to know ahead of time. Like the scary witch on Snow White's Enchanted Whatever (Journey? Adventure? can't remember and too lazy to go look, ha). Or skeletons on Pirates. Or rides that are really dark as far as lighting, etc.

The DL app also has a filter that will allow you to sort rides/attractions by different criteria, such as "36 inches and under," or "No height requirement" which makes it a little easier to what everyone can ride together, and what Big Sis and grown-ups can ride without Baby Bro.I
 

Fair point, ha! Two year olds are a COMPLETELY different beast! .... We had one that was super-sensitive at a year and a half, and others that couldn't have cared less what was going on around them.
I’m taking my 2 yo for the first time in May. 🤦‍♀️ Stupid covid. We were supposed to go when he was 6 months old. Best age for DL! 😆
