Rides with 2yo? Parkhopper for 2 days?

[RandiB]

Hey, I have two questions. Our plan is to go to MK and MGM, one day each.

What can I ride with my 2 yo DD?

Is the Parkhopper worth it for only two days? My mom hates AK, but I like Epocot a lot, and havene't been in 15 years.

Also, I am a bigger person... Will I even be able to go on rides withthe little one?

Thanks!

Hi! You will be able to take the 2 yr old on any ride without a height restriction. If you go to the WDW website, there is a list of rides that are restricted by height that you can print out.

I have to tell you to keep in mind that he or she may be scared of a lot of rides in the parks. I took my 2 yr old in July, and he's a pretty outgoing child, and he was scared of pretty much everything. I was very surprised!!!!!! I thought yea, maybe he will be scared of the HM so I skipped that, but never imagined he would be scared of IASW!!!! I don't want to sound negative, your 2 yr old may be ok, just wanted to give you a heads up. I was pretty disappointed because I wasn't expecting it to be that bad.

Some rides with height restrictions off the top of my head are:

Space Mountain
Splash Mountain
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
Goofy's rollercoaster ( I think it was 35", your toddler may be tall)
Rockin Roller coaster
TOT
Dinosaur
Kali river rapids
EE
Soarin
Mission:space
Test Track

I'm sure I am forgetting some, but I was also a little surprised how much the little tots could go on!!!!!

As far as the Pooh sized thing, my sister took her 3 yr old w/ us in July, and she (Pooh sized) fit fine with her daughter on every ride. I don't think you will have a problem.

Have fun!!!!

Thanks - My mom and I are pretty go with the flow. I have no idea what to expect as far as the rides or characters go.

I was actually thinking of taking her somewhere where we could ride some rides here, but it's past fair season. We ride the train at the zoo a lot. I am crossing my fingers that will help.

She used to hate those supermarket rides, then she saw one with a giant puppy, and now she wants to give them all a go. But I think back of how she used to start screaming when she saw one, because I tried to put her on one once.

Thanks! I am going to try and go with the flow.

You should be able to ride just about everything in Fantasyland at the Magic Kingdom There is a witch in Snow White so be careful with that one. If you Haven't been to EPCOT since 1995 defiantly go! You can park hop on your MK day. Get to the MK 15 min before park opening. You May be done by 11AM or so! hop over to EPCOT get a FASTPASS for the thing you want to ride most. have some lunch and play it by ear from there on out (I know that with a toddler you pretty much play everything by ear ). There are some new fun things there for you. It great to have mom along so you can baby swap. Your child may love The living Seas. Don't worry about yourself, you'll be fine I think park hopping on a 2 day trip gives you great flexibility. Have a wonderful time
