Rides with 3 1/2 year old?

[TexasErin]

This will be DS's 4th trip and there's a few rides I'm wondering if he is now tall and mature enough to ride. Would you put your 3 1/2 year old on
BTMRR
Soarin'
Test Track
Star Tours
???
He rode Goofy's Barnstormer several times last year and loved it and I can't think of any reason why he couldn't ride Star Tours. Not so sure about the other 3?
Whaddya think???

I'd definately put him on Soarin! And if he liked Barnstormer then I see no reason why he wouldn't like BTMRR. My daughter went on Test Track when she was 3 but she really didn't like it, it was too bouncy and jerky and I think going outside driving fast without being in a real car scared her. Both my girls hate simulated rides so I really can't answer that one, it does get loud and dark and jerky.

My oldest son (7), still doesn't like some of the faster rides.

HOWEVER, middle son (just turned 4), has been riding all the ones you mentioned since he was tall enough (around age 3) and loves them!

With a child who likes that stuff, you will be fine on those rides.

My son enjoyed all those rides at just turned 4 with the exception of Star Tours. Too bouncy and rough. Despite the fact that Dinosaur only has a 40 inch heigh restriction, skip that. We didn't realize how scary it was before we took him on.

I took my DS5 now, when he was 3 1/2, and he loved all the rides you mention. What freaked him out was the 3D movies. Mickey's Philharmagic was fine for him, but he cried at both the Bug one and the Honey I Shrunk the Audience.

My DD was thrilled to realize that she has now grown enough to do the rides! (For our Dec '05 trip she wasn't). We leave Tues and she can't wait to do the bigger rides (think Dino might be too much tho). I think she'll do fine. Depends on the child I guess (she'll be 4 in Oct).
