Great Disneyland Rides for Babies and Toddlers

One of the top questions I get about Disneyland: what can the littles do? And the answer is: so so much!

Disneyland is actually made up of two parks: Disneyland and California Adventure. Both parks have character meet and greets, fun shows, and even playgrounds (Redwood Creek Challenge and Tom Sawyer Island)! But as far as the rides themselves, there are many options for the littlest park-goers.

Disneyland No Height Restriction Rides:

• Alice in Wonderland
• Astro Orbiters
• Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters
• Casey Jr. Circus Train
• Disneyland Monorail
• Disneyland Railroad
• Dumbo
• Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage
• It’s a Small World
• Jungle Cruise
• King Arthur Carrousel
• Mad Tea Party
• The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh
• Mark Twain Riverboat
• Peter Pan’s Flight
• Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway (opening 1/27/23)
• Story Book Land Canal Boats

Disneyland also has a few additional rides that may be great for little babies, or for older toddlers, who the “scary” themes don’t bother. There is also a 32″ height ride, which most older toddlers can meet. These are:

• Autopia (32″ height requirement)
• Haunted Mansion
• Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride
• Pinocchio’s Daring Journey
• Pirate of the Caribbean
• Snow White’s Enchanted Wish

California Adventure likewise has a variety of rides for littles. These include:

• Golden Zephyr
• Inside Out Emotional Whirlwind
• Jessie’s Critter Carousel
• Little Mermaid
• Luigi’s Rollickin’ Roadsters
• Mater’s Junkyard Jamboree
• Toy Story Midway Mania

The two other rides that littles can go on, but may not be as popular are Monsters Inc. (perhaps a bit scary) and the Pixar Pal-a-Round (perhaps a bit dizzying!).
