If
you’ve ever been to Disneyland, you realize that it was designed for
kids of all ages and toddlers are no exception. Disney has gone to
great lengths recently to make sure different themes of the captivating
theme park are sectioned off age appropriately so it’s easy to find a
location entertaining for different age groups and therefore visitors of
every change can stay entertained for hours… and even days. The one
possible predicament is that your family may have to split up if you
have a wide range of ages involved.
Not
to worry though because with the recent additions to the Disney Theme
Park, there is sure to be activity after activity that kids of all ages
can enjoy – so many things in fact, that you may as well plan on staying
for several days. And even then, you won’t have time to do them all,
so be sure your whole group is well rested, fed and prepared for a busy
day of fun and excitement.
The
Disneyland Railroad is a delightful express that is enjoyed by all
toddlers. This is a great way to get around the park, because there are
stations in New Orleans Square, Toon Town, Tomorrowland, and on Main
Street. Your toddler is sure to be amused, and the railroad is a great
way for you to have a chance to see some sights, create a plan for what
you want to see first or to just rest a bit.
Let’s
talk about toddler attractions and start with Toon Town. Here is where
you will find your toddler’s favorite Disney Characters, including the
infamous Mickey and Minnie Mouse. All the Disney Characters have homes
in Toon Town and there is a world of things that will amaze your
toddler, and of course, to make them laugh.
Its A Small World,
with all its music and colors will keep your child mesmerized and is
definitely toddler appropriate. You can also enjoy a relaxing ride
across the water while listening to enchanting music that is sure to
bring back some childhood memories of your own..
The
Storybook Land Canal Boats is also an excellent choice if your child is
familiar with their story books. It will take you through the
miniature villages that your child will be quite familiar with.
Among
the rides that you and your toddler won’t want to miss include all of
the rides in Fantasyland, King Arthur’s Carousel, Dumbo the Flying
Elephant, the Circus Train, and the Mad Tea Party. The ever-fun and
popular ride of Buzz Lightyear remains a great journey ride for all
toddlers.
A
few rides to take precautions on that could possibly cause a little
fear are the rides that are dark. These include Peter Pan’s Flight,
Pinocchio’s Daring Journey, Alice in Wonderland, and Snow White’s Scary
Adventure.
Keeping
in mind that Disneyland is a place for kids of all ages; there are many
areas of the park that have attractions and rides specific for toddlers
and meant to keep their interest level high too.
Be sure to pay
attention to the height and age requirements for each attraction, and
avoid taking your toddler to rides that interest you but may not be
enjoyable for your young one. This could cause your
child disappointment and make for a long day when they no longer want to stay.
General
areas that have toddler appropriate attractions are located close
together as much as possible. As an adult, you’ll realize that some
rides are simply not safe for small kids – but your little person will
not. So your considerable evaluation is needed.
All
in all, Walt Disney Park creators have made sure there is something
that entertains everyone and making sure there are plenty of locations
suitable for toddlers. We know the ever attractive theme park can be
enjoyed by all. But of course it’s up to you upon your visit to keep
your child safe, occupied, and interested.
