Hi Ann! Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel!
As a mom that has taken my kids to the Walt Disney World Resort since they were infants, I can say with all confidence that there is a LOT for
little ones to enjoy there! Most attractions don't have
height restrictions, so you'll find that your 18-month-old will be able to ride many rides, see lots of shows and, of course, meet the characters!
An activity that my kids really enjoyed at a young age was the music and performances that are around the theme parks. They LOVED stopping and dancing when they heard
The Dapper Dans singing in Magic Kingdom Park and the
Tam Tam Drummers of Harambe playing in Disney's Animal Kingdom. It is super important at that age to slow the pace down some and allow them to take in the wonder of it all!
Another fun activity for your little one is the
Casey Jr. Splash 'N' Soak Station in Magic Kingdom Park. This is a great place to take a break and let your 18-month-old run around in the water for a bit. Just remember a change of clothes for after!
I hope this gives you a little glimpse into how much there is for toddlers to experience around the theme parks, Ann! Please let me know if you have any other questions!
