    If my child is 3 do they require a lighting lane pass?

    Welcome to planDisney, Kristen!

    Walt Disney World is truly a magical place for little ones. With enchanting rides, character meet-and-greets, and plenty of kid-friendly activities, there's something special for everyone. Whether it's sailing through "it's a small world" or meeting Mickey Mouse, your Mouseketeer will fall in love with The Most Magical Place on Earth.

    If your child is 3 years of age, you’re in luck—children this age don’t need a ticket for park entry or a Lightning Lane pass. As long as you have a Lightning Lane Multi Pass, they're welcome to join you on an attraction (as long as they meet any height requirements, of course).

    Here's a helpful tip for families with young children: take breaks throughout the day to recharge. Little ones can get overwhelmed with all the excitement, so it’s a great idea to visit one of the Baby Care Centers for some quiet time. These centers offer a peaceful space where you can feed your child, change diapers, or just relax for a while. You'll find Baby Care Centers in each of the four parks—perfect for a quick pit stop when you need it!
