Hi Kathleen,
This is a really great question, because
Walt Disney World will surprise you sometimes with a sprinkilng of magical drops of water on some rides and attractions. Of course, there are some pretty obvious attractions in which you know you will get wet like
Kali River Rapids at
Animal Kingdom and all of the attractions at
Blizzard Beach and
Typhoon Lagoon.
I have a pretty good rule of thumb for knowing when you might get wet. If you are putting on 3D Glasses for the ride or attraction( eg:
Mickey's PhilharMagic,
Toy Story Mania!,
Its Tough to be a Bug,
Honey I Shrunk the Audience, etc) there is a very good chance that you will get a little wet. Generally speaking, on these rides or attractions you will be pleasantly surprised with just a generous sprinkling of water. It usually it not enough to douse or soak you. Just enough to make you giggle with the unexpectedness of the effect. Feel free to ask your
Cast Members, who are typically available at the entrance of most rides and attractions, for advice. One last good rule of thumb if the seats that you are sitting in when you board the ride or attraction are damp or wet, you know what to expect.
It may be a good idea for you to test the ride first, if possible, to ensure that your child gets the maximum entertainment experience. Overall, I believe you will find that the sprinkles of water that you will encounter will be minimum, but only you can determine what amounts are safe for your family. Have a magical vacation!
