    We are coming end November/early December this year. We have a 2 year old who is just starting to like slow rides. Can you let me know what is suitable for little ones in the parks especially Magic Kingdom and Animal Kingdom>

    Hi!

    You are in luck.  Most of the attractions are Walt Disney World Resort can be enjoyed by a 2 year old!  I know that might sound strange if your only experience is with regional amusement parks, but it is true.  You can get more information on traveling to Walt Disney World with very young children here.  Click on the planning guides on the right side of that web page.  Be sure to check on attraction height requirements; as you can see, there really are not that many.  If there's no height requirement then anybody can ride, including babies!

    The only thing I would warn you about is 3-D movies.  Most young children are absolutely terrified by them!  The only exception is Mickey's PhilharMagic in the Magic Kingdom.  It's fabulous. 

    By the way, be sure to watch Finding Nemo the Musical and Festival of the Lion King.  Both stage shows in Disney's Animal Kingdom are spectacular!  Fun for the whole family!
