    I couldn't find the answer to this question: We have booked a 'short' visit to DisneyWorld. My 6 yr old (47" tall) grandson's first trip. We want to know what rides he cannot go on before we get there. We are going to use the maps requested to plan.

    Most of the rides at Walt Disney World have no height requirement. However, for the safety of guests there are height requirements for some attractions. These height requirements vary widely; the requirement could be anywhere from 40" to 52" depending on the ride.

    You can find a complete list of height requirements on the WDW website. If you look at this page of travel tips for people with small children found HERE, you will see a button on the right hand side of the page that says "Height Requirements." Clicking on this link will bring you to handy pdf that you can download. The pdf lists the attractions in all four theme parks and both water parks that have height requirements. If an attraction is not listed on this document it means that there is no height requirement and any age/size child can enjoy the ride.

    As you can see, at 47" tall, there is very little that your grandson won't be able to participate in.

    Have a wonderful trip with your family.
