Hey, Jeannie!
Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel. Sometimes even big kids want a small meal and little kids want a big meal. Disney's official policy is "Kids' menu items for children ages 9 and younger."
In my experience, we have always been able to order anything from the menus at
Counter/Quick-Service restaurant but needed to adhere to the policy at
Table Service restaurants. If you have a child 9 years and younger with a Pooh-sized appetite, they are always welcome to order off the adult menu.
Disney Dad Tip: For picky eaters who eat more than a kids portion but prefer a dish from the kids menu, you may ask the server for a larger portion kids meal. We have asked for "larger" kids meals at every restaurant and the fantastic Cast Members have always made our "dreams come true." They want to make your experience the best possible.
Please let me know if you have any more questions to help make your Disney vacation more spectacular.
Jeannie, enjoy making many Magical Memories!
