Heigh, ho! Heigh, ho, heigh, ho... it's off to Walt Disney World you go, Melissa!
I'm so happy to hear that you're planning a Magical vacation for later this year and I'm happy to welcome you to planDisney where hopefully I can help make your preparation a bit easier. Both of my boys visited
the Most Magical Place on Earth when they were one-year-olds, so I appreciate this question.
Melissa, one of the best features of the MagicBand (
AND the
MagicBand+) is that you have the option of peeling away the outer layer to make the band smaller, which is what I did when my kids were toddlers. Now, please know that this won't guarantee a perfect fit, but it worked for my kids before they fit into the adult-sized band. Whether you purchase a standard MagicBand or the rechargeable MagicBand+, both have this option. When you flip the band over, you'll see how to peel away one portion. I will also share that while this helped the MagicBand fit my youngest, he was channeling his inner Stitch and not always being cooperative which meant pulling his MagicBand off his wrist, repeatedly. We realized that wearing his MagicBand on his ankle was a better option.
Whether you'll be using a standard ticket, MagicBand or MagicBand+ for your littlest Mouseketeer, I hope you can soak up all the pixie dust on your trip. As you continue planning, make sure to check out

Wishing you all the best in your planning. Please come on back to planDisney if you have any additional questions.
