Hey Katie!
Thanks so much for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel with your question. I'm always happy to help a fellow Tennessean!
I'm sure you are getting excited about your upcoming
Walt Disney World Resort vacation. I know your little one is going to absolutely love it, and I bet y'all will make lots of magical memories! Be sure to capture the moments with
Disney Photo Pass Service so you'll get lots of family pictures with everyone.
Since your daughter is still under the age of three, she won't need a park ticket for admission but she can definitely still have her own
MagicBand. I recently took a two year old and a five year old on a trip with me and the youngest would have been quite upset if she had not had a MagicBand like her big sister. Of course, she didn't want to wear it half the time though but at least we had one for her! As for your dining reservations, you do need to include her in your party so you'll be seated at a table big enough for everyone to fit.
I hope this clears things up for you and please don't hesitate to let us know if we can help with anything else. Have a magical day and a wonderful vacation!
