    I am planning a trip with a 12 yr old and a 6 yr old. I am the only adult going and I am concerned that my 6 yr old will not be tall enough to ride the rides my 12 yr old will want to ride. Is there a place to find the minimum height requirements?

    Hi Tara! One of the reasons I love Walt Disney World is that the vast majority of the attractions are suitable for the entire family to ride together. Only a limited number of attractions have height requirements, and I expect you'll be pleasantly surprised to find your six-year-old may be tall enough for many of those rides. Check out the Attraction Height Chart for a general list of the rides with height requirements. 

    If there are attractions that your 12-year-old wants to ride but your six-year-old can't, you can just tell the ride attendant that you all are going to wait in line together but that you and your younger child aren't going to ride. That way you'll be able to stay with your older child until he boards the ride and then meet him when he exits.

    Come visit us again at the Moms Panel if you have more questions! We'd love to help!
