Hi, Sarah! Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel and thanks for your question!
I am thrilled that you will soon be spending five glorious days at the Disneyland Resort! With your five-day ticket, you are entitled to one
Magic Morning at Disneyland Park. You can use this on either a Tuesday, Thursday, or Saturday to enter the park one hour earlier than general admission. If you are perhaps staying at one of the three Disneyland Resort Hotels, then you have access to a different early admission option, called
Extra Magic Hour, every day of your stay! Extra Magic Hour allows you into Disneyland Park on the same schedule as Magic Mornings, but also includes exclusive access to Disney California Adventure Park one hour early on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays.
During Magic Morning/Extra Magic Hour at Disneyland Park, you can enjoy most attractions in Tomorrowland and Fantasyland. We usually head straight to Space Mountain or Matterhorn Bobsleds, but you could also use this time to jump on Peter Pan's Flight, Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters, Star Tours - The Adventures Continue, Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage, and many others. Additionally, if you have any young Jedis in your group that want to participate in
Jedi Training: Trials of the Temple, you can sign up for a time slot during this early hour.
I'd love to share more, especially about my strategies for touring the parks early in the morning, so please stop by again with any other questions. See ya real soon!
-Linda
