    We are traveling to Disney in 2 wks with a 2 1/2 yr old and a 3 1/2 mth old. Are there any rides that I can go on with the younger one if she is in a carrier? For instance, it's a small world?

    Hi, Melissa! There are many attractions that you can bring a carrier on, whether it's an infant carseat carrier or a front baby wearing carrier like a Bjorn. Personally, I liked rocking the Bjorn because it was easier for attractions to accommodate this kind of carrier strapped to my muscular frame rather than flexing my muscles and hefting the carseat carrier along.

    Below is a list of the more ride-oriented attractions that I've had success wearing the Bjorn on. I've added an asterisk (*) next to those that we've either (1) brought a carseat carrier on or (2) would be good candidates to bring the carrier on (the criteria being no safety bars on the attraction and a stable area to rest the carrier. Cast members at each attraction will be able to help guide you on the best approach for the particular attraction.)

    Magic Kingdom
    Small World*
    Jungle Cruise*
    Pirates
    Magic Carpets

    You can even wear your 3 month old on the Disney Transportation System busses or bring the carrier onboard (stroller must be collapsed though.)
