    My uncle and aunt and I are going to WDW from 6/11-6/21. We are traveling with my 5yr old daughter and their son will be 7 months when we go. We were wondering what rides their son might be able to ride at any of the parks?

    Hi Treair,

    Thanks for writing!  We took both of my children to Disney before their first birthdays, and were surprised at how many attractions we could take them on.  In general, there are more rides they COULD rather than COULD NOT ride in our experience.  At the Magic Kingdom, for example, an infant can sit on an adult's lap on It's a Small World, Peter Pan, The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, Buzz Lightyear, Dumbo and Aladdin (these are just examples rather than a comprehensive list).  At Epcot, baby-friendly attractions include Nemo, Journey into Imagination and Living with the Land (again, these are just a few examples).  Both Animal Kingdom and Hollywood Studios also have many attractions with no height restrictions. 

    My suggestions for families traveling with tiny tots include bringing a stroller with a large canopy that reclines (for naps) and making use of the Baby Care Centers located throughout the parks.  These air-conditioned, serene retreats are the perfect place to feed and change little ones.  Your nephew may not remember his first trip to Disney, but like my boys, he will probably love looking at photos of himself making his debut at the Happiest Place on Earth!

    Have a great vacation!
