Hi Anabel!
Welcome to planDisney! I'm Kristen, and I'm happy to be your planEAR. Thank you for sending this
Disneyland Resort vacation planning question to us hEAR!
Oh, I love that you'll be bringing your very own Junior Mickey or Mini Minnie with you to
The Happiest Place on Earth! Some of my very favorite memories with my Mouseketeer have been Disney days. I hope that you all enjoy every minute at Mickey's house!
I'm very happy to share that no, you do not need to bring any proof of age documentation for your sweet babe to prove that they are under the age of three to qualify for free
theme park admission. (Pro Tip: If you're flying in, check your airline's age policy because some do require official docs.) You'll simply carry,
stroll, walk, wear, piggyback, or dance your little one through the theme park turnstile entrances with you, and that's that! The same goes with anything else for which an older child might have a ticket - your son will not need to purchase his own
Disney Genie+ Service for the day, nor have a
Park Pass Reservation or
Lightning Lane Reservation! You'll just bring him on through the
attraction queues with you, as long as he meets or exceeds any noted height requirements.
The one place you will need to count your son is any
Disney Dining Reservations you make as he will count towards that restaurant's seat and fire code capacity. However, he there will be no charge for him at any meal served family or buffet style, so be sure to book a
Character meal!
Pro Tip: While it might be called the
Baby Care Center, be sure to drop by these cozy one-stop spots for everything you might need; from the items you might have forgotten to bring, like children's medicines or toddler meal supplies, to the comforts of home like a cozy diaper changing area to a teeny-tiny toilet for those who are learning to become big kids.
I hope this helped to clEAR up your question, Anabel! Be sure to follow the
official planDisney panel Instagram account for even more tips and tricks. And if you have any more
