Planning a Disney World vacation with a little one? We’ve been there! While the big thrill rides get all the hype, there are so many magical attractions perfect for toddlers and preschoolers. We’ve compiled a list of top 10 list of rides that are a perfect mix of excitement and gentle fun with no height restriction. We found it important to try and include our 18 month old where we could, and it was worth it to see him smiling and laughing, our favourite was Haunted mansion and we ended up doing this multiple times. The motion of the Jungle cruise also sent him straight to sleep, so this was worth it for that alone.
