Disneyland with toddlers definitely looks different than Disney before kids ✨

There are more snack breaks, stroller parking stops, bathroom runs, and “one more ride?” requests… 😅

But there’s also seeing Mater for the first time, meeting Chewbacca, holding little hands walking into Fantasyland, and hearing them talk about the trip for weeks afterward 🥹❤️

After several trips with our two boys, I finally put together our favorite Disneyland toddler tips — including Rider Swap, our favorite rides, our Southern California ticket hack, where we stay, and more.

Because Disney with little kids is magical… but having a little bit of a plan helps too 😉

🎢 Favorite toddler ride? Ours are Mater, Mickey Runaway Railway, Dumbo, and Chip ’n’ Dale’s GADGETcoaster!

✨ Save this for your next Disneyland trip with little kids! Link in bio!
