Hi everyone -

My husband and I are going to be going to Disneyland with my family next month. We will be taking our daughter who will be 9 1/2 months at the time. My questions to you is what rides will we be able to take her on. I know that she won't be able to go on the big rides, but I am curious about the small ones. Also, if anyone has been to Disneyland with an infant do you have any tips that would be helpful to make it an enjoyable day? Thank you so much.

What can I do next?

I haven't been there with a baby, but in my opinion I don't think Disneyland would be very fun with a baby that age. She could probably go on the Its a Small World ride. Probably you can just walk around a lot and look at the ponds and the fishes, etc. But you can go to a park and do that. Sorry to be neg., i grew up in that area and got tired of Disneyland. It's too expensive and commercialized. But I think the age when I enjoyed it the most was btw. age 9-13, when I could go on the bigger rides. Maybe Knotts Berry Farm would be better? I remember my parents would take me there, when I was about age 3 ish and there were lots of fountains and fishes, and there are a lot of Western themed things there that may entertain your baby. Or Sea World in S. D.?

Hello, My husband, then 3yr old son, then 7 month old son, my Grandmother, and myself went to Disneyland last October. Let me start off by saying that I too was surprised at the amount of rides that my boy's could go on. Our 7 month old could ride on: It's a Small World, Horse Carrousel, Finding Nemo Submarine, Buzzlightyear Astro Blasters, Pirates of the Carribean, Jungle Cruise Boat, Casey Jr. Circus Train, Peter Pan (I believe),Donalds Boat, Disneyland Railroad, and many others. Toon Town in Disneyland is geared toward little people so there's more rides there aswell. At California Grand Aventure Park there's "It's a bug Life" theme park for little one's with rides that your daughter would enjoy. As for our 3 yr. old he could go on just about everything as long as he met the hight requirements. Which he did most of the time because he's very tall for his age. He even went on The Matterhorn and it turned out to be one of his favorites. The one's he couldn't go on were: Indiana Jones, Thunder Mountain, and Space Mountain. I don't know if your nursing, but I found it was a better experience with my nursing bib/shall. I bought it at Babies R Us. I believe there's only 1 designated Nursing station with a bottle warmer. All the bathroom's had changing diaper stations. Since there was only 1 place for nursing, I would just find a comfortable spot like an outside patio, bench, or half wall and nurse there. The park is so busy that no one pays attention to you feeding your baby. The bib is big enough that it keeps everything well hidden. It's also light and airy, so your little one doesn't get hot. I aslo found it was easier bringing our own stroller with us. Not only did it let our boys fall asleep when they wanted (and more comfortably might I add) but it also kept them safe and we could fit more of our belongings in the compartments below. Disneylands rentable strollers didn't look as comfy, and they didn't have very much for shade screens. They didn't recline and there was little room for storing your items. I hope this helps. Have a great time.

I love Disneyland but some of the themed rides can be scary for little ones. I would definetely recommend Lego Land. I took my kids there this summer and I was surprised how it was completely geared for toddlers. The rides there were perfect for that age. My sons are 4 and 9. I thought it was too childish for my 9 year old but he loved it. Disneyland is expensive but kids love it. Especially the parades! Have fun.

Anyway don't worry there's a lot of stuff that you can ride with your beautiful baby. Or maybe you can check Disney website first before you go to Disney and check on some of the rides.
Well have anyway...i'm sure you will have a lot of fun together with your daughter and your family
