HOW TALL YOUR CHILDREN SHOULD BE

Height is more straightforward.

Many rides at Walt Disney World–including many of the best–have minimum height requirements, usually determined by features of a ride’s safety system: its seat belts and such.

Some height requirements also serve as a proxy for sufficient maturity to not be emotionally overwhelmed by the “scary” aspects of a ride.

Fourteen Walt Disney World theme park rides have minimum height requirements, of which the “highest” requirement is 48 inches.

So a child who will be 48 inches tall at the time of his or her visit will be able to experience all rides at the theme parks.
