When is a good age to take kids to Disneyland? And what rides to ride with are age group?

Me and my family and friends are going to Disneyland this coming May. My dads best friends kids are 5-6 and 8-9 maybe 10 I'm 14 almost 15 then and my lil sister is going to be almost 21 months. Do you think this is a good age group and what rides could we all ride together or what rides can me and the other kids ride without my sister? Thanks

*sorry if any miss-spelled words also we live in Hawaii so we are going to go the first day we get off which is a week before the mainland so there might not be long LONG lines

THANKS AGAIN

    Age: in my opinion you are never too young or too old for Disneyland

    Most of the rides that you will be able to go on will be based on height requirements. Check the Disneyland site for any restrictions. http://disneyland.disney.go.com/plan/guest-service...

    Most of the height restrictions are not set terribly high, even for the "thrill rides" because they want kids of all ages to enjoy the rides, so the next question is....

    Who in your party likes what type of rides.... thrill... mild... etc.

    Don't rule out what may look like a "kiddie" ride for some of the adults or older kids... all of the rides are fun... and Disneyland does not ever say you are too big or too tall to ride this ride...

    The baby will be able to go on some rides that will allow her to sit safely on the seat next to someone or on someones lap.

    Also check into what Disneyland calls "ride share or ride swap" which allows part of your group to stand in line and ride the ride while the rest wait at the exit with the younger kids that don't want to ride or can't, and then you "swap" out people to ride without having to wait in line again.

    You can ride a lot of rides even with your little sister who is almost 21 months!

    Here is a great link to help you see some of the rides and what may work for the people in your group according to Disneyland:

    http://disneyland.disney.go.com/attractions/list/#...

    In Disneyland there are numerous lands and I will categorize the rides by land

    *Adventureland

    - Jungle Cruise

    *Critter Country

    - The Adventures of Winnie the Pooh

    *New Orleans Square

    - Haunted Mansion (can sometimes be scary to some kids, truly does depend on the child)

    - Pirates of the Caribbean

    - The Disneyland Railroad (which circles around the entire park and stations can be found in Toontown, Tomorrowland, Mainstreet and New Orleans Square)

    *Frontierland

    - The Mark Twain

    - Sailing Ship Columbia

    *Fantasyland

    - Peter Pan

    - Mr. Toad's Wild Ride

    - The Carousel

    - Snow White

    - Pinocchio

    - Casey Jr. Circus Train

    - Dumbo

    - Tea Cups

    - Storybook Land Canal Boats

    - Alice in Wonderland

    - It's a Small World

    *Toontown

    - Roger Rabbit

    Tomorrowland

    - Finding Nemo

    - Buzzlighter Astro Blasters

    - Astro Orbitor

    - Monorail

    - Autopia (Only if your 21 month year old sister is 32" tall)

    Mainstreet

    - The Disneyland Railroad (which circles the entire park)

    - There are also, during the day, horse drawn carriages to ride, and what not.

    I believe that is all the rides the 21 month year old can ride. I may be forgetting a few, but that sounds about right to me! :)

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For the 5-6 year olds, if they are taller than 35" they can ride Gadget's Go Coaster in Toontown and the Matterhorn, which is in Fantasyland. If they are taller than 40" they can go on pretty much everything including some of my favorites, such as Splash Mountain (Critter Country), Big Thunder (Frontierland), Space Mountain and Star Tours, which are both in Tomorrowland, and last but not least Indiana Jones, which you unfortunately have to be a little bit taller. I believe you need to be 46" tall to ride Indiana Jones.

    I hope this helps! Remember there is more than just rides to do in Disneyland. There are shows too such as the Tiki Room (Adevntureland), Mr. Lincoln (Main Street), Captain EO (Tomorrowland), and a few more. Plus a firework show and a parade! :)

    I'm 15 and I went last year...I had a blast! I'm just a Disneyland person! To answer your question though, I would have to say ages 6-9. My dad first took me to Disneyland when I was 7 and I remember it good, yet I was still young enough to get autographs and meet the characters. It's really your choice though!
