Top 5 Disneyland rides for kids
1. Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
You and the kids can pretend you’re mining for gold when you go for a ride on Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. Find a seat on a “runaway mine car” where you’ll speed past rugged bedrock, desert cactus and wind through a dark tunnel. Be prepared for thrilling sharp turns, dips and drops that will have the whole family screaming with laughter.
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is located in Frontierland at Disneyland Park. Guests have to be 40” or taller to ride. Disney FASTPASS Service is available on this ride.
2. Indiana Jones Adventure
Step into the world of archeologist Indiana Jones on this fun, bumpy adventure. Climb in a cool troop transport for a ride over rough terrain through the Temple of the Forbidden Eye. The Indiana Jones Adventure can get a little dark and scary, but your kids are likely to want to get back in line for this fast-paced journey again and again!
Indiana Jones Adventure is located in Adventureland at Disneyland Park. Guests have to be 46” or taller to ride. Disney FASTPASS Service is available on this ride.
3. Splash Mountain
Splash Mountain is a favorite for kids of all ages. It offers 950,000 gallons of water, 3 dips and a 5-story waterfall. With that said, the biggest questions will be, where will you sit? In the front where you’re sure to get soaked? Or in the back, where you might only experience a little bit of spray as you sail down the log flume?
Splash Mountain is located in Critter Country in Disneyland Park. Guests have to be 40” or taller to ride. Disney FASTPASS Service is available on this ride.
4. Jungle Cruise
When you’re in need of a break, but still want to have a little fun, take the kids on the Jungle Cruise. This is a slower ride, but it still promises fun and adventure, and the chance of getting a little wet! The Jungle Cruise was one of the first rides to open at Disneyland. Kids can pretend they are part of an expedition where they’ll see an array of (mechanical) elephants, hippos and lions. Adults will especially enjoy the funny guides. There aren’t any height restrictions on this ride, so it’s perfect for the whole family.

5. It’s a Small World
You simply cannot go to Disneyland and not ride It’s a Small World. This classic Disneyland ride takes you to all seven continents where you’ll see characters depicting children from nearly every part of the world. The message behind this ride is that “by seeing the world through the eyes of a child, we are all basically the same.” The catchy song will be a reminder of this message – and the ride – for years to come. There aren’t any height restrictions on this ride, so it’s perfect for the whole family.
