Disney World for babies: Disney’s Hollywood Studios

Disney's Hollywood Studios offers stunt shows and thrill rides that will be out of reach for many of Disney's youngest visitors, but there are still a number of options for families with babies and toddlers.

Probably the biggest draw for the stroller crowd is Playhouse Disney, which is a staged performance with live actors as well as animatronic characters based on Playhouse Disney characters. Playhouse Disney is updated on a regular basis, in keeping with the Playhouse Disney TV schedule. In recent years the cast has included Handy Manny, the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, and the Little Einsteins.

Just a few steps away from Playhouse Disney Live on Stage is the Voyage of the Little Mermaid, a live (and highly condensed) version of the hit Disney movie, The Little Mermaid. Like the Playhouse Disney attraction, a Fast Pass is available to cut down on the wait time (and the amount of time little girls will be calling out "I want Ariel!")

Live performances and parades are part of the pageantry at Disney's Hollywood Studios, so tots don't have to leave their strollers to enjoy shows like High School Musical or the Pixar Block Party. During the holidays, the Osborne Family Spectacle of Lights attracts visitors of all ages, delighting even the smallest Disney guests.
