I have been seeing more and more of these wagon , some of which are HUGE and have fancy sides and covers over them, Its totally rediculous unless you have a child that has dissabilities. Likewise there should be an age limit on children in strollers , I have seen kids way to big for them and they drag their feet on t he ground or have their knees almost in their face. . My kids were all walking there at age 4, and I had 4 yr old twin boys and a 5 1/2 yr old son….I had no problem with them taking off Like I said, children with dissabilities are a different story and should be allowed in strollers.
This has got to be the most fun I’ve had in a conversation like this in years. You guys are too funny! BTW, anybody that wants to drop a Micheala sure can!
We had our 6 year old grandson in a stroller off and on each day last month. My husband and I were talking about getting a stronger one for next Summer. Don’t like, keep walking by, it doesn’t hurt you to just keep walking by and mind your own business right?? It helped my grandson last open to close when he needed the breaks and it was great for storing things that we didn’t put in our locker.
Wagons are crazy and a stroller is cool. But can you imagine what Disney would be like with all those excited children free. It would be “uprise of the offspring” quickly for some people.
I think it’s really funny you leftist d-bags are referring to someone
as a karen that is sick of dealing with giant strollers. No, I’m afraid it’s the other way around. Entitled parents that believe everyone should bow down to them and their family is the most important family at Disney. If your kid can’t walk, they are to young. I took my 2yr old and she kept up just fine. Then again, we didn’t breast feed until 5 years old either.
Ok
Kayren take a chill pill. Most of these women are just too damn lazy to be chasing after their kids that’s the problem and having to be real parents. Walk with your kid like the rest of us did. To many freaking silver spoon princesses today!!! Grow up already!!!!
Your opinion is your opinion you don’t have to be a”Karen” to have an opinion and just because you disagree with an opinion doesn’t make you a “K aren”. Starting a argument by calling someone a “Karen” makes you a”Karen”. No response necessary considering I probably couldn’t find this website again if I tried.
I agree we who have children with special needs don’t deserve to be shamed at the deserve about the same respect as anyone with our a disability I will never take my son or daughter to Disneyland especially with kids cutting in line over the barriers
So you know they’re just going to make families with small children rent a stroller once they get in the park, driving up the cost of their visit, right?
Sidenote: We all know what “Karen” means in today’s vernacular. Just like “Barbecue Becky”, its not going away. If people don’t want to be referred to as a “Karen” they shouldn’t act like one. You might want to let this one go before “Kay” becomes synonymous with “crybaby hater”. That goes for the rest of you hating crybabies as well. You know who you are.
Dee, I’m with you all the way!
Why not make 4 year olds walk all over a Disney Park? Hey Dee, do you think Karen has actually been to a park and walked it herself or paid for anything in one? I don’t know about you, but I sure want my kids to enjoy all of that! Oh, and they did, every time and we used a stroller!
I still use a stroller and my kid is 6. She doesn’t sit in it the entire Day, but when she needs it, I have it. Also, I really could care less what anyone else thinks about it. I also use my stroller to carry a cooler and my shopping bags! It saves my back 😀
I have an almost 2yr old with severe sensitive and fair skin and the wagon is the only thing that covers her fully from the sun. Regular strollers still leave the legs uncovered and open to sun exposure. If I can’t take my wagon, we won’t spend our money there period.
Good for you, for standing up for yourself. It’s NOBODY’S business who uses a stroller, how old the child sitting in it is, or what you put in it… I’m so sick of NOSEY people
My grandkids weren’t little when we went to Disneyland last year but, I wish I’d brought my umbrella stroller. It can roll a heavy backpacks and drinks. We all had to take turns lugging the heavy backpack and would have been a nice extra seat for grandma. 🙁
I think it’s really funny you leftist d-bags are referring to someone

You people are ridiculous if you hate kids that much stay your ass home.Disney is geared for kids so get over it and you winning about your acting like a kid yourself
How wonderful for you that your children didn’t get tired walking through Disney at age 4. Not all kids hit the same milestones at the same time even without a Disability. And not all parents can pick up a tired 3 or 4 year old. Now would you know is that child has a disability or not? Not all disabilities in parent or child are visible.
So your baby need to stay at home for a good rest and no more long-distance & heavy walking trip to go^^ Disney is too difficulty to you and your baby so no need to go
This was my thoughts exactly ! Some kids and adults don’t get adequate amount of sleep at night and do need a nap! And these kids but definitely benefit in these wagons. It’s not like they have a nursery at the Disney park where the child can go into a building and take a nap on a bed. 😆 Can’t you just see it now, at each land at Disney world a “sleep station”? Because who wants to go back to the hotel just for a nap when there’s a Sleep station?? I should get paid for this idea! It’s going to make big money!
Absolutely. I am 76 and can’t carry my 4 year old grand daughter. THE IDEA that when I take her to Disney I have to pray she doesn’t get tired, ….no strollers is ridiculous.
Strollers or wagons should then be left in specific areas, say one area per “land” for those who wish to go on rides . Plus one adult per 2 children under 18, who MUST remain with parent at all times. Parent doesn’t want to go on a ride, child can’t.
They are not even thinking about parents with multiples. I have a set of twins and one on the way. Which I will be purchasing a wagon. I’m not trying to push two strollers.
Thanks for your comment PAC. We didn’t know why one of our sons wanted to be carried or ride so much in his stroller when his siblings walked more at amusement parks at his age. We didn’t find out he had a mild neuro-muscular disability until he was 6 years old.Even then it took a year to diagnose because it was so mild. I agree you cannot always see or know what the situation is and people should mind their own business. If your child can walk great, but don’t judge others when you have no idea what their personal situation is.
Kay, I don’t like the use of Karen or Dee. I have a neice Karen and my wife Dee.
Even though I ‘m aware of the meaning.. I’d prefer another term be used..
And I had better not give my suggestion.
Really you must need a trophy. But I’m gonna guarantee you weren’t the only adult on that trip. As a single mother I can tell you it’s impossible to have that age kids alone in the parks without a stroller. We would have never been able to make it. That doesn’t mean my just turn five year old didn’t walk most of the days but at nite time when they were tired I couldn’t have carried that many kids alone and their things. Keep your mom of the year attitude to yourself. We’re all just doing what we can as a mother for our children
You couldnt have said it better!! As a single mom and alone at the parks w my daughter when she got tired she just hopped in her stroller and fell asleep. I couldnt tell you how many people on that ramp yo get the monorail carrying the k.o.’ d tired child would look at me and say “omg i wish i would have brought the stroller my back and feet are killing me!”
You have no idea what that si gle mom has been through to be at that point. You should try much harder to make sure your mind is in gear before mouth in motion. What is she lost her significant other due to line of duty or cancer loss? Let that sink in.
Maybe just maybe if they are too tito walk, maybe leave instead of having a grumpy walking around. I know it cost a pretty penny to go there now, but maybe it’s something to think about. There are other people there also paying another of money too. Maybe you could think of them.
It is most definitely NOT impossible. I’m a single mom and we had season passes for 12 years.. I took my niece when she was young like that… then my daughter. We would bring a small backpack with snacks and sandwiches and they would walk.. no problem. When they got tired we would go to the tiki room and take a break. We also did Disney World when my daughter was 5.. no stroller.. no problem. They just get in the way. Ridiculous. Our rule.. ” if YOU bring it.. YOU cary it!” They learned quick to leave stuff at home or in the car. It really limited the crap we had to lug around. Now.. my daughter is 14. We travel light and often. It’s all about what you will put up with as a parent and how far their tantrums get them.
I have this problem at our zoo with parents pulling wagons. I wouldn’t have minded so much if the parents in charge of the wagon watches out for the people crammed in the tight space around them. I nearly tripped over this one guy wagon many times. If I hadn’t been watching I could have got seriously hurt.
Good to hear you didnt trip Because You Were Paying Attention…. Thats The Key “Pay Attention” its not the parents fault most people are so self involved that they dont notice a large object near them and trip over it.
Good to hear your kids were walking at those ages, but there are a lot of undiagnosed kids with disabilities out there that don’t start walking until much older. Perhaps those kids are just undiagnosed. Also why does it bother you that parents bring fancy strollers for kids older then the age you listed? Kids and adults get tired too.
It’s really not that serious. I think it helps the parents to keep up with everything and helps prevent child abduction and children from wandering off. Pervert patrol these places and I feel having kids in strollers and wagons helps prevent that crap! 🤷♀️
Who are you to tell parents what kind of stroller/wagon they can use? If you don’t like them, don’t use them. Your opinions are YOUR opinions and if I had a young child and I wanted to use the wagon while in an amusement park, then your opinion doesn’t matter to me. They didn’t use your money to buy it and they are NOT making you use one for your child, so mind your own business.
I don’t think it’s the wagon itself. From what I’ve seen while in Disney which is often, is the lack of consideration that wagon, stroller, motorized scooter peoplehave towards others. It is a problem that has been growing for years. I love kids but to drag a bus around Disney is a little much.
Well good for your kids. If you like torturing your back to back kids yay for you. Normal Lil kids get tired and need a nap sometimes. I concur about the big kids in strollers but NONE of that is your business. Geez y’all worried about other people. MIND YOUR BUSINESS. It gonna suck if they take that away AGAIN. Ridiculous and shameful Disney us getting
Some children don’t need disabilities for their parent to bring a stroller along in case they get tired, little children get exhausted walking around a park all day. Stop being ignorant. And for a park that’s supposed to be inclusive this is EXTREMELY disgusting.
I would like to say first off , learn to spell, are you sure you don’t have a disability yourself, second kids get tired , if your kids have super strength well great , but a 2 or 3 even a 4 year old in Disney parks is going to get tired , so are parents going to carry their kids all around the park because you think having a stroller is bad parenting , give .e a break lady , you need your head examined , stay out of other parents business and mind your own
Why is it bothering U what other ppl are doing with their kids? If they dont want to carry their kid most or any of the time U have the option of using Ur stroller or wagon. Ppl dont want to carry kids, souvenirs, bags of supplies, food etc because their stroller or wagon for their convenience bothers U. Just keep on walking with Ur kids and go about Ur day easy🤷♀️. Talking about it should only be for the disabled is crazy, as big as Disney world is for a kid to walk the whole time is outrageous 🙄🙄
Please! You sound so condescending. Do you know there are disabilities that are NOT visible to the naked eye? Also, what sane parent wouldn’t want their 3-4-5 & yes 6yo TODDLERS to rest at points throughout the hot long activity filled day??? Resting in strollers is a great way for some children to eat, sleep, take a time out & regroup with sight seeing… the question is, why are you making your 4yo walk for hours & hours. I bet that’s the child who’s screaming, hollaring, not listening & is making a parent ready to call it a day… How about the parents who have disabilities themselves & rely on their child’s wagon or stroller to carry their bags, belongings too…
Exactly, people should be able to take care of they’re needs they’re way. Waggons and strollers are needed by parents, then use them. Disney makes it very clear how little they care about kids. And the RIDICULOUS amount of money they charge, hell to the no your telling me i have to carry my child when i literally cant or put them in danger of getting lost or separated. Let parents make the choices themselves about they’re kids. I will never understand how some people’s Brians work. And people can have opinions, but not decide what a parent needs for they’re own child.
They’re not saying you can’t have a reasonable size stroller. What people are tired of is the giant wagons that up much more space than other carriers.
My husband and I are always telling young people about the “Rule og 6”. A gentleman on the bus used this when someone asked what age is too young for Disney. If thryre younger than 6, they won’t remember it. If they’re younger than 6, they have meltdownl. No one has a good time…the poor child, the parents and the other guests.
Good for you….glad you’re one of those self proclaimed perfect parent with super human children….
But let’s break down reality. I would rather a child be happy and safe in a stroller or wagon. I would rather see them able to enjoy the park than being hot, tired, and cranky.
We all know a tired and cranky little is going to cry and be miserable and toss out a few inconsolable fits at ear piercing octaves for all to enjoy.
I opt for strollers and or wagons over miserable screaming children and frazzled and stressed parents.
How about we just let parents decide on what’s best for the children they know better than anyone. I am pretty sure parents know the limits of their littles better than anyone. Stroller or Wagon or none….it’s a parent’s choice how to enjoy their vacation the best way for them and their family.
We don’t care about your kids all kids are different. 🙄🙄🙄my kids are 4 are 6 and need a stroller or wagon they cannot walk long hours and yes my son has a Autism and ADHD but yeah. Just cause your kids don’t mean shid. Get yourself one instead of trash talking another parent and their kids.
Why does it bug you so much, if SOMEONE ELSE’S child is in a stroller or wagon ?? I’d say that’s none of your business. That’s half your problem, you mind everyone else’s business too much.
Keep your nose in your own lane
KAREN KAREN KAREN… picking on strollers and Wagons, should be ashamed, good for you to have a 4 yr old that can run 3 hours straight and not get tired. Mine throw a tantrum get tired and need to sleep after 20 mins max. I’m not carrying them for 3 or 4 hours. The very definition of a “KAREN.” Just nitpick, micro manage and pushing your ideology in people’s fave without thinking about how I.R.L. really works.
Just because your 1/2 yr can walk doesn’t mean anything and what if one of your children got lost how would you feel you would be like I should have let some sit in a stroller we have 5 kids in our family 4 under the age of 6 and it would suck if you had to make sure they all stay together because they are kids who just want to run around I think with that age limit idea is fine for 5 and under but making a 1/2 yr walk that is outrageous
there should not be an age limit. children with disabilities need strollers. some of of them are risk for running and a special needs stroller is expensive. just because your kids could walk doesn’t mean other kids can. you don’t know what the child might have going on. think before you judge a parent on the stroller
I think people like you should mind your own business. How does someone with a wagon stroller effect you? Oh no, better yet, it’s not the wagon stroller that effects you, it’s the fact they have sides and a canopy? Jealous? Have you not seen rules? These strollers ARE banned UNLESS it’s a child with disabilities. So, there ya go judgmental Jenny! All the strollers you all see in the park, that are wagons, are children with disabilities! Then let’s address putting an age limit on who can ride in a stroller? Lol, that’s again, NONE of your business! It’s NOT effecting you if someone’s 6 year old is in a stroller! They look fully healthy, so they should walk? Again, not that it’s ANY of your business ess, but their are disabilities you can not see, and perhaps some of ththos”bigger kids” in strollers, suffer from one.
I feel like most of this is jealousy that nobody will push us “big kids” in strollers, so we act like kids not minding our own business.
I feel like you’re also the type to see me in a scooter, then walk to the ride, and talk crap because I’m just lazy using a scooter, and not disabled.
Not all disabilities are visibly there to outsiders.
But, if I go ahead and stand in line then pass out onto a group of people, over and over again, I guess it would be Visible. Smh
You say when your children were walking, good for you. Was that 40 years ago when there was less to do, less hours, less people, less electronics, less reservations and waiting? If not, then I feel bad for the 4 year old you made walk brisk with the adults to beagle to do all there is to do in the parks. Some people have a once in a lifetime vacation, and the stroller makes it easier to maneuver with small children.
Man, “mind your own biscuits and life would be gravy”
Just because you force your poor children to walk the entire time through such a large park does not mean every parent should be just as mean. Parents don’t only put their children in strollers and these new wagons you spoke of just because they are concerned about them walking off but also because they want to allow them to get out of the sun and rest. Who cares if they drag their feet or their knees touch their face. How are those things your problem??? There is no way I’m going to force my young children to walk for 8 plus hours through a theme park without a stroller for them to rest in every so often. Maybe I’ll go get one of those big fancy wagons you mentioned. Parents have the right to push their you children through the park in strollers so please stop trying to take that right away from us just because you don’t.
Using 5 1/2 and 4 year old children as an example of being too tall for strollers is a really bad example as there are no children that age too tall for the strollers on the market today. Even a child at 4-5 1/2 that’s in the 100th percentile for height, meaning they’re taller than 100% of kids their age, would still fit comfortably in any stroller on the market today. Now the 8-10 year old I’ve seen in the strollers are the ones dragging their feet on the ground, but I also don’t know the situation, and won’t spend my time or vacation getting upset about kids I likely won’t see ever again and that I don’t know their personal history as to why they’re in the stroller.
Well what I would like to know is what what happens if you have 6month old or 1 yr old are you supposed to make them walk or carry rhem all day !! This should be done case by case !! Not just a complete ban !!! Not only that who can afford to go to Disney the prices keep going up!! I priced a trip for my wife 14 year old son and myself it was close to 2 grand sorry Disney I have better things to spend 2 grand on !!
Just so you know wagons ARE banned unless a child in the party has a disability. So your talking crap about the wagons you see but they DO have a disabled child. Just because you cant tell by looking at the child doesnt mean they are not disabled shame on you for judging. Also every child is different not all can go all day walking around the parks like yours. And why would you subject small children to like 20 miles of walking? Many guests come from across the country and stay in the parks open to close to get there moneys worth because its so expensive. And who cares if a child has his knees close to his face in a stroller? Or dangles their feet from them? Why is that any of your business? YOUR kids are your business not everyone elses. The AUDACITY of some people I swear.
You don’t always know by looking at them, how old the child is or why they need to be in a stroller. Some disabilities are invisible and that stroller is their safeplace and a lifeline. Don’t judge.
I agreed with the wagons but the strollers? I have a 3 year old and 9 month old and I have Scoliosis. What should I do? Disney continues to cut their legs off. Having pedos as employees and making horrible movies and live actions.
Just please keep in mind not all disabilities are visible. My 6-year-old daughter has a heart condition, so we still use a stroller for her. I realize this might look ridiculous to some, but there is a reason for it.
You cant demand to know if a child is handicapped and ask for proof! They dont have any effect on you. And its not your place or disneys to mandate restrictions
Absolutely, kids w/physical disabilities should be allowed otherwise para/quadraplegics, spina bifida, palsy, etc. kids will never know the joys of Disney which Cannot happen in this day & time and if not the world won’t be small after all.
For years people have survived with a simple stroller, if needed, I know we did. In this world of parents catering to kids every whim they now bring these things and everything but the kitchen sink. Kids never walk, including older kids. Parents… be a parent!
Really….you go to a place known for being the Happiest place on earth. A place that caters to children and families from all over and you think that all those families and people should think just like you? Because in your opinion you know what’s best for all those families? That to me sounds more entitled than a parent doing what they feel is best for their child to be able to enjoy a vacation that costs a pretty good penny now a days. I bet you would be the one to complain about a screaming,tired over stimulated child in a park ruining your vacation because you don’t want a parent to use a stroller…. 😂
People please if you don’t like kids and are going to complain about strollers then stay home..next lets stop a group of adults that 5 or 6 of them all rented the motorized scooter. There are more issues with them going in the park like a parade. I can see if you have a disability just like ones complaining about kids strollers. What it comes down to dont ruin your vacation as to what other people are doing do what is right for you and go enjoy your vacation..
I do say should just be strollers NOT the wagons. But have to have understanding if a family has triplets and their stroller is longer.
Life is to short to keep complaining about families and strollers. They have to put them in stroller parking areas for rides . Now if you want to really complain about something lets talk about the people the push in at last minute for a spot for the parade..crowd families that have been waiting sitting so they had a spot for the parade and people come last minute and push right in…
Or let’s complain about the family of 15 cutting the line to catch up to the one person they had waiting for awhile. That one is more annoying than any stroller ever will be.
Who cares how old the kids are- it’s none of your business! I don’t care if their 10 year old is in it or if no children just purchases! They paid for their tickets just like you!
I actually really miss the pre-covid days when you could ship your purchases back to your resort. And believe me, on occasion when I bought things early in the day using this method, it was easy to forget exactly what I’d gotten by the time I got back to the hotel tired from the day. Getting the call the next day to come pick up your packsge from the resoer gift shop and opening it in the room really was like a little extra shot of magic.
Yes! this! When I was a kid you could have it delivered for free right to your actual room and they would have it on your beds when you returned from the parks. It literally was like an extra shot of magic. They’d even set the stuffed animals up on the beds. So cute and personal, but I’m sure impossible to keep up with. But just having it go back to the resort for pickup alone really was a godsend
This whole thread is a sad state. As adults we should be loving and caring. It really shows how people think only their voice should be the rule. Children need to rest. I used strollers for my son. And my Dad used a scooter because he had 2 bad knees and a heart condition. But we always considered others. We stayed out of the way and made sure we looked at the day realistically. I knew the we had to be realistic about how the day would pan out. We used to go to Disney every few years but won’t go any more. The company that exists now is not the one Walt created. The last thing I will say is be kind be kind be kind!
I can see banning the wagons and such but never the 1 or 2 child regular stroller the parents need them. If they have more stuff the backpack idea is great.
Wagons are not permitted unless needed for medical use. I worked park entry at magic kingdom so if you see a wagon inside the park it should have a blue strap on it. If it doesn’t alert a cast member
I hope somebody does not pull off the blue strap. What a place to be if they let you in with it and you have someone trying to cause problems. Run to a staff member, really?
First, I agree with banning the wagons. Please realize that little ones (up to about 5 yo) can’t keep up with the adults, and end up being carried. This is not a good situation. We kept our girls in strollers for our convenience til they were almost 5.
I do wish DL would enact really strict rules about stroller size. AND be firm about wagons. I’ve seen people with wagons with the “medical exemption” tag whose kids are running all over the place; the wagon is to hold their stuff. They could make it easier on families by (I’ve made this suggestion a million times) putting in more lockers and reducing the fee to $1/day. Disney doesn’t need the revenue from lockers; they DO need to make it easier for people to navigate the parks. I’m tired of seeing parking lot sized stroller parking full of SUV sized strollers, and people carrying all their worldly goods with them. Cheap lockers would make it possible to put jackets, purchases and extra stuff away. This would also reduce theft from strollers (although who leaves stuff on a stroller?).
Parents need to behave responsibily also. Parents RUNNING out of the parks is not necessary. Need to catch a bus…..leave the parks earlier. I was bumped/pushed by a parent rushing with a stroller. As a result, I suffered an injury (fell face first) and paramedics had to be called. Either the person didn’t notice or just didn’t care.
I have also seen parents pushing the double stroller’s through crowds like a snowplow, not actually hitting anyone of course, but in a very aggressive and bullish manner.
We tracked that we walked an average of 8-11 miles a day at Disney World, so yeah I’d say making a 4year old, who has to take 3-4 times more steps than you per adult step, walk that 3-4 DAYS in a row is borderline child abuse. Just No. I regretted not letting my 7year old have a stroller halfway through day 2. :/
Wow these comments sure are judgemental without knowing people’s situations. My family uses a wagon stroller for our kids ages 2, 7, 8 and 9. We are not local, so when we go to Disney we stay for 3-5 days at the parks. We have kids with dietary problems, one kid with undersized feet that get sore very easily, one kid with ODD, and of course the 2 year old who still needs a diaper bag. Do we enjoy pushing around a heavy wagon with all sorts of crap in it? Absolutely not. But we have a large family, doing a long trip that we saved up for years for. We will be staying from open to close because we can’t afford to stay on-site at the resort. So, sorry, but I promise that we hate these stupid wagons even more than you do!
Lmao oversized feet?!? For real?!? My god thats hysterical 🤣 dietary issues?! What does that have to do with an oversized unnecessary wagon? And for those of you saying “well some of us have multiples of children” ummmm stop having litters you cant manage then! Its not others responsibility to make way for a family and their hurd of kids! People and children have survived for 50+ years with their children walking Disneyland and Disney world. Stop with all your BS excuses as to why your child and family should be more entitled. “Oversized feet” 🤣🤣🤣 I cant get past that one without laughing hysterically
It was undersized feet…meaning her child has teeny tiny feet. Not much to laugh at when this child has a harder time walking 8-11 miles. You sound unnecessarily cruel without an ounce of empathy. Let’s hope you don’t have children from the sound of your post.
Kids get tired after a long day. Maybe the wagon is their answer to having to having to wear a sweaty backpack in the Florida heat, and the wagon doesn’t topple over like an umbrella stroller.
Can’t we go back to No Judgment? You do you? Disney World used to be a Happy Place. Now all everyone does is complain and fight. Don’t worry about anyone else – go make memories with your family!!
Disney was owned by family at one time. NOW, it is corporate. Family values are gone. Check out the sting they did on employees, molesters. Heart broken.
Now if they would ban the over weight too lazy to walk adults on the power scooters that would be great!! Most of them rent one and have never operated one and have no problem running you over!! Even my husband’s service dog has been hit!!
Y’all can have it! We don’t do Disney anymore in the first place! Secondly, all it is is another ploy for people to spend more money, specifically for those rental strollers. Get your act together with all these rumors of child molesters and child grooming movies and content. Do better, Disney!
If you want to complain, complain about the price of admission. When it comes to kids in strollers mind your own business. We didn’t know until my son was 6 that he had a very mild neuromuscular issue and he rode for a long time as a young child before doctors could diagnose him. Don’t judge folks when you haven’t walked in their shoes on what is best for their family.
There is no reason to have huge stroller. Most of the people who bring them in the park don’t even know how to navigate them, they are constantly hitting and running into people with them. Also, kids to big to be in stroller and some just use to put packages in, no kids.
Maybe start charging admission for one year old, and two year olds, who are coming in the park and have no real reason to be there other than the parents think that they are guilty to leave them alone at home or with a sitter or somewhere else. The one year-old is not having any fun and neither are the parents’ or the siblings who want to enjoy the park. The entire day is spent trying to figure out how to babysit the one year-old and two-year-old children and change their diapers and make sure they eat and make sure they’re not crying and it’s not too hot etc. No one is having any fun in the whole purpose of going there is to have a family experience, which is lost on everybody . And the only reason they bring them is because it’s free and of course they have to have a stroller to put them in because they can’t walk around themselves and it’s a babysitting deal. If you charged for it, that would illuminate most of those children from coming in the park and you wouldn’t have the stroller problem that you have.
There should be an age limit to how young children should be anyway if they require a stroller then they’re to young to be at Disney and other then special needs kids the rest can walk
As a single mother of 3 I had my just turn 4/5 in a double stroller and I had to lug it on and off buses and you know what thank god I did! We wouldn’t have been able to go had I not had the option to rent that. I couldn’t carry two toddlers at the end of the fireworks or Parade. I’m one person. I will never regret having that and if they take that away for moms or parents that need that it’s really not okay.
Eh.. strollers whatever.. what I can’t stand is all the people claiming to need the disability passes. Why in the world does Disney not require a proof of disability from whatever state you are from in order to get these passes. We recently were at Disney in CA and waited 2 hours to be seen by a crew member for these (special passes) (which we had proof for) absolutely crazy that they do not require disabled proof… versus all the people claiming issues and then literally running from ride to ride then all of a sudden sitting in a wheelchair.. super frustrating for those who actually have issues to see it allowed to be taken advantage of.
You know there’s this there’s that you hear everything about Disneyland they’re taking all the Bibles out of the Disneyland. It’s like Tanic the don’t want no strollers they don’t want this. They don’t want that you know what just close the park down because after a while ain’t nobody gonna be going and attending and taking their family there anymore.
Yeah my daughter walked the whole park 4 days in a row at 2 and 4. My son however would have never made it at 4.5 and will still need a stroller next year at 5.5 if we go. How about letting each parent do what their child needs.
Well I spend 1200 on a stroller to carry me 3 grandchildren and they are 1, 3,and 5 and I can’t bring it in. I need to make SURE they are safe and keep together. So all you complaining must not care about the whereabouts of your small ones. STOP BEING KARENS AND DARRENS.
Who cares how old the kids are- it’s none of your business! I don’t care if their 10 year old is in it or if no children just purchases! They paid for their tickets just like you!
The Magic Kingdom is filled with the Stroller Beasts! This is what my daughter & I call them. It is so ridiculous sometimes to the number of these things that are moving thru the park.
I Don’t Think They Should Ban The Strollers Of Course Not At Least Not 1-2.. Its A Family Theme Park, Only Children Will Need Them & They Rent Them There As Well They Make Profit Anyways But Wagons On The Other Hand I Can Probably See That Getting Banned But NOT STROLLERS !
I keep hearing everyone complain about the strollers so what are parents supposed to do if they have 3 to 4 kids under the age of 2 or 3 make them walk a big park !!!! You all need to get real
Disney has become a total joke. Totally lost its Magic The strollers have become annoying over the years, but letting visitors just go wild , cursing, cutting lines giving in to the pressure, dirty parks and resort grounds etc etc . Universal HERE WE COME !
This world is going to hell in a handbasket. I cannot believe the amount of people on here whining about their child being tired or having disabilities. Victim mentality is strong. A majority of these people are probably just fat and can’t handle watching their kids properly so they strap their kids in a hummer sized monstrosity.
Probably on a motorized scooter wheelchair themselves because they have a “disability”…. I mean fat and lazy. No you don’t need an army tank of a stroller to watch your kids, or to keep them from getting abducted, or “pervert patrol.” Raise your kids right and they can walk a few steps. Perhaps actually raising them means not shoving a device in their hands every time they get ornery, who knew. Smh
Honestly it’s annoying having to navigate parks with those bulky obnoxious strollers/wagons. You parents expect everyone to care about your kids! Children die from school sh00tings you hear nothing in regards to banning guns but ban a stroller then the claws come out. Plain and simple your suburban sized strollers are hazards.
If your child is big enough where you don’t want to carry them in your arms, they don’t need a stroller. My parents had me walking everywhere when I was a child.
yas , you should do homework on what the park has to offer young children as they encourage younger children to be there. The Florida heat can get anyone but taking strollers away will be catastrophic.
there’s no way a disney park in Florida can start this. the heat is too much its wrong !!!
people pay so much to enjoy this theme park for their children. preschools don’t even let the kids out at certain times due to the heat yet disney expects families with small children to walk around all day or carry kids in this …has to be a joke. sooo many law suits are gonna start happening when kids and adults start having heat strokes. also all those with disabilities.this is terrible and inhumane makes me sick. why can’t they just make reasonable restrictions and actually enforce them. it’s not hard.my family and I won’t be going as we planned if this is in affect
Why are we complaining about strollers now? My son does not use them but I don’t care about if someone is using them. It is all about convenience. Just enjoy the park and stop complaining. Nevertheless, I would be more strict with the line policy. I don’t like having 12 individuals from the same group saying excuse me my grandma is inline waiting we have to get there.
These pansy parents crack me up.
Need a small, collapsible stroller? Great. Need a kiddie wagon so you can also drag around all your crap? No.
Wonder how all these entitled parents, raising entitled kids would feel if I bring my kiddie wagon to the movie theater in case Junior needs a nap? I wonder how they would feel if I brought a pack n play playpen on an airplane?
Let your children grow up, right after you grow up, parents.
Wow. So many of you are arguing and commenting and yet clearly did not read the article. 1) the ban is on wagons basically not strollers.
2) the ban has already been in affect in the US resorts since 2019.
3) the article States the ban is now being put into affect at Shanghai Disney resort.
So how about you read the article before you comment and make ridiculous assumptions about what is being banned, claiming Disney is attacking parents, strollers or disabled children?
A stroller and a huge wagon are 2 different things. My daughter is about to be 4 and I still use a stroller for her if we are out at a large place such as Disney. Little legs get tired and a stroller allows her to rest and even take a nap. There is nothing wrong with it. I would never tell someone else what they can or can not do. Everyone do what works for you and stay out of people’s business.
This ploy of banning strollers is just another way for Disney to make more money by renting strollers to families. Follow the money! DISNEY IS ALL ABOUT MAKING MONEY! That is the bottom line!
Seems like the only change at Disney in the last 50 years of me going to the Mouse House is the quality of the parents.
Their over all lack of consideration for others is off the wall. We would never considered bring a three wide stroller to the park, but these days everything is for, me forget everyone else.
We didn’t bring our kids to the park until they were able to make their own way and where old enough to appreciate the rides.
I’ve seen post saying couples with no kids should be bared form the park because they take up to muck room maybe we should bar kids younger than seven from the parks and lose all strollers.
Sorry I understand children get tired but a wagon isn’t needed. If your child is at a certain age like 8,9,10 you shouldn’t using strollers. This is why you plan your day accordingly to their ages. Go back to the hotel instead of pushing what you want to do over what the age of your child can do. I know how hard it is to go to a park with your children but use your brain. No one should have to worry about getting hit with a wagon.
I don’t think anyone fully understands. Small strollers are fine, and even the double ones. My son has mobility issues, and we are annual passholders at Disney. Navigating around the huge strollers and wagons has caused issues several times, and more so this year. Blocking walkways and *ramps*, the one woman left hers blocking the companion rest room I use with our son while she went in the regular restroom, I have seen people flip out on cast members when they cant bring the large stroller in places or when they are asked to move the stroller blocking a path, some people will leave a stroller or wagon in one part of park all day and become enraged when it is moved by a cast member or when items go missing. The best was the woman who left her wagon and stroller in the service dog relief area, and got upset when it was moved. From what I was told was that it was a ban on large strollers and wagons. I think it’s a great idea I hope they are able to make it work.
I don’t care about the strollers nor wagons. I was taught that if something doesn’t pertain to me, to not worry about it. That has nothing to do with me and my experience there. People worry about the wrong things.
I think these wagons are great.
Especially when spending an entire day somewhere. You can keep your kid and all the stuff you need in it.
Makes life so much easier.
I’m a grandma. Took my 6 yr old granddaughter to Disney. I wish I had my wagon that day.
Wow I cannot believe how insensitive people are. Next they will call for a ban on people who use scooters to get around. People are just plain getting mean. Until you know what someone’s situation is. Stop and think before you open your pie hole. Disney is a big place with room for everyone.
Disney is a place for fun. Who ever said kids under 4 don’t remember the time they had there is Totally wrong. My 2 1/2 Grandaughter never forgets Woody & Jesse. You don’t need to bring the house but a stroller for then to rest when they are tired is a must. It’s also for the parents sanity
It’s Disney is it? Thought it was supposed to be a kid friendly park? Strollers or not… how are parents supposed to carry diaper bag and their kid .. some people have twins even triplets… Lawd make it make sense
What age are we talking because I’m not carrying none of my kids around when im at any huge area. I dont understand how strollers or wagons are that much of a problem when Disneyland has way othe big issue they need to resolve
My daughter has a non verbal 4 year old and a wagon is where he feels safest, his younger brother also rides with him. It’s more controlled than a stroller where they could not move about.
My opinion is as a parent you totally waste your time and money your energy by taking children. Children who just cannot even get on Any rides or their just way to sceard to interact to places like this because it’s over rated over crowded and not even worth it how is a magical place if all you see are red hot faces that are screaming and crying because they are not happy as a parent who use to work for disney I saw it every day it’s not a happy place it’s a huge headache it’s too
crazy hot everyone needs to know your children and know where you’re going basicly if your under 10 you waste your time your money and the stress of everyone just because they might have 1 or 2 rides doesn’t make it even better because that’s where everyone goes and the line is way to long and the waiting is crazy so I AGREE NO STROLLERS DISNEY is not for children under 10 your only going because you want to go
You cater to everyone else but not children?
Sure I agree that there are some kids way too big for strollers but a parent with a little one needs their stroller and not a wagon . Focus banning something and leave strollers alone.
You all are mean, don’t be hating on the ones that have them. I am a grandma to a 10 month only, 5 yr old and 6 yr old (all boys). You darn right I will use our wagon or stroller. Not only for them to rest and for me, but to keep them safe (they are just so darn convenient). I don’t really care what anyone thinks of me. Get over it!
Wow y’all this comment thread was funny until it wasn’t. Here’s my take on the matter. Disney has always had some amazing things and not so amazing things. All that aside. What is nice is that once you get past security with what you’re allowed in the park for your kids, its up to each family who knows their own limitations to decide how to have the most fun balanced across whatever group or family unit they have. No two groups or families are the same. The less time your judging others is less you can have fun and enjoy yourself. Yes some people do abuse the System but not everyone. You choose is that ruins your joy not their actions. They aren’t even thinking about you.
Strollers and wagons provide help and a way for some to have fun easier than others. But at the same time it can also be a burden because they can’t go on the rides with you. Anything you leave in the checked wagon/stroller park is subject to people who steal kid stuff from them. I had it happen everytime I’ve gone. Do to the needs of our group each time we have needed a stroller and sometimes also a wheelchair. For some that can’t be helped. And for many it takes time to even save the money to afford such a vacation so why shouldn’t they spend it how they want if they are paying for you. For those of you getting snippy, do you do this on all your vacations? Leave behind critical remarks on every hotel room door and such?
Bottom line. Enjoy your vacation and let everyone else enjoy Thiers. Remember people who aren’t turds enjoy more life 🤣
I think there needs to be some rules for size etc. I was on a bus and was knocked down by a double folded stroller not being held. I had bruises down my legs and lost a day in the park with only a quick sorry. I see the need but with proper use! I small child would have been seriously hurt!!
I hope this doesn’t include disabled people, with walking difficulties, that normally use electric scooters to travel the Disney parks. If so, I would consider this very discriminatory
A couple years ago I was in Fantasyland and a women yelled “ ugh, oh my gosh there are too many strollers, it’s so annoying!”
Did she forget she was at Disneyland? Also she was in an area where kid rides were. Some people are going to complain no matter what. If they don’t like it they should just stay in the comfort of their own homes.
When you knock people for wanting to keep them safe. Shame on you. If you cant afford the wagon don’t be jealous. Its a-lot easier to push 4 kids in the nice wagon. You comments are ignorant. I hope Disney losses a fortune for their decision. Its about the kids.
If you have kids if you need the room why not us a wagon but that mine opinion I don’t care if you use a stroller,or a wagon some people need to mind your own business
They should rename them SUV’s. (Small utility vehicles) I’ve seen them used for so much more than children, people haul their stuff as well. They are pretty convenient, no matter what size, shape or color they are. They are great as long as people are responsible with them. My issue with them anywhere, not just @ Disney, it the people operating them. Some people don’t care about other people. Blocking paths, doors, walkways and practically running into others if they are in their way. Not everyone is like that but there are enough and that is maybe why Disney is taking steps.
So Disney is going to ban big strollers but continue to let butt cheeks hang out of shorts ,dry humping in line, shirts with profanity and dudes dressed as princesses working at bippity boppity boytique…that’s why thier stock is down so low it corresponds with thier agenda.
Disney is no longer the happiest place on earth and these comments showing The Ivanka attitudes prove it. Children in strollers are banned yet they rent them? Electric HOG mobile that do 5mph with a 400 pounder ( who would benefit the most to walk) are still allowed? I’m from Fl and gave up getting an annual pass due to the cow riders hitting me it had nothing to do with them raising prices but that’d I’d not help
My son was walking without a stroller the first time he went and he was 3 1/2, but he is very hyper. He has severe a.d.h.d. and also has autism. He never cried about walking and loved walking and holding his hand. We also stayed only until after lunch then we would go back to the hotel for a break and go back just before dinner time. I can see not allowing huge wagons due to parking and congestion issues, but that was my son. I know most kids don’t have the stamina to walk all of that time. They definitely can’t take strollers away, but the wagons are a bit to large during busy times.
Just visited Disneyland Paris last month (avoided the strikes thankfully). Nary a wagon in sight. Very few strollers. And not surprisingly, no wheelchairs and only one ECV. Also not surprisingly, no morbidly obese people and very few grossly overweight people. No service animals, no emotional support animals, no pets. I wonder why Europeans can visit parks without these accessories but USA cannot?
Let’s face it folks Disney has been going down hill for many years now. We used to go when I was a kid and it was to celebrate being a kid which is what Walt wanted. How it turned into the political platform, sexual preference day bandwagon from that is beyond me! But… They are about the money and “only” the money! Open your eyes folks, they don’t want strollers because not only eill they now implement their own strollers for you to “RENT” and claim it’s because they’re the right dimensions lol, but they don’t want you having anything you can store your stuff on so you’re forced to get a locker! Hmmm…. Seems like the “crappiest place on earth” wants to force a lot of things on us! All in the name of $$
My husband and I are always telling young people about the “Rule og 6”. A gentleman on the bus used this when someone asked what age is too young for Disney. If thryre younger than 6, they won’t remember it. If they’re younger than 6, they have meltdownl. No one has a good time…the poor child, the parents and the other guests.
I get it, strollers can be bulky and the wagons have gained more popularity HOWEVER, I don’t agree with everyone trying to get strollers banned at a certain age. My son just turned 6 and we are magic key holders. We go as often as we can to get our moneys worth and I take his stroller. Why? Because I’d rather lug it around than have melt downs because he’s tired. He loves the parks just as much as I do but his legs take twice as many steps as mine do so it can definitely add up if we do a full day. Since my husband doesn’t have a pass (he hates the crowds) there’s no way I’d be able to carry him. When we stay late, he’ll usually fall asleep on the walk out of the park and while we wait for the tram. He’ll wake up, get in the tram, fall back asleep, wake up to get back off until we get to the car and he falls right back to sleep. If they were to place more restrictions on strollers, they’d be making a huge mistake.
I think if the child is past the crawling stage should be fine walking on there own two feet. that’s what good strong legs are for. They should not be babied or spoiled. They do it just fine running all over the house for hours without being strolled around And to have the poor child have to look at other kids there age walking. how does it make that child feel When the child is in a stroller too small to ride lol if the child needs a break from walking around. Take a brake. Go get a soda and put sugar into to the child’s body. And he /she will be ready and fueled up to go walking aka running to the next destination. When it’s time to leave and you see your child is getting tired 😩 crabby then it’s that time to give your child the last ride of the day a piggy back ride out of the park and to the car with a few breaks in between distance form the park to the car . Team effort. 💪🤝. Then by the time you hit the road. They will be dreaming in your back seat to be ready to run around the house the next day
Comments for Disney Parks Announce Stroller Ban Effective Immediately
lorraine
I have been seeing more and more of these wagon , some of which are HUGE and have fancy sides and covers over them, Its totally rediculous unless you have a child that has dissabilities. Likewise there should be an age limit on children in strollers , I have seen kids way to big for them and they drag their feet on t he ground or have their knees almost in their face. . My kids were all walking there at age 4, and I had 4 yr old twin boys and a 5 1/2 yr old son….I had no problem with them taking off Like I said, children with dissabilities are a different story and should be allowed in strollers.
Carol
I totally agree with you we go to the parks a lot cause we are local I see a lot of those wagons also!!!!
Dee
Of course you’d agree Karen
Kay
Stop using “Karen” to insult women over their behavior? Stop name shaming! I hope the new trend is to call every bowel moment a Dee.
Heather
Typical Karen response.
Laurie
I agree typical KAREN response
Rhonda
So you’ve just told her to stop name shaming while you just did the very same thing! Unbelievable that you think it’s ok for you!
Marilyn
Lmao! Seriously! And “Karen” users think they’re hysteric! It’s as outdated as BYE FELECIA! Now if you’ll excuse me…. I must go drop a Dee!
Ana
😂😂 omg i love your response
Stistiffler
Is that a number one and a Dee or just a Dee?
mkrow yereGrG
LOL I agree with Kay, too many wagons. You are not a Karen. The women pushing said wagons are Karens100 percent of the time . Dee’s Nutz!
Micheala
This has got to be the most fun I’ve had in a conversation like this in years. You guys are too funny! BTW, anybody that wants to drop a Micheala sure can!
Ezra
Found the Karen
Aimee
I don’t care how old or how big the kid in the stroller is as long as it’s a stroller. The wagons are obnoxious and should be banned.
Lisa O.
We had our 6 year old grandson in a stroller off and on each day last month. My husband and I were talking about getting a stronger one for next Summer. Don’t like, keep walking by, it doesn’t hurt you to just keep walking by and mind your own business right?? It helped my grandson last open to close when he needed the breaks and it was great for storing things that we didn’t put in our locker.
Barbara
Strollers should be a necessity. They cause way too much clutter and flow problems. Plenty of times for breaks in line, on rudes and just to sit.
Manny
Wagons are crazy and a stroller is cool. But can you imagine what Disney would be like with all those excited children free. It would be “uprise of the offspring” quickly for some people.
Me
Dammit Karen stop
Mickey
I think it’s really funny you leftist d-bags are referring to someone
as a karen that is sick of dealing with giant strollers. No, I’m afraid it’s the other way around. Entitled parents that believe everyone should bow down to them and their family is the most important family at Disney. If your kid can’t walk, they are to young. I took my 2yr old and she kept up just fine. Then again, we didn’t breast feed until 5 years old either.
Carla
You really have nothing better to do than insult someone who do not know? Get a life!
NanaNana Patsy
Ok
Kayren take a chill pill. Most of these women are just too damn lazy to be chasing after their kids that’s the problem and having to be real parents. Walk with your kid like the rest of us did. To many freaking silver spoon princesses today!!! Grow up already!!!!
Angel
Your opinion is your opinion you don’t have to be a”Karen” to have an opinion and just because you disagree with an opinion doesn’t make you a “K aren”. Starting a argument by calling someone a “Karen” makes you a”Karen”. No response necessary considering I probably couldn’t find this website again if I tried.
Karin
LOVE!! 🙂
PatPat
Lol, that comment makes you a karen.it only offends who it fits
Carla
You really have nothing better to do than insult someone who do not know? Get a life!
Charles
I agree we who have children with special needs don’t deserve to be shamed at the deserve about the same respect as anyone with our a disability I will never take my son or daughter to Disneyland especially with kids cutting in line over the barriers
I Dare You
So you know they’re just going to make families with small children rent a stroller once they get in the park, driving up the cost of their visit, right?
Sidenote: We all know what “Karen” means in today’s vernacular. Just like “Barbecue Becky”, its not going away. If people don’t want to be referred to as a “Karen” they shouldn’t act like one. You might want to let this one go before “Kay” becomes synonymous with “crybaby hater”. That goes for the rest of you hating crybabies as well. You know who you are.
Rachelle
People need to stop name calling . You all sound like a bunch of grade schoolers . Who cares if people use strollers mind ur business.
Twosexesonly
What a nasty Karen you must be!!!!

I think they should be able to use those wagons!!

You’re definitely a Karen

So you’ve just told her to stop name shaming while you just did the very same thing! Unbelievable that you think it’s ok for you!
Kid Ord
I agree as my sister in laws name is Karen & she the complete opposite of the connotation. Past time to stop this. Find a Term not a name!

It is a lie you all know no kid is walking all day without screaming and yelling how tired they are. It’s just a person wanting to stir up the board.
Rebekah
OMG CAROL!!!
NOT THE WAGONS 😱🙄🙄
Get over yourself

I love your reply, Rebekah !!!!
Irb
I gotta take a Dee..

She really is a ” Karen “
Sharon
You’re nasty Karen!

I don’t see how it is anybody else’s business what type of stroller someone has or the age of the child in it!
Donna
😡
Jake
How to tell the world you’re a mom with one of those big-ass wagons and lazy kids, without actually saying it.
Karen
You are getting off the point. If a family has a 6 month old child they should be able to use their stroller.
Micheala
Dee, I’m with you all the way!
Why not make 4 year olds walk all over a Disney Park? Hey Dee, do you think Karen has actually been to a park and walked it herself or paid for anything in one? I don’t know about you, but I sure want my kids to enjoy all of that! Oh, and they did, every time and we used a stroller!
Billie
Unecessary
Billie Hanson

Shay
I still use a stroller and my kid is 6. She doesn’t sit in it the entire Day, but when she needs it, I have it. Also, I really could care less what anyone else thinks about it. I also use my stroller to carry a cooler and my shopping bags! It saves my back 😀
Marie
Exactly
April
I have an almost 2yr old with severe sensitive and fair skin and the wagon is the only thing that covers her fully from the sun. Regular strollers still leave the legs uncovered and open to sun exposure. If I can’t take my wagon, we won’t spend our money there period.
Peggy
Good for you, for standing up for yourself. It’s NOBODY’S business who uses a stroller, how old the child sitting in it is, or what you put in it… I’m so sick of NOSEY people
Alice
This is in China-not USA. No need for discord and unkindness
GeekyGrandma
My grandkids weren’t little when we went to Disneyland last year but, I wish I’d brought my umbrella stroller. It can roll a heavy backpacks and drinks. We all had to take turns lugging the heavy backpack and would have been a nice extra seat for grandma. 🙁
DisNO-mom
Dee, You are “probably” one of those “failure to launch” mom’s.
So you call the lady a “Karen” because she has a different opinion than you
A.H.
What a failure to launch mom? I never heard that one before.
E
One can have their opinion just don’t force it on the rest of us. You need a hobby Disno mom.

Alma
Such a ridiculous statement. It’s a wagon for kids. Get over it or stay home.
Laurie
You people are ridiculous if you hate kids that much stay your ass home.Disney is geared for kids so get over it and you winning about your acting like a kid yourself
Tiff
You truly are a hero and an inspiration to parents everywhere…or you’re full of it…
PAC
How wonderful for you that your children didn’t get tired walking through Disney at age 4. Not all kids hit the same milestones at the same time even without a Disability. And not all parents can pick up a tired 3 or 4 year old. Now would you know is that child has a disability or not? Not all disabilities in parent or child are visible.
Angel
I agree there
Chaute
So your baby need to stay at home for a good rest and no more long-distance & heavy walking trip to go^^ Disney is too difficulty to you and your baby so no need to go
Mike C
PAC very well said, don’t know if Karen or anyone knew that. Some 4 year olds are built like a Dee house.
Erin
Yessss!!!!!
Otis
A 3-4 year old is too young to care about Disney.. wasting your money
Marsha
They wont even remember it. I took my boys when they were 8 and 11 and the youngest doesn’t remember a lot of it.
Jay
That is completely un true.
Ellie
This was my thoughts exactly ! Some kids and adults don’t get adequate amount of sleep at night and do need a nap! And these kids but definitely benefit in these wagons. It’s not like they have a nursery at the Disney park where the child can go into a building and take a nap on a bed. 😆 Can’t you just see it now, at each land at Disney world a “sleep station”? Because who wants to go back to the hotel just for a nap when there’s a Sleep station?? I should get paid for this idea! It’s going to make big money!
Marsha
If a child needs a nap then maybe they shouldn’t be there. How can you take a good nap in a stroller?
Pol
Absolutely. I am 76 and can’t carry my 4 year old grand daughter. THE IDEA that when I take her to Disney I have to pray she doesn’t get tired, ….no strollers is ridiculous.
Peggy
So very well said PAC.. these ignorant crybabies, over children being in strollers or wagons, need to get a grip.
Old Lady 72
Strollers or wagons should then be left in specific areas, say one area per “land” for those who wish to go on rides . Plus one adult per 2 children under 18, who MUST remain with parent at all times. Parent doesn’t want to go on a ride, child can’t.
Nicole
They are not even thinking about parents with multiples. I have a set of twins and one on the way. Which I will be purchasing a wagon. I’m not trying to push two strollers.
Nan
Thanks for your comment PAC. We didn’t know why one of our sons wanted to be carried or ride so much in his stroller when his siblings walked more at amusement parks at his age. We didn’t find out he had a mild neuro-muscular disability until he was 6 years old.Even then it took a year to diagnose because it was so mild. I agree you cannot always see or know what the situation is and people should mind their own business. If your child can walk great, but don’t judge others when you have no idea what their personal situation is.
Gman
Kay, I don’t like the use of Karen or Dee. I have a neice Karen and my wife Dee.
Even though I ‘m aware of the meaning.. I’d prefer another term be used..
And I had better not give my suggestion.
Cieara
Really you must need a trophy. But I’m gonna guarantee you weren’t the only adult on that trip. As a single mother I can tell you it’s impossible to have that age kids alone in the parks without a stroller. We would have never been able to make it. That doesn’t mean my just turn five year old didn’t walk most of the days but at nite time when they were tired I couldn’t have carried that many kids alone and their things. Keep your mom of the year attitude to yourself. We’re all just doing what we can as a mother for our children
Becca
You couldnt have said it better!! As a single mom and alone at the parks w my daughter when she got tired she just hopped in her stroller and fell asleep. I couldnt tell you how many people on that ramp yo get the monorail carrying the k.o.’ d tired child would look at me and say “omg i wish i would have brought the stroller my back and feet are killing me!”

It’s not always on the wife u don’t know the situation so don’t even say anything mean like that
Sheila
Wow, for a site about a happy place, this comment section is hideous.
Jeff
You have no idea what that si gle mom has been through to be at that point. You should try much harder to make sure your mind is in gear before mouth in motion. What is she lost her significant other due to line of duty or cancer loss? Let that sink in.
PAD
Not all single moms made a choice, my dad died before I was born. She raised 4 of us.
Kt
If you were a better person Rt, you wouldn’t be a douchebag
Just Stfu
Didn’t know that not being a good wife had anything to do with being a single mom when you have non-responsibility taking men out here in the world
Linda
That is beyond rude. How do you know if her partner didn’t die? That does happen. People like you are just worthless.
Matt Chambers
Now, now, nobody’s worthless. They can always be used as a bad example!
Di
Did you ask if the other parent died. Brains are us. You people that are so arrogant.
Dennis
Maybe just maybe if they are too tito walk, maybe leave instead of having a grumpy walking around. I know it cost a pretty penny to go there now, but maybe it’s something to think about. There are other people there also paying another of money too. Maybe you could think of them.
Jay
Strollers do not effect people who dont have kids or just dont use them. Whats next? Banning scooters and wheelchairs? You sound silly.
Ecb
It is most definitely NOT impossible. I’m a single mom and we had season passes for 12 years.. I took my niece when she was young like that… then my daughter. We would bring a small backpack with snacks and sandwiches and they would walk.. no problem. When they got tired we would go to the tiki room and take a break. We also did Disney World when my daughter was 5.. no stroller.. no problem. They just get in the way. Ridiculous. Our rule.. ” if YOU bring it.. YOU cary it!” They learned quick to leave stuff at home or in the car. It really limited the crap we had to lug around. Now.. my daughter is 14. We travel light and often. It’s all about what you will put up with as a parent and how far their tantrums get them.
Debbie
They were banned before Covid.
Faye
We boycott everything Disney so who cares??
Tom J
POS
Gigi
If you boycott everything Disney, why are you commenting?
Alice
I have this problem at our zoo with parents pulling wagons. I wouldn’t have minded so much if the parents in charge of the wagon watches out for the people crammed in the tight space around them. I nearly tripped over this one guy wagon many times. If I hadn’t been watching I could have got seriously hurt.
The Real Deal Heel
Good to hear you didnt trip Because You Were Paying Attention…. Thats The Key “Pay Attention” its not the parents fault most people are so self involved that they dont notice a large object near them and trip over it.
Amy
Good to hear your kids were walking at those ages, but there are a lot of undiagnosed kids with disabilities out there that don’t start walking until much older. Perhaps those kids are just undiagnosed. Also why does it bother you that parents bring fancy strollers for kids older then the age you listed? Kids and adults get tired too.
Shannon
It’s really not that serious. I think it helps the parents to keep up with everything and helps prevent child abduction and children from wandering off. Pervert patrol these places and I feel having kids in strollers and wagons helps prevent that crap! 🤷♀️
Dee
Right
Tom J
Wouldn’t be any issue if everyone was armed, like God and our Fore Fathers intended it to be
Lindsey P
Right, like we need multiple people with guns going off in a crowded them park
Threresa
I didn’t take a child to disney til he was 8 and he had a disability that wasn’t recognized yet. Personally 4 is too young. Wait til they age some.
Dawn
Who are you to tell parents what kind of stroller/wagon they can use? If you don’t like them, don’t use them. Your opinions are YOUR opinions and if I had a young child and I wanted to use the wagon while in an amusement park, then your opinion doesn’t matter to me. They didn’t use your money to buy it and they are NOT making you use one for your child, so mind your own business.
Tom J
And your opinion is just that, your opinion. So shut your pie hole too.
Bill
I don’t think it’s the wagon itself. From what I’ve seen while in Disney which is often, is the lack of consideration that wagon, stroller, motorized scooter peoplehave towards others. It is a problem that has been growing for years. I love kids but to drag a bus around Disney is a little much.
Gary
Yes please we don’t care about your opinions
Belinda Juarez
Well good for your kids. If you like torturing your back to back kids yay for you. Normal Lil kids get tired and need a nap sometimes. I concur about the big kids in strollers but NONE of that is your business. Geez y’all worried about other people. MIND YOUR BUSINESS. It gonna suck if they take that away AGAIN. Ridiculous and shameful Disney us getting
Kathy
We just went to Disney last week and we were NOT
allowed to take our wagon into the park. We had to rent two strollers.
Nani
Some children don’t need disabilities for their parent to bring a stroller along in case they get tired, little children get exhausted walking around a park all day. Stop being ignorant. And for a park that’s supposed to be inclusive this is EXTREMELY disgusting.
Tony
I would like to say first off , learn to spell, are you sure you don’t have a disability yourself, second kids get tired , if your kids have super strength well great , but a 2 or 3 even a 4 year old in Disney parks is going to get tired , so are parents going to carry their kids all around the park because you think having a stroller is bad parenting , give .e a break lady , you need your head examined , stay out of other parents business and mind your own
Tom J
Dee has the disability Tony so….
Dee
*disabilities* there, fixed it for you😂
Nitza
Like that’s so true… Just let them run. I hate to see that your kids are almost a teenager still in a stroller…😳😳
Candi
Why is it bothering U what other ppl are doing with their kids? If they dont want to carry their kid most or any of the time U have the option of using Ur stroller or wagon. Ppl dont want to carry kids, souvenirs, bags of supplies, food etc because their stroller or wagon for their convenience bothers U. Just keep on walking with Ur kids and go about Ur day easy🤷♀️. Talking about it should only be for the disabled is crazy, as big as Disney world is for a kid to walk the whole time is outrageous 🙄🙄
K.P
Please! You sound so condescending. Do you know there are disabilities that are NOT visible to the naked eye? Also, what sane parent wouldn’t want their 3-4-5 & yes 6yo TODDLERS to rest at points throughout the hot long activity filled day??? Resting in strollers is a great way for some children to eat, sleep, take a time out & regroup with sight seeing… the question is, why are you making your 4yo walk for hours & hours. I bet that’s the child who’s screaming, hollaring, not listening & is making a parent ready to call it a day… How about the parents who have disabilities themselves & rely on their child’s wagon or stroller to carry their bags, belongings too…
K
Exactly, people should be able to take care of they’re needs they’re way. Waggons and strollers are needed by parents, then use them. Disney makes it very clear how little they care about kids. And the RIDICULOUS amount of money they charge, hell to the no your telling me i have to carry my child when i literally cant or put them in danger of getting lost or separated. Let parents make the choices themselves about they’re kids. I will never understand how some people’s Brians work. And people can have opinions, but not decide what a parent needs for they’re own child.
AutMom
They’re not saying you can’t have a reasonable size stroller. What people are tired of is the giant wagons that up much more space than other carriers.
Liz
A 6 year old is NOT toddler.
Dolly
Thank u I am a mom with a disability and I plan on taking my child to Disneyland someday
Ellen
My husband and I are always telling young people about the “Rule og 6”. A gentleman on the bus used this when someone asked what age is too young for Disney. If thryre younger than 6, they won’t remember it. If they’re younger than 6, they have meltdownl. No one has a good time…the poor child, the parents and the other guests.
Jami
I don’t agree with any of those
Knova
Good for you….glad you’re one of those self proclaimed perfect parent with super human children….
But let’s break down reality. I would rather a child be happy and safe in a stroller or wagon. I would rather see them able to enjoy the park than being hot, tired, and cranky.
We all know a tired and cranky little is going to cry and be miserable and toss out a few inconsolable fits at ear piercing octaves for all to enjoy.
I opt for strollers and or wagons over miserable screaming children and frazzled and stressed parents.
How about we just let parents decide on what’s best for the children they know better than anyone. I am pretty sure parents know the limits of their littles better than anyone. Stroller or Wagon or none….it’s a parent’s choice how to enjoy their vacation the best way for them and their family.
Esther
I agree! And worse of they are sitting in stroller on a device!!
Sandra
We don’t care about your kids all kids are different. 🙄🙄🙄my kids are 4 are 6 and need a stroller or wagon they cannot walk long hours and yes my son has a Autism and ADHD but yeah. Just cause your kids don’t mean shid. Get yourself one instead of trash talking another parent and their kids.
Peggy
Why does it bug you so much, if SOMEONE ELSE’S child is in a stroller or wagon ?? I’d say that’s none of your business. That’s half your problem, you mind everyone else’s business too much.
Keep your nose in your own lane
ManchildOnly1
KAREN KAREN KAREN… picking on strollers and Wagons, should be ashamed, good for you to have a 4 yr old that can run 3 hours straight and not get tired. Mine throw a tantrum get tired and need to sleep after 20 mins max. I’m not carrying them for 3 or 4 hours. The very definition of a “KAREN.” Just nitpick, micro manage and pushing your ideology in people’s fave without thinking about how I.R.L. really works.
Zoe
Just because your 1/2 yr can walk doesn’t mean anything and what if one of your children got lost how would you feel you would be like I should have let some sit in a stroller we have 5 kids in our family 4 under the age of 6 and it would suck if you had to make sure they all stay together because they are kids who just want to run around I think with that age limit idea is fine for 5 and under but making a 1/2 yr walk that is outrageous
katie
there should not be an age limit. children with disabilities need strollers. some of of them are risk for running and a special needs stroller is expensive. just because your kids could walk doesn’t mean other kids can. you don’t know what the child might have going on. think before you judge a parent on the stroller
Shannon
I think people like you should mind your own business. How does someone with a wagon stroller effect you? Oh no, better yet, it’s not the wagon stroller that effects you, it’s the fact they have sides and a canopy? Jealous? Have you not seen rules? These strollers ARE banned UNLESS it’s a child with disabilities. So, there ya go judgmental Jenny! All the strollers you all see in the park, that are wagons, are children with disabilities! Then let’s address putting an age limit on who can ride in a stroller? Lol, that’s again, NONE of your business! It’s NOT effecting you if someone’s 6 year old is in a stroller! They look fully healthy, so they should walk? Again, not that it’s ANY of your business ess, but their are disabilities you can not see, and perhaps some of ththos”bigger kids” in strollers, suffer from one.
I feel like most of this is jealousy that nobody will push us “big kids” in strollers, so we act like kids not minding our own business.
I feel like you’re also the type to see me in a scooter, then walk to the ride, and talk crap because I’m just lazy using a scooter, and not disabled.
Not all disabilities are visibly there to outsiders.
But, if I go ahead and stand in line then pass out onto a group of people, over and over again, I guess it would be Visible. Smh
You say when your children were walking, good for you. Was that 40 years ago when there was less to do, less hours, less people, less electronics, less reservations and waiting? If not, then I feel bad for the 4 year old you made walk brisk with the adults to beagle to do all there is to do in the parks. Some people have a once in a lifetime vacation, and the stroller makes it easier to maneuver with small children.
Man, “mind your own biscuits and life would be gravy”
Barb
Just because you force your poor children to walk the entire time through such a large park does not mean every parent should be just as mean. Parents don’t only put their children in strollers and these new wagons you spoke of just because they are concerned about them walking off but also because they want to allow them to get out of the sun and rest. Who cares if they drag their feet or their knees touch their face. How are those things your problem??? There is no way I’m going to force my young children to walk for 8 plus hours through a theme park without a stroller for them to rest in every so often. Maybe I’ll go get one of those big fancy wagons you mentioned. Parents have the right to push their you children through the park in strollers so please stop trying to take that right away from us just because you don’t.
Bob
Good for you and your kids. Would you like a medal or trophy for them?
Emmi
Using 5 1/2 and 4 year old children as an example of being too tall for strollers is a really bad example as there are no children that age too tall for the strollers on the market today. Even a child at 4-5 1/2 that’s in the 100th percentile for height, meaning they’re taller than 100% of kids their age, would still fit comfortably in any stroller on the market today. Now the 8-10 year old I’ve seen in the strollers are the ones dragging their feet on the ground, but I also don’t know the situation, and won’t spend my time or vacation getting upset about kids I likely won’t see ever again and that I don’t know their personal history as to why they’re in the stroller.
Richard Lauber
Well what I would like to know is what what happens if you have 6month old or 1 yr old are you supposed to make them walk or carry rhem all day !! This should be done case by case !! Not just a complete ban !!! Not only that who can afford to go to Disney the prices keep going up!! I priced a trip for my wife 14 year old son and myself it was close to 2 grand sorry Disney I have better things to spend 2 grand on !!
Jay
Just so you know wagons ARE banned unless a child in the party has a disability. So your talking crap about the wagons you see but they DO have a disabled child. Just because you cant tell by looking at the child doesnt mean they are not disabled shame on you for judging. Also every child is different not all can go all day walking around the parks like yours. And why would you subject small children to like 20 miles of walking? Many guests come from across the country and stay in the parks open to close to get there moneys worth because its so expensive. And who cares if a child has his knees close to his face in a stroller? Or dangles their feet from them? Why is that any of your business? YOUR kids are your business not everyone elses. The AUDACITY of some people I swear.
Lisa
You don’t always know by looking at them, how old the child is or why they need to be in a stroller. Some disabilities are invisible and that stroller is their safeplace and a lifeline. Don’t judge.
Alma
It’s a wagon for kids, why do we care at what age you stopped using your stroller. Get over it or stay home.
Amanda
I agreed with the wagons but the strollers? I have a 3 year old and 9 month old and I have Scoliosis. What should I do? Disney continues to cut their legs off. Having pedos as employees and making horrible movies and live actions.
Jen
Just please keep in mind not all disabilities are visible. My 6-year-old daughter has a heart condition, so we still use a stroller for her. I realize this might look ridiculous to some, but there is a reason for it.
Neterine
Lazy parents, and lazy kids. Don’t come if they cant walk! It’s a theme park. Not a day care!
Thomas
Are you serious? Does anyone watch over you at the buffet line and limits your portions? Mind ur own business, u should try it sometime.
Adam
You cant demand to know if a child is handicapped and ask for proof! They dont have any effect on you. And its not your place or disneys to mandate restrictions
Kyo
Absolutely, kids w/physical disabilities should be allowed otherwise para/quadraplegics, spina bifida, palsy, etc. kids will never know the joys of Disney which Cannot happen in this day & time and if not the world won’t be small after all.
Lori
For years people have survived with a simple stroller, if needed, I know we did. In this world of parents catering to kids every whim they now bring these things and everything but the kitchen sink. Kids never walk, including older kids. Parents… be a parent!
Jessica
HECK YES!!!!!!! I love this ! So tired of these entitled parents running me over.
Knova
Really….you go to a place known for being the Happiest place on earth. A place that caters to children and families from all over and you think that all those families and people should think just like you? Because in your opinion you know what’s best for all those families? That to me sounds more entitled than a parent doing what they feel is best for their child to be able to enjoy a vacation that costs a pretty good penny now a days. I bet you would be the one to complain about a screaming,tired over stimulated child in a park ruining your vacation because you don’t want a parent to use a stroller…. 😂
Tony
Kids get tired and guess wha I feel very sorry for your kids
Ginney
People please if you don’t like kids and are going to complain about strollers then stay home..next lets stop a group of adults that 5 or 6 of them all rented the motorized scooter. There are more issues with them going in the park like a parade. I can see if you have a disability just like ones complaining about kids strollers. What it comes down to dont ruin your vacation as to what other people are doing do what is right for you and go enjoy your vacation..
I do say should just be strollers NOT the wagons. But have to have understanding if a family has triplets and their stroller is longer.
Life is to short to keep complaining about families and strollers. They have to put them in stroller parking areas for rides . Now if you want to really complain about something lets talk about the people the push in at last minute for a spot for the parade..crowd families that have been waiting sitting so they had a spot for the parade and people come last minute and push right in…
Emmi
Or let’s complain about the family of 15 cutting the line to catch up to the one person they had waiting for awhile. That one is more annoying than any stroller ever will be.
Mary
Who cares how old the kids are- it’s none of your business! I don’t care if their 10 year old is in it or if no children just purchases! They paid for their tickets just like you!
Cynthia Jones
Well said!
Frustrated Rule Follower
Now if Disney would fix how 1 member of a family holds a place in line for 12!!!, while the rest of just got bumped yet AGAIN, I’d be really happy.
Annoyed Disney allstar
Yes! 1000%
Tricia
I agree! If everyone doesn’t enter the line at the same time they can wait like everyone else has too!
Eugenia G Fleisher
They will just have to carry all their paraphernalia in backpacks like the rest of us.
Paul W
I actually really miss the pre-covid days when you could ship your purchases back to your resort. And believe me, on occasion when I bought things early in the day using this method, it was easy to forget exactly what I’d gotten by the time I got back to the hotel tired from the day. Getting the call the next day to come pick up your packsge from the resoer gift shop and opening it in the room really was like a little extra shot of magic.
Victoria
Yes! this! When I was a kid you could have it delivered for free right to your actual room and they would have it on your beds when you returned from the parks. It literally was like an extra shot of magic. They’d even set the stuffed animals up on the beds. So cute and personal, but I’m sure impossible to keep up with. But just having it go back to the resort for pickup alone really was a godsend
Deborah
I miss that too! Worth the money to go! We’ve been 25 times in 25 years. Renewed our vows there.
Mandy
Omg that was funny
Batgrl
This whole thread is a sad state. As adults we should be loving and caring. It really shows how people think only their voice should be the rule. Children need to rest. I used strollers for my son. And my Dad used a scooter because he had 2 bad knees and a heart condition. But we always considered others. We stayed out of the way and made sure we looked at the day realistically. I knew the we had to be realistic about how the day would pan out. We used to go to Disney every few years but won’t go any more. The company that exists now is not the one Walt created. The last thing I will say is be kind be kind be kind!
Deborah
Perfect answer. But we still go and be that “kind” person. Set that example.
Gary
I can see banning the wagons and such but never the 1 or 2 child regular stroller the parents need them. If they have more stuff the backpack idea is great.
Sallie Lee
If you carry a backpack, filled or not, it’s real hard to cart a worm out child.
Sharon
Simple umbrella stroller would be sufficient, not a monstrosity of a stroller
Jeffrey
Wagons are not permitted unless needed for medical use. I worked park entry at magic kingdom so if you see a wagon inside the park it should have a blue strap on it. If it doesn’t alert a cast member
Do
I hope somebody does not pull off the blue strap. What a place to be if they let you in with it and you have someone trying to cause problems. Run to a staff member, really?
Zard
This is not new news 🤨
Sallie Lee
First, I agree with banning the wagons. Please realize that little ones (up to about 5 yo) can’t keep up with the adults, and end up being carried. This is not a good situation. We kept our girls in strollers for our convenience til they were almost 5.
Val
Full support …yes
Children in the strollers are their business.. whatever works
Teddy Gingerich
I do wish DL would enact really strict rules about stroller size. AND be firm about wagons. I’ve seen people with wagons with the “medical exemption” tag whose kids are running all over the place; the wagon is to hold their stuff. They could make it easier on families by (I’ve made this suggestion a million times) putting in more lockers and reducing the fee to $1/day. Disney doesn’t need the revenue from lockers; they DO need to make it easier for people to navigate the parks. I’m tired of seeing parking lot sized stroller parking full of SUV sized strollers, and people carrying all their worldly goods with them. Cheap lockers would make it possible to put jackets, purchases and extra stuff away. This would also reduce theft from strollers (although who leaves stuff on a stroller?).
Tracy
I thought they banned these several years ago?
Lucille Mislivets
Parents need to behave responsibily also. Parents RUNNING out of the parks is not necessary. Need to catch a bus…..leave the parks earlier. I was bumped/pushed by a parent rushing with a stroller. As a result, I suffered an injury (fell face first) and paramedics had to be called. Either the person didn’t notice or just didn’t care.
Who, me?
I have also seen parents pushing the double stroller’s through crowds like a snowplow, not actually hitting anyone of course, but in a very aggressive and bullish manner.
Victoria
We tracked that we walked an average of 8-11 miles a day at Disney World, so yeah I’d say making a 4year old, who has to take 3-4 times more steps than you per adult step, walk that 3-4 DAYS in a row is borderline child abuse. Just No. I regretted not letting my 7year old have a stroller halfway through day 2. :/
Mom37
Wow these comments sure are judgemental without knowing people’s situations. My family uses a wagon stroller for our kids ages 2, 7, 8 and 9. We are not local, so when we go to Disney we stay for 3-5 days at the parks. We have kids with dietary problems, one kid with undersized feet that get sore very easily, one kid with ODD, and of course the 2 year old who still needs a diaper bag. Do we enjoy pushing around a heavy wagon with all sorts of crap in it? Absolutely not. But we have a large family, doing a long trip that we saved up for years for. We will be staying from open to close because we can’t afford to stay on-site at the resort. So, sorry, but I promise that we hate these stupid wagons even more than you do!
Hysterically laughs
Lmao oversized feet?!? For real?!? My god thats hysterical 🤣 dietary issues?! What does that have to do with an oversized unnecessary wagon? And for those of you saying “well some of us have multiples of children” ummmm stop having litters you cant manage then! Its not others responsibility to make way for a family and their hurd of kids! People and children have survived for 50+ years with their children walking Disneyland and Disney world. Stop with all your BS excuses as to why your child and family should be more entitled. “Oversized feet” 🤣🤣🤣 I cant get past that one without laughing hysterically
tine
It was undersized feet…meaning her child has teeny tiny feet. Not much to laugh at when this child has a harder time walking 8-11 miles. You sound unnecessarily cruel without an ounce of empathy. Let’s hope you don’t have children from the sound of your post.
Kids get tired after a long day. Maybe the wagon is their answer to having to having to wear a sweaty backpack in the Florida heat, and the wagon doesn’t topple over like an umbrella stroller.
Can’t we go back to No Judgment? You do you? Disney World used to be a Happy Place. Now all everyone does is complain and fight. Don’t worry about anyone else – go make memories with your family!!
Heart broken
Disney was owned by family at one time. NOW, it is corporate. Family values are gone. Check out the sting they did on employees, molesters. Heart broken.
Parent
🤭🤣🤣🤣🤣
Reader
Wow. I’m laughing hysterically at you. Learn to read. She said undersized feet. Remember, karma is a b1+ch if you are.
Sue
What about these people who do t know how to maneuver those electric scooters and bump into people or try to go racing Thur the park
Kim
Now if they would ban the over weight too lazy to walk adults on the power scooters that would be great!! Most of them rent one and have never operated one and have no problem running you over!! Even my husband’s service dog has been hit!!
Veronique Spence
Y’all can have it! We don’t do Disney anymore in the first place! Secondly, all it is is another ploy for people to spend more money, specifically for those rental strollers. Get your act together with all these rumors of child molesters and child grooming movies and content. Do better, Disney!
Nan
If you want to complain, complain about the price of admission. When it comes to kids in strollers mind your own business. We didn’t know until my son was 6 that he had a very mild neuromuscular issue and he rode for a long time as a young child before doctors could diagnose him. Don’t judge folks when you haven’t walked in their shoes on what is best for their family.
Sharon
There is no reason to have huge stroller. Most of the people who bring them in the park don’t even know how to navigate them, they are constantly hitting and running into people with them. Also, kids to big to be in stroller and some just use to put packages in, no kids.
Rick
Maybe start charging admission for one year old, and two year olds, who are coming in the park and have no real reason to be there other than the parents think that they are guilty to leave them alone at home or with a sitter or somewhere else. The one year-old is not having any fun and neither are the parents’ or the siblings who want to enjoy the park. The entire day is spent trying to figure out how to babysit the one year-old and two-year-old children and change their diapers and make sure they eat and make sure they’re not crying and it’s not too hot etc. No one is having any fun in the whole purpose of going there is to have a family experience, which is lost on everybody . And the only reason they bring them is because it’s free and of course they have to have a stroller to put them in because they can’t walk around themselves and it’s a babysitting deal. If you charged for it, that would illuminate most of those children from coming in the park and you wouldn’t have the stroller problem that you have.
Patrick
There should be an age limit to how young children should be anyway if they require a stroller then they’re to young to be at Disney and other then special needs kids the rest can walk
Cieara
As a single mother of 3 I had my just turn 4/5 in a double stroller and I had to lug it on and off buses and you know what thank god I did! We wouldn’t have been able to go had I not had the option to rent that. I couldn’t carry two toddlers at the end of the fireworks or Parade. I’m one person. I will never regret having that and if they take that away for moms or parents that need that it’s really not okay.
Lisa
Eh.. strollers whatever.. what I can’t stand is all the people claiming to need the disability passes. Why in the world does Disney not require a proof of disability from whatever state you are from in order to get these passes. We recently were at Disney in CA and waited 2 hours to be seen by a crew member for these (special passes) (which we had proof for) absolutely crazy that they do not require disabled proof… versus all the people claiming issues and then literally running from ride to ride then all of a sudden sitting in a wheelchair.. super frustrating for those who actually have issues to see it allowed to be taken advantage of.
Nancy
You know there’s this there’s that you hear everything about Disneyland they’re taking all the Bibles out of the Disneyland. It’s like Tanic the don’t want no strollers they don’t want this. They don’t want that you know what just close the park down because after a while ain’t nobody gonna be going and attending and taking their family there anymore.
Jessica
You guys know that not all disabilities are visible right? Someone can be able to walk and still need a wheelchair or ecv. Honestly, you all are rude.
Me
Yeah my daughter walked the whole park 4 days in a row at 2 and 4. My son however would have never made it at 4.5 and will still need a stroller next year at 5.5 if we go. How about letting each parent do what their child needs.
Jacqueline Romero
Well I spend 1200 on a stroller to carry me 3 grandchildren and they are 1, 3,and 5 and I can’t bring it in. I need to make SURE they are safe and keep together. So all you complaining must not care about the whereabouts of your small ones. STOP BEING KARENS AND DARRENS.
Carla
Why do people care about the type of strollers that people choose to have? Why not worry about your own crew that your traveling with?
Mary
Who cares how old the kids are- it’s none of your business! I don’t care if their 10 year old is in it or if no children just purchases! They paid for their tickets just like you!
Darlene
The Magic Kingdom is filled with the Stroller Beasts! This is what my daughter & I call them. It is so ridiculous sometimes to the number of these things that are moving thru the park.
Cinn
I Don’t Think They Should Ban The Strollers Of Course Not At Least Not 1-2.. Its A Family Theme Park, Only Children Will Need Them & They Rent Them There As Well They Make Profit Anyways But Wagons On The Other Hand I Can Probably See That Getting Banned But NOT STROLLERS !
Deborah
Perfect answer. But we still go and be that “kind” person. Set that example.

I keep hearing everyone complain about the strollers so what are parents supposed to do if they have 3 to 4 kids under the age of 2 or 3 make them walk a big park !!!! You all need to get real
Zack
Disney has become a total joke. Totally lost its Magic The strollers have become annoying over the years, but letting visitors just go wild , cursing, cutting lines giving in to the pressure, dirty parks and resort grounds etc etc . Universal HERE WE COME !
Yasmine
You must work for Universal…lol.

This world is going to hell in a handbasket. I cannot believe the amount of people on here whining about their child being tired or having disabilities. Victim mentality is strong. A majority of these people are probably just fat and can’t handle watching their kids properly so they strap their kids in a hummer sized monstrosity.
Probably on a motorized scooter wheelchair themselves because they have a “disability”…. I mean fat and lazy. No you don’t need an army tank of a stroller to watch your kids, or to keep them from getting abducted, or “pervert patrol.” Raise your kids right and they can walk a few steps. Perhaps actually raising them means not shoving a device in their hands every time they get ornery, who knew. Smh

Honestly it’s annoying having to navigate parks with those bulky obnoxious strollers/wagons. You parents expect everyone to care about your kids! Children die from school sh00tings you hear nothing in regards to banning guns but ban a stroller then the claws come out. Plain and simple your suburban sized strollers are hazards.
Liliana, Queen of Darkness
If your child is big enough where you don’t want to carry them in your arms, they don’t need a stroller. My parents had me walking everywhere when I was a child.
Yasmine
Most rational parents bring their children when they reach walking ages. Not at 5mo, 2 or 4 years old.
Linda
yas , you should do homework on what the park has to offer young children as they encourage younger children to be there. The Florida heat can get anyone but taking strollers away will be catastrophic.
Linda
there’s no way a disney park in Florida can start this. the heat is too much its wrong !!!
people pay so much to enjoy this theme park for their children. preschools don’t even let the kids out at certain times due to the heat yet disney expects families with small children to walk around all day or carry kids in this …has to be a joke. sooo many law suits are gonna start happening when kids and adults start having heat strokes. also all those with disabilities.this is terrible and inhumane makes me sick. why can’t they just make reasonable restrictions and actually enforce them. it’s not hard.my family and I won’t be going as we planned if this is in affect
Rico
Why are we complaining about strollers now? My son does not use them but I don’t care about if someone is using them. It is all about convenience. Just enjoy the park and stop complaining. Nevertheless, I would be more strict with the line policy. I don’t like having 12 individuals from the same group saying excuse me my grandma is inline waiting we have to get there.
Mary
These pansy parents crack me up.
Need a small, collapsible stroller? Great. Need a kiddie wagon so you can also drag around all your crap? No.
Wonder how all these entitled parents, raising entitled kids would feel if I bring my kiddie wagon to the movie theater in case Junior needs a nap? I wonder how they would feel if I brought a pack n play playpen on an airplane?
Let your children grow up, right after you grow up, parents.
Becky101
Wow. So many of you are arguing and commenting and yet clearly did not read the article. 1) the ban is on wagons basically not strollers.
2) the ban has already been in affect in the US resorts since 2019.
3) the article States the ban is now being put into affect at Shanghai Disney resort.
So how about you read the article before you comment and make ridiculous assumptions about what is being banned, claiming Disney is attacking parents, strollers or disabled children?
HB
A stroller and a huge wagon are 2 different things. My daughter is about to be 4 and I still use a stroller for her if we are out at a large place such as Disney. Little legs get tired and a stroller allows her to rest and even take a nap. There is nothing wrong with it. I would never tell someone else what they can or can not do. Everyone do what works for you and stay out of people’s business.
Ginger Healey
This ploy of banning strollers is just another way for Disney to make more money by renting strollers to families. Follow the money! DISNEY IS ALL ABOUT MAKING MONEY! That is the bottom line!
Rebekah
OMG CAROL!!!
NOT THE WAGONS 😱🙄🙄
Get over yourself

Seems like the only change at Disney in the last 50 years of me going to the Mouse House is the quality of the parents.
Their over all lack of consideration for others is off the wall. We would never considered bring a three wide stroller to the park, but these days everything is for, me forget everyone else.
We didn’t bring our kids to the park until they were able to make their own way and where old enough to appreciate the rides.
I’ve seen post saying couples with no kids should be bared form the park because they take up to muck room maybe we should bar kids younger than seven from the parks and lose all strollers.
T
Sorry I understand children get tired but a wagon isn’t needed. If your child is at a certain age like 8,9,10 you shouldn’t using strollers. This is why you plan your day accordingly to their ages. Go back to the hotel instead of pushing what you want to do over what the age of your child can do. I know how hard it is to go to a park with your children but use your brain. No one should have to worry about getting hit with a wagon.
Amanda
I don’t think anyone fully understands. Small strollers are fine, and even the double ones. My son has mobility issues, and we are annual passholders at Disney. Navigating around the huge strollers and wagons has caused issues several times, and more so this year. Blocking walkways and *ramps*, the one woman left hers blocking the companion rest room I use with our son while she went in the regular restroom, I have seen people flip out on cast members when they cant bring the large stroller in places or when they are asked to move the stroller blocking a path, some people will leave a stroller or wagon in one part of park all day and become enraged when it is moved by a cast member or when items go missing. The best was the woman who left her wagon and stroller in the service dog relief area, and got upset when it was moved. From what I was told was that it was a ban on large strollers and wagons. I think it’s a great idea I hope they are able to make it work.
Lana
I don’t care about the strollers nor wagons. I was taught that if something doesn’t pertain to me, to not worry about it. That has nothing to do with me and my experience there. People worry about the wrong things.
Laura
I think these wagons are great.
Especially when spending an entire day somewhere. You can keep your kid and all the stuff you need in it.
Makes life so much easier.
I’m a grandma. Took my 6 yr old granddaughter to Disney. I wish I had my wagon that day.
Mary
Wow I cannot believe how insensitive people are. Next they will call for a ban on people who use scooters to get around. People are just plain getting mean. Until you know what someone’s situation is. Stop and think before you open your pie hole. Disney is a big place with room for everyone.
Tom
Disney is a place for fun. Who ever said kids under 4 don’t remember the time they had there is Totally wrong. My 2 1/2 Grandaughter never forgets Woody & Jesse. You don’t need to bring the house but a stroller for then to rest when they are tired is a must. It’s also for the parents sanity
❤Disney
I didn’t take a child to disney til he was 8 and he had a disability that wasn’t recognized yet. Personally 4 is too young. Wait til they age some.
Moni
It’s Disney is it? Thought it was supposed to be a kid friendly park? Strollers or not… how are parents supposed to carry diaper bag and their kid .. some people have twins even triplets… Lawd make it make sense
Don't worry about it
What age are we talking because I’m not carrying none of my kids around when im at any huge area. I dont understand how strollers or wagons are that much of a problem when Disneyland has way othe big issue they need to resolve
Dee
My daughter has a non verbal 4 year old and a wagon is where he feels safest, his younger brother also rides with him. It’s more controlled than a stroller where they could not move about.
Candy
Always wanted at LEAST a stroller free day….
American minion
With this insurge of violence in America, they are probably thinking of safety for the parks visitors?
Mr
My opinion is as a parent you totally waste your time and money your energy by taking children. Children who just cannot even get on Any rides or their just way to sceard to interact to places like this because it’s over rated over crowded and not even worth it how is a magical place if all you see are red hot faces that are screaming and crying because they are not happy as a parent who use to work for disney I saw it every day it’s not a happy place it’s a huge headache it’s too
crazy hot everyone needs to know your children and know where you’re going basicly if your under 10 you waste your time your money and the stress of everyone just because they might have 1 or 2 rides doesn’t make it even better because that’s where everyone goes and the line is way to long and the waiting is crazy so I AGREE NO STROLLERS DISNEY is not for children under 10 your only going because you want to go
Ida
You cater to everyone else but not children?
Sure I agree that there are some kids way too big for strollers but a parent with a little one needs their stroller and not a wagon . Focus banning something and leave strollers alone.
Sheryl
You all are mean, don’t be hating on the ones that have them. I am a grandma to a 10 month only, 5 yr old and 6 yr old (all boys). You darn right I will use our wagon or stroller. Not only for them to rest and for me, but to keep them safe (they are just so darn convenient). I don’t really care what anyone thinks of me. Get over it!
Chaney
You do realize this is for China…

Wow y’all this comment thread was funny until it wasn’t. Here’s my take on the matter. Disney has always had some amazing things and not so amazing things. All that aside. What is nice is that once you get past security with what you’re allowed in the park for your kids, its up to each family who knows their own limitations to decide how to have the most fun balanced across whatever group or family unit they have. No two groups or families are the same. The less time your judging others is less you can have fun and enjoy yourself. Yes some people do abuse the System but not everyone. You choose is that ruins your joy not their actions. They aren’t even thinking about you.
Strollers and wagons provide help and a way for some to have fun easier than others. But at the same time it can also be a burden because they can’t go on the rides with you. Anything you leave in the checked wagon/stroller park is subject to people who steal kid stuff from them. I had it happen everytime I’ve gone. Do to the needs of our group each time we have needed a stroller and sometimes also a wheelchair. For some that can’t be helped. And for many it takes time to even save the money to afford such a vacation so why shouldn’t they spend it how they want if they are paying for you. For those of you getting snippy, do you do this on all your vacations? Leave behind critical remarks on every hotel room door and such?
Bottom line. Enjoy your vacation and let everyone else enjoy Thiers. Remember people who aren’t turds enjoy more life 🤣
Sue
I think there needs to be some rules for size etc. I was on a bus and was knocked down by a double folded stroller not being held. I had bruises down my legs and lost a day in the park with only a quick sorry. I see the need but with proper use! I small child would have been seriously hurt!!
Michele
I completely agree. Too many spellers and wagons. And cheap people sneaking older kids in because they don’t want to pay
Lucy
I hope this doesn’t include disabled people, with walking difficulties, that normally use electric scooters to travel the Disney parks. If so, I would consider this very discriminatory
Alice
This article concerns parks in China-not USA. So no need for all the discord and unkind remarks
Jordan
A couple years ago I was in Fantasyland and a women yelled “ ugh, oh my gosh there are too many strollers, it’s so annoying!”
Did she forget she was at Disneyland? Also she was in an area where kid rides were. Some people are going to complain no matter what. If they don’t like it they should just stay in the comfort of their own homes.
Jarvis
Once parents see others with those damn Wonder wagons, they bring them….larger and larger. Side bags, canopies. Larger wheels.
What’s next? Banning all of them.
Enough! Stop trying to bring your home on wheels and camping out at theme parks. There are city parks for those things.
Even folded, wagons take up aisles in buses.
Let’s not get into the huge rented ECVs with canopies, baskets and bags for lazy fat people who take up spaces for the truly handicapped and elderly.
Sue
When you knock people for wanting to keep them safe. Shame on you. If you cant afford the wagon don’t be jealous. Its a-lot easier to push 4 kids in the nice wagon. You comments are ignorant. I hope Disney losses a fortune for their decision. Its about the kids.
domi
They almost want to drive a vw beetle
Lisa
If you have kids if you need the room why not us a wagon but that mine opinion I don’t care if you use a stroller,or a wagon some people need to mind your own business
Carla
What is wrong with you people? So much hate!
Dad
They should rename them SUV’s. (Small utility vehicles) I’ve seen them used for so much more than children, people haul their stuff as well. They are pretty convenient, no matter what size, shape or color they are. They are great as long as people are responsible with them. My issue with them anywhere, not just @ Disney, it the people operating them. Some people don’t care about other people. Blocking paths, doors, walkways and practically running into others if they are in their way. Not everyone is like that but there are enough and that is maybe why Disney is taking steps.
Michael
So Disney is going to ban big strollers but continue to let butt cheeks hang out of shorts ,dry humping in line, shirts with profanity and dudes dressed as princesses working at bippity boppity boytique…that’s why thier stock is down so low it corresponds with thier agenda.
Rachel
I think they should allow it for families with children age 3 and under
Ed
Disney is no longer the happiest place on earth and these comments showing The Ivanka attitudes prove it. Children in strollers are banned yet they rent them? Electric HOG mobile that do 5mph with a 400 pounder ( who would benefit the most to walk) are still allowed? I’m from Fl and gave up getting an annual pass due to the cow riders hitting me it had nothing to do with them raising prices but that’d I’d not help
Mama bear
My son was walking without a stroller the first time he went and he was 3 1/2, but he is very hyper. He has severe a.d.h.d. and also has autism. He never cried about walking and loved walking and holding his hand. We also stayed only until after lunch then we would go back to the hotel for a break and go back just before dinner time. I can see not allowing huge wagons due to parking and congestion issues, but that was my son. I know most kids don’t have the stamina to walk all of that time. They definitely can’t take strollers away, but the wagons are a bit to large during busy times.

Just visited Disneyland Paris last month (avoided the strikes thankfully). Nary a wagon in sight. Very few strollers. And not surprisingly, no wheelchairs and only one ECV. Also not surprisingly, no morbidly obese people and very few grossly overweight people. No service animals, no emotional support animals, no pets. I wonder why Europeans can visit parks without these accessories but USA cannot?
Joanne
I’ve never seen such vicious “people”. Using a person’s name as a derogatory slur is just beyond primal.
Joanne
You also sound like a bunch of 3rd graders, lol!😂😂

Let’s face it folks Disney has been going down hill for many years now. We used to go when I was a kid and it was to celebrate being a kid which is what Walt wanted. How it turned into the political platform, sexual preference day bandwagon from that is beyond me! But… They are about the money and “only” the money! Open your eyes folks, they don’t want strollers because not only eill they now implement their own strollers for you to “RENT” and claim it’s because they’re the right dimensions lol, but they don’t want you having anything you can store your stuff on so you’re forced to get a locker! Hmmm…. Seems like the “crappiest place on earth” wants to force a lot of things on us! All in the name of $$
Greyworm
LOL I agree with Kay, too many wagons. You are not a Karen. The women pushing said wagons are Karens100 percent of the time . Dee’s Nutz!
Eric
I don’t get the argument how is a stroller or wagon affecting anybody?
Ellen
My husband and I are always telling young people about the “Rule og 6”. A gentleman on the bus used this when someone asked what age is too young for Disney. If thryre younger than 6, they won’t remember it. If they’re younger than 6, they have meltdownl. No one has a good time…the poor child, the parents and the other guests.
Patty S.
I get it, strollers can be bulky and the wagons have gained more popularity HOWEVER, I don’t agree with everyone trying to get strollers banned at a certain age. My son just turned 6 and we are magic key holders. We go as often as we can to get our moneys worth and I take his stroller. Why? Because I’d rather lug it around than have melt downs because he’s tired. He loves the parks just as much as I do but his legs take twice as many steps as mine do so it can definitely add up if we do a full day. Since my husband doesn’t have a pass (he hates the crowds) there’s no way I’d be able to carry him. When we stay late, he’ll usually fall asleep on the walk out of the park and while we wait for the tram. He’ll wake up, get in the tram, fall back asleep, wake up to get back off until we get to the car and he falls right back to sleep. If they were to place more restrictions on strollers, they’d be making a huge mistake.
SPiT FiRE
I think if the child is past the crawling stage should be fine walking on there own two feet. that’s what good strong legs are for. They should not be babied or spoiled. They do it just fine running all over the house for hours without being strolled around And to have the poor child have to look at other kids there age walking. how does it make that child feel When the child is in a stroller too small to ride lol if the child needs a break from walking around. Take a brake. Go get a soda and put sugar into to the child’s body. And he /she will be ready and fueled up to go walking aka running to the next destination. When it’s time to leave and you see your child is getting tired 😩 crabby then it’s that time to give your child the last ride of the day a piggy back ride out of the park and to the car with a few breaks in between distance form the park to the car . Team effort. 💪🤝. Then by the time you hit the road. They will be dreaming in your back seat to be ready to run around the house the next day
