Sofia is coming to the parks with us often these days, so I thought I might share how we approach taking a toddler to Disneyland. Where we go. How we prepare. Plus, some tips and suggestions along the way.

So I thought I had better get down there and get more reference video of the ride and the queue. Along the way I'll talk about some of things we should expect, and some of things I'll miss. Then we'll head out into the park to enjoy ourselves for just a bit!

My aunt used to take toddler twins (her grandkids) to Disney regularly. She's no longer with us, but I KNOW she would 100% agree with you. She would never dream of going with a plan. She never forced anything. She told me about how you can spend hours on main street with a toddler. She had entire trips to Disney where they never got past main street. She loved those kiddos dearly, and she was the one that took me to Disney growing up, so I can vouch for her way of thinking. I had the best times with her following along when I was little. When I got older, she would run around and collect faspasses for the family. Anyway, just had to say how you made me smile, Dave, because your advice echoed the refrains of my aunt who loved Disneyland and kids so much.

@courtneyedwards9124 Год назад

This goes out to all the naysayers about the Toon Town remodel and how they didn't like the new theming. The new Toon Town is exactly what Disneyland needed. A place where kids don't have to stand in lines and that they can safely explore without limits. Well done !

@carolynanderson2689 Год назад

Flexibility with a little one is a MUST! ❤️ The first time we took our oldest son to Disneyland as a child, he LOVED just meeting characters and riding the carousel in Fantasyland. He slowly grew into more and more rides and eventually grew up to insist on proposing in Disneyland! ❤️ All our adult children LOVE Disneyland and we can’t wait for our first trip this summer with our granddaughter! 💕 The day will be time to explore with her and we’ll enjoy our time in the park at night! Disneyland is just magical for everyone - at any age! 🤗

@melissaCA76 Год назад

It’s a whole different story when you have multiple kids spanning a wider age range. Everyone has their own likes and goals and cooperation is really vital to group satisfaction. That’s when having a plan is really key to making everyone happy. 😊

@geofferypmeyers Год назад

Especially when you’re all coming from out of town and have a limited time to do everything!

@crazycatlady1393 Год назад

Yes! Agree

@barbhawkinson659 Год назад

Thinking back to you and the little ninja hanging out at Disneyland and here you are yrs later with your baby girl. Watching her little run from behind is priceless 😊 Seeing your happy face being with her always brings the biggest smile to my face. Loved every minute of this video. ❤ She's has the best daddy.

@chrisanntoelupe984 Год назад

So fun! Loved watching Sophia living her best life at Disney. I bet she slept well that night after all the running around. 🥰

@silentpaw Год назад

I've been following the Tracker Family in their WDW adventures. When their son became a toddler, they let him plan their Disney day, and they all had the best time.

@alltheinnocence Год назад

This video is really helpful. I've been to Disneyland countless times throughout my life, but in March of 2024, it'll be the first time I'll be taking a kid. My boy will be 2 and a half by then, and I definitely would have been trying to plan out everything ahead of time. Letting him lead the way is a good idea to make sure he stays happy and we all have a good time 😂

@qatsidan Год назад

I love your approach. I think a lot of parents would do themselves a lot of good by getting a very basic knowledge of developmental psychology to understand what life stages are able to understand what levels of structure. At Sophia's age, there's no point in having a plan. You can have some ideas of what will happen, but a plan? Her brain isn't ready to understand what that even is. It frustrates me to no end to see parents of very young kids act exasperated that *their* perfect magical day has been somehow ruined by the kid they claim to be there for.

@allykiyo Год назад

Our three year old spent 2 hours in Toontown last time we went. We have been trying to follow her lead a lot more and it has lead to significantly less meltdowns and power struggles. Plus, it make her SO happy.

@tanyaosterman Год назад

She's such an independent and brave little girl. This video made me so happy because I have been waiting for her next adventure on Tom Sawyer's Island! It's one of the mysteries of life that little legs can move so fast.

@danielguizar360 Год назад

I love bond between u two.

@seanbexton Год назад

I wasn’t expecting cuteness overload turning on Fresh Baked, but I’m here for it!!

@Ceelle2 Год назад

I love going with my almost 30 year old now but I miss these days too. Can't wait to take my future grandchildren. Short days but big impact. Someone needs to find Sophia a hat like that!

@lonepop1 Год назад

This was WONDERFUL! And valuable. We are going in November, and my granddaughter/princesses will be 4 1/2. I hung on your every word. I HOPE they will be able to run free like Sofia, and their mom and dad will be rushing to keep up with us.

@virginialake5080 Год назад

This is so awesome especially coming from such great parents to Sofia! It's a different type of adventure with a toddler. 😊✨ Fresh Baked ❤

@mlou4444 Год назад

I think if you have a Magic Key and go all the time it makes sense to just wander around. Do a few things they want, like a regular park, but don't try to Jam Pack the day and everyone has a an easy stress-free day. However, most people do not get to experience Disneyland that way. You're spending thousands of dollars and you may only do this trip once every few years, you are going to want to do as much as possible without stressing yourself out. In those cases it is best to have a plan.

@tarainsell4836 Год назад

Always a joy to watch her run around and enjoy the Disney fun!

@nicolelanger8672 Год назад

I had many many fantastic days at the park with my daughter by just going with it. She is now a preteen and loves to have her independent moments from time to time. We love Disney.

@bradkoerner1 Год назад

A joy to watch your child enjoy the small details of DL. My boys are already 13 and 15 and because we moved abroad, the pandemic, etc. I've had precious few chances to go to Disney parks with them. A huge letdown in my life. ENJOY every minute with Sofia!

@sirmalmsten1982 Год назад

@Lizzybunny99 Год назад

Hey FreshBaked , I'm went to Disneyland yesterday and I rode Splash Mountain and today right now I'm at Disney California to having fun and all thanks for your videos and you are the best!!

@LemonJMG Год назад

This is perfect timing! We are taking our 14 month old very soon for the first time!

@lupitaordaz1391 Год назад

I agree with you on not having a plan lol. Every time I take my 2 year old I let him decide what he wants to do and go with the flow 🥲😂

@kristahackleylmt2064 Год назад

You're the best dad! My parents tried to control everything at Disneyland. Now I've been by myself recently, with no plans, like you all... and I've had the best time of my life!! I'm definitely buying a yearly pass when they come up again, and going solo, A LOT. ❤

@TheHilliardFam Год назад

For everyday we were in Disneyland, we set aside time to have our daughter run around the play area within Toontown. Letting a kid have that freedom of not being restrained for a long period of time was great! Also, Soarin' has a height requirement to where WEB Slingers doesn't.

@Imzadi Год назад

Ever since you announced you were expecting I knew this video was coming! Yay!!!🎉

@Imzadi Год назад

I’d love to add that I agree, let the kids lead the way. Go with the flow. Watch the ducks, touch the water, run around Tom Sawyers. Let go of expectations and just be a kid WITH them! We go yearly with our three. Ages 6, 4, and 2!

@toshibavoodoo Год назад

FRESHBAKED is DISNEYLAND!!!!

@lindasolis7117 Год назад

So wonderful to see Sophia having a great time running around Toontown- my son did that when he was little many years ago. That's what the area is meant for!! This was a very fun and informative video to watch. I love to see how much you love being a dad, and how fun it is to see Disneyland through Sophia's eyes! 🥰

@aussiewendy5059 Год назад

Been taking my kids from Australia since they were 10 months old. I find it so easy taking babies and kids to the parks. Long haul flights are daunting at first but the more you do it the better the kids get at flying, my kids are 7 and 4 and love being in the air for 14+ hours They come off the plane better than me !!

@rienailo Год назад

While I agree about the no plan thing, I think the one thing I always plan for is food. Otherwise my toddlers (two under age 5) will want to play and go on rides until they are hungry and grumpy. So I try to plan in breaks where we will stop to eat and calm things down a little.

@sloppyjoe4017 Год назад

@scottdailey3898 Год назад

i was the same age as sofia the first time i went to disneyland..and that was 1963....omg. does time fly by....

@ivanleyva9076 8 месяцев назад

This was most helpful we will be in the park next weekend I can’t wait …..see you guys made me so excited for my son and daughters first time there keep up the videos and happy new year

@kdm71291 Год назад

Agreed…TSI is a must with a little one!

@andierob Год назад

Chasing after them in those areas can get very tiring.. I have to have my grandson within my sight at all time. We took him there (redwood creek) when he was 3 1/2 and i was tired lol. I bribed him with a treat to get us outta there lol.

@darleneboice2855 Год назад

Thank you for sharing your Sopia Day at Disneyland and DCA! Felt like a kid again. Reminded me of my visits with my two sons when they were little. I was smiling the whole time!❤

@kristinotto102 Год назад

I take my 5 year old, 3 year old, 2 year old, and soon one more often and I agree with you! Never have a plan! We just do whatever everyone wants to do in the moment! I only keep a loose plan for food because even with snacks we all get hangry fast and having an idea of where/when we might eat helps us to be able to eat quick when we need to. Only thing I didn't agree with is the tablet in the stroller, my kids love having that time in the stroller to rest and decompress, whenever they have an activity in the stroller they get way too overstimulated and cranky and we end up leaving way earlier than anticipated.

@eztli_c Год назад

I love this video. I don't have kids but it's something I would love to have someday. I also just love watching you and Sophia together. If i ever have a bad day, you guys never fail to make me smile ❤

@MomtoZnE Год назад

I saw you yesterday (Saturday) standing right in front of city hall! I didn’t want to bother you when you were with your daughter. It was mid-afternoon and must have been right before you left to go to California Adventure. It was just cool to walk into Disneyland and one of the first people I see is you!

@ihearttea14 Год назад

The Redwood Creek Challenge is my kids’ favorite. I hope they keep it around. 😊

@disneylovingmama Год назад

I love this video! This is my life with my 4 year old. When we went in April I couldn't get her out of Toon Town. That place is so great for kids! Our meltdown happened at Redwood Creek. People ask why I take my kids at such young ages, there is so much for them to do!

@elizabethrichard6176 Год назад

Yes it is a lot. I used to go all the time with my kids and at the time they were 5 1/2 4 and 2 year old twin toddlers. I can’t even imagine how I did it but I left and yes we have meltdowns. They are now 30 to 33 and 27.

@leighims Год назад

That was very sweet. I’m sure Sophia had a great time leading the way. Fun to see her favorite rides and I’m sure she slept well that night (you too).

@ashleydrake5224 Год назад

@user-ic8wu9nv5b Год назад

I havent been to Disney since before the pandemic and now I’m going back for the first time with my 2 year old this week! So excited but nervous 😬 Going to lower my expectations for how much we do and let her curiosity and interest guide our day. Thanks for the video, David!

@jeremywade1388 Год назад

This is my wife and I"s favorite video you've done. We loved it. Keeping doing those style of videos. Great job!!

@Mouserocksnerd Год назад

I love your advice! We definitely went too hard last trip, and chills were lost 😂 We had a four year old who was excited to do all the rides because he's tall enough... And was pretty much scared after the first one with a drop. I love your talk about being even more flexible with kids! Next Auntie trip, im definitely adopting that strategy

Love it, David. She's adorable and I'm so glad you guys get to share these memories.

@melissajensen3166 Год назад

Great video for tips that have young ones. She was Sooo tired on the outro clip. You can see it on her face. She will sleep good the night of this video! I totally agree, you can’t have a regimented plan for the parks if you have a toddler. It will never work out! Past experience mom here!

@kb6lcw99 Год назад

We got a walk off from pirates at the close of the park tonight. Cool lights on evacuation!

@christomopher89 Год назад

Awesome taking my almost three year old in September. So nice to hear someone say what we were thinking let the kid lead we are there for him. Wish I knew we needed Genie+ when we first purchased our tickets since apparently now we need to wait until day of? Anyway love the videos. My son being enthralled with some of your livestreams is what convinced me we should go. So excited! Thank you!

@Outrider916 Год назад

I think it's awesome you and Liz get to take her to the park ass often as you can.

@DJT_351 7 месяцев назад

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! David not the tablet!!!!! Oh no, so sorry. Bordem is good; constant attention grabbers and simulation is bad. I'm so happy you guys get to do Disney locally. Take care. - Dad of four who takes kids on weekly "dates".

@Meganmama Год назад

That’s interesting that all rides offer rider switch. When we were there in February the cast member at Web Slingers said there wasn’t a height requirement so we could take the baby on. But man, I wish I hadn’t taken the baby! It was way too overstimulating and loud for an 8 month old!

@rjvsmb Год назад

Thank you for sharing your Disney Life.

@gdy2shus Год назад

Awesome topic!

@jeanh9321 Год назад

I just spent 3 days at Disneyland and 1 day at Universal Studios and I must say that it was exhausting. Probably since we only go once a year, we have to jam in as much as we can each day. I certainly wouldn’t want to do this on a daily basis. I can’t understand why people want to go there a couple of time each week all year long, but I guess that it’s done differently when you don’t have to jam in everything in 3 days. Even still I couldn’t make this my only go to place.

@laurene5748 Год назад

When did you start consistently taking her, and when did she start to enjoy it?

@alexandraogorman6879 Год назад

How old is Sofia? My daughter will be 2 in September, and we'll all be visiting for her birthday. All of this information is very valuable, thank you so much for these videos!

@Portuguese-linguica Год назад

That was awesome David. Thank you for sharing.

@eddieg6436 Год назад

My mother REFUSED to take me to Disneyland until I was 5 years old. “You wouldn’t have remembered anything” , “strollers are for fat, lazy people”, and “I would be in no mood for any tantrums, or crying”. My mother was ABSOLUTELY CORRECT! I’m now 52, and totally understand her correct decision. I remember my first Disneyland visit very well! Great memories! No crying, no strollers. …..My mother was VERY European, enough said!!!

Thank you for this video. I have been overwhelmed by the content out there with planning folders and times ride times etc. Do you suggest one park for kids or is there stuff for them on the adventure side too? I’m thinking of getting a 2 day pass but maybe only do disneyland park. Thanks

@ainsleyperry5192 Год назад

FreshBaked. David, Sofia. Is'nt "Gadgets Coaster" the best coaster in the park? Can I just say it's the same if you take a toddler or the wife/ partner/ girlfriend to the park. You have to let them "Run" and do what they want to do. Stand well back when you mention it's time to go home. Because they can lose their "Chill" as well! Liz told me, that you came home and slept for 2 day's. Sofia had just worn you out. Cheers, Chris Perry.
