Overview

Sunny Day Carousel has no minimum height: children under 42 inches ride with a companion, which makes it one of the few rides open to the very youngest guests. The horses and vehicles are decorated in Sesame Street characters rather than the classic carousel animals, spinning to cheerful music since the ride opened in 2019 with the rest of Sesame Street Land.

ParksLog verdict

The right starting point for a toddler's very first theme park ride — no intimidation factor, no height cutoff, just familiar characters and the timeless mechanics of a carousel. Don't overthink it: if a young kid wants to ride, the wait is short and the payoff in pure delight outsizes the modest experience.
