It's Dumbo.

Pros:

The newer location with two rides is better than one, and there is rarely a wait. The waiting play area is very cool for parents.

Cons:

One of three spinners in the park, it has trouble standing out despite being the original. A lot of the time the controls don't seem to work.

It is Dumbo. There is no more to say.

Pros:

You have to ride on your first Disney trip and it is a classic.

Cons:

Longer lines and it is more for little kids.

Pros:

2 Spinners and playground for kids while waiting.

Cons:

Not thrilling

A must if your children are visiting WDW for the first time. Now there are two carousels so the load time is faster. Plus, guests can get on a waitlist and sit in the air-conditioning while their children play on a playground until it's time to ride.

Pros:

Iconic ride that everyone recognizes from the commercials. Air-conditioned playground waiting area. Loads much faster now. Great for first memories at Walt Disney World.

Cons:

None. It's a ride for young children and they'll love it.

A classic Disney ride modernized!!! This new version is much more fun then the old version! It’s smoother and a little higher! And the best new feature is the queue where a cast member gives you a restaurant beeper and your kids get to play on a indoor playground in AIR-CONDITIONING and wait for the beeper to beep then you get on!

Pros:

Better then the old and Disneyland version quick wait usually around 20 minutes and an awesome queue!!!

Cons:

Kinda short

You HAVE TO ride Dumbo. It’s a requirement. We were lucky to ride this practically empty on a drizzly evening (pre-covid) and it’s just as magical as you remember as a kid.

Pros:

A classic Great for younger kids Apparently the line is fun and interactive

Cons:

None

Nothing special, but a must-do while at Disney with kids.

Pros:

Waiting area playground is great for the kids. Nice view once you're up in the air.

Cons:

Boring.

The classic Dumbo ride that is themed well and very cute. The play area inside is good for really little kids, but I feel like there are SO many other things I would rather do in magic kingdom. I will throw it into a plan if we have extra time, but would never go out of my way to ride it or wait more than 10-15 minutes for it. I might recommend it if you have a really young child that can't make the height requirement for some of the other rides.

Pros:

Super cute theming and a "classic". Play area for little kids (under 5 years).

Cons:

Standard spinning ride that you can find at other amusement parks or even your local carnival.
