5 Kid-Friendly California Vacations

Disneyland

Here's the Deal

This is the park that started it all. It's nowhere near as big as its Orlando sibling -- some find that a plus. Go early and take water. Packing lunch means you don't have to stand in yet another line.

What's for Kids

Everything here is for young kids! For Mickey, Donald, and Goofy sightings, head to Mickey's Toontown. A Bug's Land and most of Fantasyland are also geared for the under-5 set.

A Place to Stay

Holiday Inn at the Park is less expensive than staying on-site, yet it's just a quarter of a mile away. The pool is open around the clock.
