Taking a toddler to Disney World? You’ll probably have a BLAST, but you’ll want to prepare ahead of time!

Cinderella Castle

The key to success with your little ones is to have patience, go with the flow, and of course, pack properly! We’ve gotten pretty good at that last one over the years, and now, we’re here to recommend our favorite shoes for toddlers to wear in Disney World.

Get these for new walkers

If your toddler or baby is new to walking, one of our favorite shoes to start with is the Stride Rite 360 Baby Taye 2.0. These come in a few different colors and patterns, and they have soft, flexible soles and wide toe boxes that adapt to smaller feet.

Of course, one of the most popular shoes we see toddlers wearing in the parks is Crocs Kid’s Classic Clogs. These come in a bunch of colors on Amazon, they’re durable, and handle water well, whether it’s rainy or your kid’s a sucker for a splash pad.

We love New Balance as an option, too!

For your tiny tots, these New Balance Baby Boys’ 574 New-b Hook-and-Loop Sneakers are a great option for long park days. Comfortable and wide to accommodate little feet, they close with velcro to make it easier to take them on and off.

Once your toddler starts to size up into kids’ sizes, the New Balance Kid’s Rave Run V2 Bungee is a good choice. These also come in several patterns and a BUNCH of sizes — from infant to big kid. The bungee straps make them easier for kids to put on.

If you’re heading to the pool or plan on visiting splash pads or water parks during your trip, it’s a good idea to have some dedicated water shoes. These JOINFREE Baby Toddler Water Shoes are some of our favorites. They’re very breathable!
