Additional Info needed for Space Mountain

My son is just turning 5 and will want to ride Space Mountain. Last that I remember, but I could be wrong, there were no seat belts or straps in the vehicles. Where would he sit, directly in front of me so I can hold him or is there a strap to keep him in?

Hey welcome to the Buzz.

This is a pic of the cars. There is a bar to hold you and your son in place.

Re: Additional Info needed for Space Mountain

As long as your son meets the 44" height requirement there is a t-bar that goes over your lap and holds you both in.

My son was a small 5 (But tall enough to go on) - he rode, and was held securely in place :c)

Re: Additional Info needed for Space Mountain

The lap bar comes down over the lap area pretty snugly. My daughter was 5 when she rode it for the first time last year ans she rode in the front car. He'll be fine.

Re: Additional Info needed for Space Mountain

Space Mountain should be no prob for your 5 year old. The shoulder/lap bar is secure and he'll have a blast (off)...
