Officials said they plan to add dolls in wheelchairs to the rides in Walt Disney World and Disneyland Paris in 2023.
In a prepared statement, Disneyland said it has added “enhancements to our attractions to reflect more accurate representation of diversity around the world.”
The Disneyland Resort holiday season runs through Jan. 8 and includes huge Christmas trees, as well as special ride overlays such as the Haunted Mansion, performances and more. Sleeping Beauty’s Castle is covered in lights. In Cars Land, visitors can find Luigi’s Joy to the Whirl and Mater’s Jingle Jamboree, for the holidays, among others.
It’s a Small World was first redecorated for the 1997 Christmas season, with special lighting and decorations. It features the dolls dancing and singing Christmas songs as well as the iconic small world theme song, which has become an earworm for generations.
