"it's a small world"

A musical tour with children of the world. You won't be able to get the song out of your head for the rest of the day so stop trying!  Our attraction video features almost all of the ride and clocks in at over 7 minutes.

Fun Facts:

Originally created for the 1964 World's Fair in New York as an exhibit to benefit UNICEF, this is a boat ride through a Lilliputian land populated by colorfully dressed Audio-Animatronics dolls representing children from many regions of the world.

There are a total of 289 dolls who "sing" the familiar song, "it's a small world," in five languages (English, Italian, Japanese, Spanish and Swedish). Academy Award-winning composers Richard M. Sherman and Robert B. Sherman created the song for the attraction, another of the original Magic Kingdom attractions from 1971.
