Disneyland is a magical place [1] where dreams come true — and it's also a place you can't bring pots and pans. Yep, the park has some pretty interesting things on their banned items list, and honestly, we wonder why they had to specify these! Of course, some prohibited items make complete sense, like weapons, for instance. Find out what you can and can't bring into the park [2], and make sure to leave your selfie stick at home the next time you head to Disneyland [3].
Pets
With the exception of service animals, which are permitted. Any other pets guests bring must be kept at an on-site kennel.
Wagons, Skateboards, Scooters
Both motorized and nonmotorized! Disneyland also permits any "trailer-like object" that is pushed or towed by anything. Their site specifies that "guests are not permitted to pull items behind them. Any item that requires a guest to pull it behind him or her, including a stroller, is not permitted into the theme parks."

Exceptions include baby food containers, medicine bottles, and small (under 4 oz.) perfume bottles.
