Some guests really work the wheel so that they spin at a dizzying pace. Such fun is completely optional and most riders with children let the ride do the work, turning and twisting in a fun manner without too much action.

The tea cup ride is set to approx. two minutes, which is just the right amount of time to enjoy it without getting bored. In the amusement business, there's a fine art to maximizing an experience and Disneyland, the top theme park in California and Disneyland theme parks globally are the world's largest theme park entity. They've had years to refine the experience for guests and have it down to a science, as you'll discover when delightfully climbing aboard a tea cup, minus the tea.

A catchy tune called, a Very, Merry Unbirthday plays as you spin in colorful self-contained units shaped like teacups that hold up to 4 guests, each.

A very merry unbirthday
To me
To who?
To me
Oh, you

A very merry unbirthday
To you
Who, me?
To you
Oh, me

Let's all congratulate us with another cup of tea
A very merry unbirthday to you

Now statistics prove
Prove that you've one birthday
Imagine just one birthday every year
Ah, but there are 364 unbirthdays
Precisely why we're gathered here to cheer

A very merry unbirthday
To me?
To you
A very merry unbirthday
For me?
For you
Now blow the candle out, my dear
And make your wish come true
A very merry unbirthday to you

In this un-birthday, the Mad Hatter hosts a tea party in an outdoor garden filled with bright colors and a Japanese lanterns. Situated between the Storybook boat ride and Mr. Toad's Wild Ride in Fantasyland, this spinning ride only lasts a couple minutes but is filled with joy as the bright, happy music is generously pumped through loudspeakers to the giggling, spinning audience.

Fantasyland is one of the most beloved, fun themed areas of Disneyland as it sits next to the park centerpiece where stunning fireworks are launched at night, Sleeping Beauty Castle.  Dumbo the Elephant ride, It's a Small World ride and other favorites are nearby.  For families with children or adults who seek low-action with less jostling around, this is where you'll want to go.

Connecting to Fantasyland via It's a Small World ride is Mickey's ToonTown, a place where small children can play, ride several kiddie rides, and families can dine on simple foods such as hot dogs.
