the Peoplemover does a good job of being open-air and not having a height requirement. I dont know how practical it would be to redesign the seats on the trolley but considering you arent tall enough to ride the kid-oriented nursery-rhyming ride until you are tall enough for Spiderman, Transformers, Men in Black, and the Simpsons is kinda outrageous.
Also, Cat in the Hat can maintain spinning without being restrictive. It doesnt need to be violent.

^Theres no reason a railing couldnt be installed along the Trolley tracks a la Peoplemover. Also, the Fatasyland dark rides all have similar vehicles/restraints as Cat in the Hat so I dont get the problem there if its not the spinning.
In any case, little kids (who make up a key component of the money-spending and highly-attractive "family" demographic) need more to do at the resort.

Let it go! It's not gonna change back. 36" pretty much encompasses almost all children that would remember riding the ride anyway. We're talking 4 and 5 yo's can still ride the ride so who cares. It's not that big of a deal.

Please tell that to my 2 1/2 year old who hasn't been to the park in 10 months and rode Cat in the Hat about 5 times on that trip. He is now to small to ride it.
There was almost nothing more heartbreaking to my wife and I to see our son after having to do child swap on 95% of the rides in islands of adventure light up upon seeing the ride enterance and saying "cat in hat" over and over and over again and having to tell him he can't go on it again until he is taller.
You may not think it's a big deal but it's huge when your a parent and a ride your child loves is no longer accessable to them. Sorry but my child remembers that ride and was very sad that he couldn't do it.
The spinning is very tame now, it seems it is now just turning to put the show in the correct view.
My wife lost her hat on ET yesterday going up the hill into the cityscape so I don't think lap sittin would be a good idea! ;-)Honestly, if Universal allowed lap sitting, Cat in the Hat would be fine. E.T. should also allow lap sitting IMO, considering how tame it is - no different than PPF. Seuss Trolley is open-air so I understand a height requirement, but lap sitting should allow it to be 32" or 34". Maybe tinker the ride vehicles? It's the tamest outdoor ride in all of IOA and it has a 40" height requirement... no, just no
E.T. and Cat would be all-ages at Disney since lap-sitting is permitted. Makes no sense that Universal is so adamantly against it.

I'd love to see a picture of this if anybody has oneWhen the park opened there used to be spaceship-shaped alternate vehicles on ET that had no height requirement, but they were eliminated during an early refurb.
