Disney provides great resources that under the heading of accommodations for guests with disabilities, which means many people never know they are there! One of those is a list of attractions with notifications of certain conditions: loud noises, drops, dark, etc. I found this to be priceless at WDW when my kids were young.

Also, have you ever used social stories? I made these for many different scenarios such as sleeping over at Grandma's, first day of school, flying, and Disney World. The idea is to write a story with your child as the main character, using "I" language. For example:
"My family is going to Disneyland! I have never been there before, but my mom tells me it is fun." Then include a picture.
"I might feel nervous about going to this new place. Mom told me I don't have to ride anything I don't want to. Here are some things that I REALLY want to do: eat ice cream, watch a parade, swim." Then include a few pictures of those things from Disneyland.

I hope you have wonderful time and make magical memories!
