Are tix needed kids under 6 at the Vatican?

I've searched the archives but could not find the answer to my question: do children under 6 years of age require a ticket for the Vatican? In our party of 10 we will have an 18-month-old and a 4-year-old, in addition to adults and children older than 6. There does not seem to be a way to order a ticket for anyone under 6. Thanks!

This is directly from the Vatican website: # Q. Is it possible to buy reduced tickets? A. Yes, it is possibile for children between 6 and 18 years of age and students up to 26 years of age with a student identity document (International Student Card to show on the day of the visit). # Q. Do I have to pay tickets if there are children under 6 years of age in my group?
A. No, you don't, they can enter for free with your group. If you are pre-purchasing tickets you can buy a reduced ticket for the 6 year old. Donna

Thank you Donna! I looked on the Vatican website, but I obviously missed the FAQs! I appreciate the help. ~Megan
