First you have to ask yourself, do you and your child want to go on all the rides and how many days you intend to spend there. Do you want to rush through Disneyland or do you want to enjoy yourself leisurely?
1 day, 2 days in my opinion is definitely NOT ENOUGH for a child, or for that matter even for adults. You will definitely be rushing around, and queing for the rides, you definitely will not be able to go through all in such a short time.
At times queues can have hundreds of people in line.
Let me share with you my experience, same Disneyland where you are going in Anaheim. I went on a free and easy trip, got air tickets and hotel accomodation from a Sg agent. I arranged for 8 days accomodation at a hotel just outside of Disneyland, there are lots of hotels/motels. I purchased a 5 days Disneyland pass from the hotel (can't remember how much). Balance 3 days spent on travelling around and shopping. The pass will allow 5 days entry into Disneyland, on one of the days you will be allowed early entry, that is before official opening time 9.00am. Think it's 7am.
Having a 5 day pass allowed me and my family to leisurely enjoy ourselves there and we were able to go through all the rides, some more than once. As we had time, we bypassed those that have long queues, went for other rides first. When we felt tired, we exited Disneyland, went back to hotel for a rest and returned again later in the afternoon. You will be allowed entry again on the same day. There are free shuttle services from most hotels/motels to Disneyland entrance, so there is no problem.
There are plenty of different shows and parades everyday and night. With 5 days you will be able to see a lot of shows and parades. Night parades are beautiful, especially Main Street. As for your child, DON'T miss out Toon Town, where all the Cartoon characters are.
Too much to tell you ... but if you think 5 days is too much, then take the 3 days pass, cheaper too. Make sure you and your family enjoy yourself thoroughly, after such a long flight and the amount of money spent.
Not far from Anaheim, there's Universal Studios and Knotts Theme Park where Charlie Brown, Lucy and Snoopy is. You can get there by car.
