I used to be a cast member, and I'm currently a Disney passholder. I love Disney world for the vibe. It's nice to go a place where everything is manicured and I can enjoy time with the people I love. Things have changed, though. I was a cast member when I was 19 years old. Now, almost a decade later, I have a one-year-old, and boy-oh-boy do I do Disney completely differently. Here are 18 tips I've learned from taking my kiddo to the parks.
1.Invest in a stroller cover.
2.Splash pads + change of clothes = 😃
3.The Skyliner and monorail are basically free amusement rides.
4.Bring enough wipes.
5.Viva la snackle box.
6.Skip Genie+.
7.Splurge on a character breakfast instead.
8.Epcot is the best park for toddlers.
9.Take a pool day.
10.Find the launderette.
11.Split up.
12.Rider swap is nice, but sometimes inconvenient.
13.Don't underestimate how magical hotel rooms are.
14.Opt for a place with a boat, monorail, or Skyliner connection so you don't have to collapse a stroller.
15.Forget the nighttime shows, and opt for a final ride instead.
16.Utilize baby care.
17.Pin trading is great for littles.
18.Finally, beware of squirrels!
