    I have 1 day ticket. We are going to rope drop. May I leave to my Disney resort to take a nap after lunch then return back after without park hopper pass? I have a toddler and want to be sure she naps.

    Hiya Jordan,

    Welcome to planDisney! As a toddler mom myself, I know how vital nap time is to having a good day for the entire family. That midday break can be a gift, and we are very fond of it! While our nearly three-year-old has spent many naps passed out in her stroller after the magic got the best of her, nothing beats taking a snooze in your resort hotel.

    The great news, Jordan, is that your theme park ticket does allow you the ability to enter and re-enter the park as much as you would like. Since it's not a Park Hopper Pass, you wouldn't be able to enter a new theme park with your ticket, but you could enter the one you started your morning at. One thing to note is that if the theme parks reach capacity, the ability to re-enter may be paused; however, I've never personally experienced this. The only time I've ever heard of it occurring is on incredibly busy holidays!

    I hope this was helpful, Jordan! Before I let you go, if you do decide to hang out in the theme parks all day without your midday break, I've found that the Baby Care Centers and select indoor play areas (like EPCOT Seas Pavillion) can be perfect to park your stroller with your sleeping beauty in it and keep her cool. As I've mentioned, we've done this numerous times when our toddler is already asleep before we reach the exit since she doesn't stay asleep when we transfer her in and out of her stroller. Please come back and see us if you need anything else before your trip in a couple of weeks.

    Happy Planning,

    Ashley F.
