Hi Shirley!
Thanks for stopping by the Disney Parks Moms Panel. I am thrilled to be able to help you plan your very first Walt Disney World Resort family vacation! Be sure to pick up complimentary First Visit buttons from any theme park Guest Relations location or Disney Resort hotel front desk so Cast Members can help you celebrate your first trip.
Standard Walt Disney World Resort theme park tickets allow Guests to enter and reenter one theme park per day. While reentry is always subject to park capacity, as long as you aren't traveling on the very busiest holidays (such as Christmas Day and Independence Day), you should have no problems taking a break during the day as I have never had a problem reentering a theme park later in the day.
I have found during my family vacations that taking a break during the day is a great way to make sure everyone in my family has energy for our entire day. So feel free to go back to your hotel to take a nap or head to
Disney Springs to enjoy its shopping, entertainment and dining before you head back to the theme park you are visiting that day to enjoy its incredible nighttime activities!
Please let us know if you have any other questions as you continue planning your trip. T-T-F-N, ta ta for now!
