First time at Disney with one year old

[Disneyjoey]

Looking for any hints on taking my little one to Disney
I.e. What to pack for a day at the parks,
What are the best parks to go to,
And just in general any suggestions which will make my holiday easy going and not stressful.

Cheers

hi...
We too will be traveling to Disney w/ our little one for the first time... When are you going?!?!?
A few things that I read that was really helpful and plan on to use is...
Using the baby centers... Each park has one and its a great break for kids and parents...
Bring a clear garbage bag w/ you to cover the stroller in case of bad weather...
Bring snacks to the park for the child to eat.
Schedule down time for them.
pack a night light for the hotel room
If you are going to use the hotels play crib bring your sheets from home.
if you are going to use a stroller rent a stroller bring an umbrella to cover up from the sun and stickers for your name tag (this way you can easily identify it when you leave it for rides and restaurants)

We have been with both of our little ones (now 2.5 yrs and 6 months) and the best advice I can give is....

1) Naps are REQUIRED for everyone to stay happy (at least with my kids)
2) The Baby Care centers can solve almost any problem - locate them on arrival
3) You can never have too many diapers
4) Always have at least one change of clothes with you - I am amazed at the mess my son can make without doing anything!
5) Snacks (goldfish crackers work well) make lines easier to handle
