For any of you parents who have taken their LITTLE kids to Idlewild, I'm in a big quandry...

We live in Pittsburgh, so Idlewild is really a day trip for us - no need to stay over night. However, I can't figure out how to get the most park time in given his naptime.

DS is 2 1/2 and usually naps from 1:30 -3:30. I can push him to 2 or 2:30, but that's really it or he's super cranky. Idlewild opens some parts at 10:30 but most rides for him won't open until 11:30!

Any tips on how you may have dealt with this issue?

We never had this problem because my son was really good about missing a nap from time to time. If he was really tired I would just let him fall asleep in the stroller where ever we were at.

Why don't you let him nap his regular time in his stroller while you have a late lunch. Is this a theme park? If so, since it's summer maybe they stay opened later at night and you can get alot done after his nap.
