So, my girls are 17 and 15 years old but we brought them to Disney for the first time at 14 months (the twins and actually my youngest was also 14 months too) and they were all different....my older ones wouldn't have cared about the drop (we brought them on Haunted and I forgot about the ghosts that follow you home, oops. We covered their eyes, not sure now if that was necessary) but my youngest at 14 months hated everything but the real birds (she LOVES disney now, lol) so the drop would have freaked her out. If you decide to go for it, just don't make a big whoop and act like this is the most fun you have ever had and chances are, your little one will be just fine. And if she isn't, a treat will fix it, lol. Good luck. Take a ton of pictures, you won't be sorry.
