Rope drop is when the parks open in the morning. It may be hard to get up some mornings but if you want the most bang for your buck, this is your best bet. Some of the parks have opening shows and some of them choose a "family of the day". The best reason to get up early and head to the parks is LOW crowds. Low as in walk on almost any ride for that first hour. You can get a lot done without dealing with the lines and there's just something special about walking into an almost empty park.
This is even better when there's an "Extra Magic Hour" offered that morning. Extra Magic Hours are only offered to Disney resort guests. One park each day will offer EMH (Extra Magic Hours) either in the morning (one hour) or at night (up to three hours). These are great to take advantage of but once the crowds start coming in mid-morning, you may want to park hop to a less crowded park or go back to the resort for an afternoon nap then return to the park for the nighttime festivities.
Here is a picture I took this past October at Magic Kingdom:
