Going to Disney World takes a LOT of planning, and we’re here to help you do that!
You may be surprised to learn that there are things you NEED to have with you when you go to Disney World, and it’s more than just the basic essentials you may think of. We’re in the parks every single day and have experienced firsthand when you REALLY need to have these items with you, so be sure you’ve got them before you step into the parks!
Keep Your Feet Dry!
These may look silly, but TRUST US when we say that these Silicone Waterproof Shoe Covers are game changers. We’ve worn them in the parks on super rainy days, and they help make sure our socks and shoes stay comfortable and dry. Nothing is worse than walking around in wet, gross shoes and socks, PLUS it creates blisters, and those suckers can HURT.
Keep Yourself Dry For Only ONE Price
There are tons of ponchos on the market, but we LOVE the Frogg Toggs Poncho with all our hearts. These aren’t overly expensive, are great quality, and also don’t make you feel like you’re baking in an oven in the Orlando humidity. You won’t have to buy them over and over because they don’t rip or tear easily!
Plug In All Those Devices!
While Disney World hotel rooms often have a lot of outlets, sometimes you just have so many devices that need charging, and it’s terrible when you have to pick and choose what to charge each night. To avoid this, grab yourself a Flat Plug Power Strip to make sure everyone can charge everything they need to each night.
Make Sure Your Phone Stays Charged ALL Day
Keeping your phone charged all day is extremely important for many things. Communication with your friends and family, taking photos and videos on your vacation, making dining reservations or Lightning Lane reservations, and everything in between. We’ve used a lot of chargers, and one of our favorites is the Anker 621 Magnetic Portable Charger!
Keep Yourself Cool
Disney World gets HOT, okay, so you need to make sure you’re keeping yourself cool. We love the JISULIFE Handheld Mini Fan because it truly is mini, can easily fit in a bag, but it’s also pretty powerful! Don’t underestimate the power of a small breeze, because it truly can revive you on a hot, sweaty, day in the parks.
Avoid Those Awful Paper Straws
We love helping make sure we’re keeping the environment clean and leaving it better than the way we found it…but we’d be lying to you if we said that we liked those paper straws found around the parks. Instead, we recommend grabbing some Reusable Silicone Straws to carry around the parks with you!
Not A Fan of Plastic Silverware?
If you’re not a big fan of eating with disposable plastic utensils, which you’ll find at many snack locations around the parks, you’ll want to grab yourself the Reusable Travel Utensils Set to put in your bag! This comes in a set of four and each one has its own case, so it’s easy to share, or place them in multiple different bags so you always have one on you.
