Hey, packing for Disney World isn’t easy, and there’s probably a lot of your list. You’re probably bound to forget a few items, too. Lucky for you, not only is Orlando a major city where you can get anything you can ever want, but Disney World itself is an entire city with so many essentials.
While you can get these essentials in the parks, it’s probably going to cost you a lot more. We found five essentials you can order ahead of time to save some money before even getting to Disney World.
Cooling Towel 4 Pack
Cooling towers in the parks can cost $22, which is way more than this four-pack for $12. There are even four different colors, so everyone in the family can have their own. I have personally bought them in parks after a desperate afternoon in July, and cooling towels are definitely worth the investment, but if you know you’re probably going to need them, save yourself the trouble of buying them beforehand.
Bluey Bubble Wand
We love bubble wands! Unfortunately, they can cost between $35 $40, which is wild! This Bluey wants is only $12, and guess what? There’s not even a Bluey want in the parks! So you have an ultra-special one that is cooler than everyone else’s. You can also bring your own bubble refills!
Loungefly Mini Backpack
Disney Loungefly bags are so much fun, but the price? Not so much. You can buy authentic Loungefly bags on Amazon, and if you catch it on sale, you’re in for big savings. This bag is 50% off and only $44, while you’re looking at $90 or more in the parks. You can take the time you need to pick your perfect design online, too.
Mickey Mouse Cooler Backpack
Can’t forget the cooler! If you plan on bringing any snacks or extra bottles of water and soda, a cooler bag can help keep them cooler all day long. This one is 50% off and only $37 and has backpack straps to make for easy carrying. My family always stopped at the grocery store before heading to our hotel to grab our favorite drinks, but you can also have them delivered to your hotel.
Minnie Ears
Of course, no Disney trip is complete without Mickey and Minnie ears. They’re usually $30 to $40 in the parks, but these are a two-pack for $10. You might not find the same fun designs you see in the parks online, but these are super easy to throw in a bag, and kids will love them.
