When I'm at Disney I need to carry even more...
To meet sensory needs-
- Noise reducing headphones
- Chewies
- Comfort toy or blanket
- Sunglasses (Ben is much more comfortable with them- choose lightweight designs)
- Dry clothes (if being wet from fountains, rides, or rain will bother them)
- Snacks- sometimes you need a certain snack- Disney always allows you to bring in food!
General family needs-
- Magic Bands or Tickets - don't leave home (or the hotel room) without them!
- Wallet- Magic bands are great, but you probably will still need your wallet.
- Gum, chapstick, little things you carry with you daily. Gum is not sold at Disney- be sure to pack it from home!
- A smart phone- No if you don't have one it doesn't mean you can't use the system, but it certainly helps you to be flexible, and check wait times and things.
- Portable battery- between the My Disney Experience App, playing games in line, taking pictures and of course posting those cute pics on Facebook, a phone dies pretty quickly. Don't forget the cords to plug the phone into the battery.
- Camera- If you aren't using just your phone and Photo Pass. Don't forget a large memory card.
- Ziplock bags- Tropical showers and Splash Mountain are good reasons to put those electronics in a Ziplock to protect them.
- Sunscreen- Don't forget to reapply!
- Ponchos- You can buy them in the parks, but having some from the dollar store isn't a bad idea.
- Garbage bag- if you have a stroller, a garbage bag can keep it dry.
- At Animal Kingdom- You will want a cup to put kids drinks in. Lids are not on the cups to protect the animals (paper straws are usually available).
Optional (but fun!)
- Mickey Ears
- Autograph books
- Fat pens (characters hold those easier)
- Lanyard or bag for pin collecting
I know it seems like a lot! Really, it will make your life easier!! We like to split these items up into 2 bags, my husband and I each carry one. If you still use a stroller, then 1 lightweight backpack works too!
