When you visit Disney World, you’re going to need to pack some essentials in your park bag to help with keeping you hydrated, keeping you cool (because it can get hot and humid in Florida), and dry (because it will also rain at least one day of your Disney World trip).
PinFolio bag
When we need to stock up on park essentials, we always turn to Amazon because we can find everything we need to stock our park bag with things that will make sure we stay comfortable in the parks. Even better? Amazon has these essentials at very affordable prices, under $30 each!
Get the Waist Fan
AMKEN Waist Fan
If you don’t want just a neck fan because your entire torso tends to get hot, we love this waist fan that just clips to your waistband and keeps you cool from the waist up. This little baby also has a serious cooling effect with three speed settings to make sure you keep cool even on the hottest Florida days. We were honestly surprised at how strong this little fan is.
Buy the Handheld Fan
The JISULIFE Fan
If you don’t want to carry around something so heavy, there’s always the handheld fan that we often bring to us to the parks. This little fan will do the trick when you’re standing in line: just pull it out of your bag and turn it on. It’s also so compact because it folds down and takes up very little space in your park bag.
Get the Cross Style Rubber Bands
Keep your popcorn from getting everywhere!
Okay, so have you ever had a popcorn bucket full of popcorn and the lid just isn’t very sturdy, and it slips off and popcorn goes everywhere while you’re just trying to carry it? Well, these little bands are PERFECT for that because you can slip them around your popcorn buckets (or any other food containers you might bring into the parks) and everything stays put to prevent messes. That’s why we just call these popcorn bands!
Buy the Mini Umbrella
BAODINI Travel Essentials Mini Umbrella
Not everyone wants to put on a raincoat or poncho during a rainstorm, especially if it’s already super hot outside. But this mini umbrella is so compact that it’s easy to pack in your day bag. But this little umbrella is also for those sunny days…those super BRIGHT sunny days when the sun’s UV rays are declaring war on your skin. This does a great job of blocking those rays and making you feel a lot more comfortable while protecting your skin. We also love how it comes in its own little case.
Get the PinFolio Bag
We love our PinFolio!
If you’re a pin collector, you shouldn’t go to Disney World without this handy bag that lets you display your pin collection, as well as keep the pins you collect stored. It’s so easy to use, too, and it even comes with a strap so you can wear it like a purse, but it also easily fits in a Loungefly-sized backpack. You can fit up to 40 pins in it! The backing for the pins is also sturdy, and once your pins are in there, they’re not going anywhere, so they’re good and protected.
We’re always on the hunt for the latest and greatest Disney souvenirs and essentials, so don’t forget to stay tuned to the Disney Food Blog for more!
