When you travel to Disney World, you’ll likely find out quickly that there are some items you just CANNOT do the parks without.
We’ve been there ourselves multiple times, but hey, you’re in Disney, so why not have your essentials themed to Disney as well and make them cute? We’ve tried out each of these items in the parks ourselves and can fully recommend them with our whole chests, so if you’ve been needing a few extra additions for your next trip, look no further than these!
Keep Yourself Cool on Hot Days!
Having a mini fan on hot days in Disney World is WAY more of a lifesaver than you may realize. It’s a small breeze, but in a hot line, it makes a WORLD of a difference, so why not make it Mickey-shaped? The LACOVIA Cute Mouse Misting Mini Fan is small enough to fit in your pocket easily, has three different speeds, and we love that it has a plastic casing around the fan itself, so you don’t have to worry about little ones getting their fingers caught. Now, the misting feature wasn’t the most effective, as you have to have it pretty close to your face to feel it, but if you need a bit of extra cooling, it’s a good way to go.
Carry Your Water Bottle in Style
No one loves having to carry their water bottle in their hands all day, and sometimes you don’t want a bag large enough to fit it. On hot days though, going to the parks without a water bottle is nearly unthinkable, because it’s ESSENTIAL to stay hydrated. That’s where the Mickey Strawberry Water Bottle Carrier Bag comes in! It’s cute as can be and will easily carry a large Owala, Stanley, or other brand of water bottle. Plus, it has some small pockets that can hold your phone, credit/debit cards, and more small items to make it one of the only items you need to bring into the park that day. It’s also great to use on the go when you’re outside the parks!
Speaking of Water Bottles, Make Yours Disney Themed!
While you can theme your Owala water bottle to whatever you’d like if you add stickers or other decorations, you can also grab the Rapunzel Owala to have your water bottle already themed to one of your favorite Disney Princesses. We’ve also seen Belle, Ariel, Moana, Captain America, TRON, and so many more. These water bottles never fail to impress us — they hold tons of water yet are on the slimmer side, keep water genuinely cold for a vast majority of the day, and these designs are ADORABLE. We can’t get enough!
Keep Those Hands Clean
Theme parks are FILLED with people, and all those people touch many things throughout the day. If you’re not able to step into the bathroom to wash your hands, we recommend carrying some hand sanitizer around with you, like the Touchland & Disney Special Edition Hand Sanitizer! The carrier is shaped like Mickey, who’s also on the front of the hand sanitizer itself, but this isn’t just any hand sanitizer. It’s also got aloe vera and essential oils inside of it as well, so not only will it sanitize your hands, but it’ll leave them hydrated and smelling great as well.
