We have a pretty big backpack when we go to Disney World. From phone chargers, extra jackets, water bottles, spare napkins and silverware, plus the ten EPCOT festival passports we keep forgetting to take out, your packing list might be getting longer and longer when you start looking at what you really need to pack.
This one essential might be used more than our phones. I know, I know, can we really say that as Disney Food Blog since we’re constantly taking photos and videos around the parks? We think we can!
Meet our favorite Mini Handheld Fan.
We seriously do not go to Disney World without this. We keep it in our backpacks so we never forget it at home, and we never notice the weight. It’s small enough to keep in our hands, and this thing packs a punch. Don’t be thrown off by the small size; it can really save the day.
There are multiple settings, and when the Florida heat and humidity get too much, turn it on to the highest setting, and you get instant relief. We’ll walk around with it, use it as a line for snacks and rides, and even prop it up when we’re eating to keep the cold air coming. It’s super compact and even doubles as a phone charger. Score!
Make sure you keep following Disney Food Blog for the best Disney essentials you’ll want for your upcoming trip to Disney World. We’re in the parks every day trying new items, snacks, and strategies, and sharing them back with you so you can have the best trip yet.
