When you visit the Disney Parks, you’d best come prepared!
Our reporting team is always testing out all sorts of essentials that can save a Disney vacation. Over the years, it’s safe to say we’ve found some items that we just CAN’T live without when we’re at the parks.
Keep your devices fully charged all days thanks to this theme park essential
The INIU Portable Charger is available in several different colors and is equipped with one USB-A and two USB-C ports, as well as a detachable braided USB-C cable. TSA-compliant, easily portable, and super handy when the My Disney Experience app is draining your phone, this charging bank is a lifesaver.
This next essential is a great way to prioritize cleanliness
The Disney & Touchland Hand Sanitizer and Mickey Mouse Case Set is a great accessory to bring with you to the Disney Parks! You can use it after rides or if a mess has been made during a meal, and it really does ease a lot of anxieties. This set features a Wild Watermelon scent and is enriched with aloe vera and essential oils. Best of all, it comes in a fun Mickey Mouse mist case!
Stay dry with our favorite poncho
The Frogg Toggs Ultra-lite2 Poncho comes in a few different colors on Amazon and is available in youth and adult sizes. This 100% waterproof poncho is lightweight, seam-taped, durable, and even comes with a tote stuff sack. Whether you’re looking to stay dry on water rides or survive those pesky mid-afternoon storms, this poncho can save the day!
Add some style to your water bottle collection
We love our Owala water bottles, and this Owala Princess Ariel Water Bottle is another winner. This 24-ounce bottle is made with insulated stainless-steel and includes a FreeSip spout that lets you sip upright through the built-in straw or tilt back to swig from the spout opening. Staying hydrated during a long park day is crucial, and this themed essential goes a long way in making sure you’re happy and healthy.
Pin collectors will love this essential
The PinFolio Go Pin Display Case is PERFECT for folks looking for a fun way to show off all of their great Disney pins. This enamel case lets you store, display, and trade up to 40 1-inch pins. Durable while remaining stylish, the PinFolio keeps pins in place without the need for pin backs, so you can collect and trade with peace of mind.
Keep your skin happy with this sunscreen
On top of staying hydrated, keeping your skin protected is vital. The 4floz bottle Eucerin Sun Sensitive Mineral Sunscreen Lotion is SPF 50 and contains highly effective broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection. Full of mineral filters, this lotion leaves an invisible finish with no residue — so you can still look good in your Disney fit while protecting yourself.
Sport this cute Mickey hat
Speaking of protecting yourself against the sun, check out this Mickey Mouse Unstructured Baseball Cap!
