Happy 250th to the U S of A, folks!
If you’re heading to Disney World or Disneyland Resort for the 4th of July, be prepared to celebrate big! There are themed snacks, special fireworks shows, and exclusive merchandise collections all featuring the red, white, and blue. And if you’re in need of a packing list for the occasion, we’ve got you covered!
Get the perfect Minnie ears!
Starting out our list, we’ve got to ACCESSORIZE. This 4th of July Minnie Ears Headband is perfect for the most patriotic holiday, topped with white stars and a red bow. They’re cheaper than ears in the parks too — coming in at less than $10 on sale.
This Mickey shirt is too cute!
For your little ones, we love this Disney Mickey Mouse Boys’ Jersey T-Shirt with patriotic sunglasses. It’s the ultimate summer tee, and it comes in toddler and child sizes. Pair this with your own red, white, and blue sunglasses, hats, or shoes, and your kid will be dressed just right for the holiday.
We love the Minnie dress!
For little girls, there’s this Disney Princess Minnie Mouse Sleeveless Ruffle Sundress. It’s decorated in her signature white polka dots and some art of Minnie Mouse herself. Sizes are available from baby through toddler — just don’t forget to put sunscreen on your child’s shoulders when they’re wearing this out in the summer heat!
Or, you can grab a fan favorite!
Of course, we know that Bluey is all the rage these days, and if you’re going to Disney World, you can now see her at Animal Kingdom’s Conservation Station. This Red White and Bluey Shirt from Amazon is a must-have for your Bluey-loving kiddo and it’s available in toddler and child sizes.
Don’t forget a shirt for the grown-ups!
Of course, us grown-ups need something to wear too! We like the Disney Mickey And Minnie 4th Of July Americana Big Face T-Shirt. You can get it in a few different colors with Minnie Mouse on the front in her patriotic bow. It would make a great matching family tee situation!
Sun protection is important!
Of course, if you’re visiting in July, you need all the sun protection you can get! These Mouse Ears Sunglasses for Women Adults are very on-trend right now, and you can buy them for cheaper online ahead of time. Plus, on Amazon, they come in colors that you won’t find in the parks!
Don’t forget to HYDRATE
The most important thing we’ll tell you about traveling to Disney parks in July is to hydrate, hydrate, HYDRATE. It’s SO hot this time of year and heat illness is prevalent! One of our favorite water bottles is the Owala FreeSip and this white design is really cute for using to collect autographs if you bring colored permanent markers.
And finally, a fan to cool off!
Speaking of the heat, we love having a handheld fan in our park bag during the summer! This LACOVIA Cute Mouse Misting Mini Fan will work great and has a fun Mickey-inspired design. It’s rechargeable with three speeds and folds up small to fit in your bag.
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!
