There are plenty of aspects of Disney vacations that stress us out — huge crowds, long lines, and high prices, just to name a few. Some of these even grind our gears so much that we’re calling for them to be BANNED in Disney World.
When packing for Disney World, your list might be getting pretty long. From bathing suits to pajamas, Mickey ears, pins, and then multiplying that by four for the whole family, the list keeps getting longer and longer. We’re here to help you cut a few items off your list.

We’re consistently putting together lists of our all-time favorite souvenirs, scouting out what will inevitably be our new favorite Disney gifts, and looking ahead to what Disney is going to offer. With that said, we’re fully aware that not all Disney souvenirs are created equal. We have several former Disney World Cast Members on the DFB and they’re chiming in on some park souvenirs they’ve found to be useless over the years!

With the millions of people that go to Disney World each year, not everyone you meet is going to be all butterflies and rainbows all the time. And, honestly, none of us are! We totally understand getting frustrated in certain moments – you’re hot, you’re tired, and your feet hurt, which makes it easier to get upset about little things. You also most likely spent a LOT of money to be at Disney World, and want to make sure you’re having the best time as possible.
