food IS a theme park
We are in the Disney parks every day, so we’re sharing the essentials you actually need!
Fuel Rod and adapters
Disney days are long, hot, and tiring — having the right essentials to make your day easier is important. We test Disney essentials in the parks and at the Disney hotels to let you know what’s worth your time and money. Here are seven Disney park essentials we’ve tried out that are available now.
Some Disney World packing lists are built for Instagram. Ours are built for heat, dead phones, surprise rain, and the kind of hotel room outlet situation that tests families.
Disney World essentials
The real ones are built by people who have been personally victimized by Florida humidity, a dead phone at 3PM, a hotel room with one available outlet, and a surprise monsoon that appeared out of nowhere like it was auditioning for a dramatic EPCOT fountain show. And since we spend a frankly alarming amount of time in Disney World, we’ve learned exactly which travel essentials are worth the suitcase space.

But traveling isn’t always as easy as we’d like it to be. You’ve got to deal with flights and hotels — both of which can potentially be a less-than-stellar sleeping experience. We love finding ways to make ourselves just a little bit more comfortable when traveling, and this $9 Amazon find is just the thing!
Staying in a hotel room is exciting, but you also probably want to make sure you pack the things you need to just make your stay easier.

When you’re headed to Disney World, it’s important to pack everything you need in your bag. That includes the things you may not THINK you’ll need, and then regret immensely when you realize you didn’t think it’d be important.
We LOOOVE reusable straws!
Now, listen, we totally get that not EVERYTHING marketed as an “essential” actually IS one. We’ve seen it time and time again, and that’s why WE spend money on those, so then we can tell you what’s actually worth it (spoiler alert: there are a LOT out there that we’d never recommend). These six items, though? We’ve tried them all out ourselves and genuinely think they made our trips a lot better — now we want the same thing for you!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
