Are you getting ready to leave for your 1st Disney world vacation? Excitement and nerves going thinking of everything you need to get ready and pack? Are you worried your forgetting something essential? Disney world has pretty much everything you will need while on you trip, but it all comes with a price. Prices are inflated for almost everything at theme parks and Disney World is no exception. One way to help save money, time and be prepared is to buy what you will need ahead of time. Here is my list of Amazon must haves for your Disney World Vacation.
Autograph Books
Meeting the different Disney characters is a memorable event for your little ones. Therefore your kids will definitely want to meet at least a few of the characters if not as many as possible! An autograph book can make the perfect souvenir and can also be cost efficient if you get them at the right price. There are many great options for autograph books I have listed my favorites
- Walt Disney World Official 50th Anniversary Autograph Book
- Princess Autograph Book
- Spiral Autograph Book with Pen
Lanyards
Collecting Pins is a big thing while visiting Disney land. There are venders all over where you can stop and trade your pins for other pins. A lanyard is a great place to store your pins while walking around the parks! If you get a lanyard with a coin pouch you can store your pressed pennies in that. As there are pressed penny machines everywhere and if your kids are like mine they will want a pressed penny everywhere you go.
Neck Fan
Florida heat can be so intense especially if you go during the summer months. Disney World does not have many shady spots so you should expect to be out in the sun and heat for long hours. A portable fan is one of my top must haves. There are many options for portable fans hand held ones, Neck Fans, and stroller fans. I highly recommend the neck fans and and least one stroller fan. Both of these come with the misting option also.
Cooling Towels
As I mentioned above Florida heat is intense especially if you’re visiting during the summer months! Cooling towels are a must for me. They really are a life saver when you have been walking around the parks all day and are over the heat. You can find these at the resorts but save some money and get you some before you leave for your vacation.
Apparel
Everyone loves where Disney clothes while visiting Disney world. And while yes you can find some adorable clothing while shopping at Disney world I recommend buying some ahead of time to save yourself some money. Also matching Disney apparel is a must. This helps to pick out your family while in a crowd. Amazon, target and etsy have great options
Backpack
A small backpack is an absolute must while visiting Disney world. No worries about where your going to put it while on the rides. Most the rides have pouches on the rides where you can place your belongings while on the rides! My favorite brand for Disney Backpacks is Loungefly. Loungefly Brand has many different Disney backpacks that are adorable. Plus buying a loungefly backpack ahead of time will save you a ton of money! Amazon has many choices to pick from but also Hot Topic is a great place to shop for your Loungefly Backpacks.
Water bottle
Being in the Heat and Sun all day you are going to need water! Pack a water bottle so you can fill it up at the hotel before you leave, along with most quick services through out Disney will give you free cups of ice water.
Reusable Straws
Disney World now uses paper straws throughout restaurants in the parks. While this is a great proactive way to be eco friendly paper straws start to fall apart relatively quickly. Bringing your own reusable straw is a great way to be eco friendly and have a good quality straw.
Small Cooler
Pack a cooler and some reusable ice packs. You can use this to pack snacks for the parks along with take extra drinks. I used this large lunch box and it worked perfect for snacks and drinks for the kids.
Comfortable Shoes
You will be walking a bunch. I normally do around 10 miles a day while at Disney World so comfortable shoes is a must!
Enjoy your Disney World trip
Getting ready for your Disney world trip is extremely exciting! But it can also be very overwhelming. I want to help you every step of your Disney World trip.
