Get this set of reusable cooling towels!
Cooling towels
We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: it gets HOT in Disney World. Like, oppressively hot. So hot you won’t believe there was ever a time that you weren’t covered in sweat from head to toe. Luckily, these cooling towels are compact, reusable, and make all the difference.
This set of moleskin patches might come in handy.
Moleskin
You’re going to be doing a LOT of walking around the parks and hotels, probably more than you’re used to on a regular basis. Blisters can happen without you even realizing this, so if you think you might get a hot spot having these in your park bag can be a lifesaver!
We love this reusable rain poncho!
Poncho
Rain can sneak up on you at the drop of a hat and Disney World ponchos are EXPENSIVE. We love having a reusable, compact one on hand to toss in our park bag on particularly rainy days!
Or, you can keep cool with this neck fan.
Bladeless neck fan
We know, we know, we’ve said it before. But that’s how serious we are about staying cool in Disney World. Using a bladeless neck fan like this is a clutch move!
Don’t forget to stay hydrated, too!
Owala water bottle
Above all else, you’ll want to stay hydrated in the parks no matter what. Owala water bottles are all the rage and it’s easy to see why! They keep water ice cold so you can quench your thirst whenever you need to.
And finally, pass the time in line with these Disney playing cards!
Disney Bicycle playing cards!
We won’t lie — those long Disney World lines can be a serious bore, but not if you’ve got these Disney Playing Cards from Bicycle in your park bag! There are so many different designs to choose from like Stitch, Disney Villains, Princesses, Lion King, Frozen, and more. The possibilities for fun in line are endless!
