Disney4me Posted Tuesday at 08:00 PM Report Posted Tuesday at 08:00 PM When you go to Disney World for the first time, it can be super overwhelming with all the details to take in. From which Lightning Lanes and where to eat to where the spot for the best castle picture is, and which hotel is best for your family, it can be a lot. We’re in Disney World every single day and bringing back all the details you need to know right here so you can plan the best trip ever! Magic Kingdom We’re pulling together a few Disney essentials that we think every first-timer needs to bring. If you’re wondering where to start with your packing list, check this out! DISCLOSURE: This post may contain affiliate links, meaning when you click the links and make a purchase, we receive a commission. Owala Ariel Owala Water Bottle There are many different water bottles to choose from, but we always come back to Owala. We love that there’s a lid we can open with the press of a button so our dirty fingers don’t touch the mouthpiece. You can also use the straw or tilt it back to sip, which is great for those who love options. Grab it here! Pinfolio PinFolio Go Pin Display Bag Trading pins is SO much fun, and this pinfolio keeps all your pins in one spot. It easily fits in a Loungefly bag and has a thin plastic divider so your pins don’t get scratched up. You can put all of your spare pins there so they’re easy to find when you find a pin you can’t live without. Grab it here! FuelRods Charging magnetically! We really can’t live without FuelRods! While you might have some battery packs at home, what’s so great about these is that you can swap them out for fully charged ones for FREE around Disney World. When you used your battery pack all morning and need to recharge before fireworks, you can swap it out and keep your phone charged all day long. Grab it here! Ear Holder Our Eybila Ear Holder! Squishing your Mickey ears in your backpack? Not the vibe. This keychain makes it easy to slide your ears in when your head needs a break, but you don’t want to squish them in your backpack. It’s also great for when you see a pair of ears in the store you can’t live without but don’t want to carry an additional bag all day. Grab it here! Handheld Fan JISULIFE 3 IN 1 Handheld Mini Fan Disney World can get HOT, so you’ll want to make sure you’re prepared to beat the heat in any way you can. These fans are easy to recharge and hold while you’re in line, walking around, or even grabbing a snack. While it is small, it packs a punch! Grab it here! Popcorn Bucket Lid Holder ©Amazon If you’re planning on buying a traditional popcorn bucket, please go ahead and buy this lid holder. It slides onto your bucket so your lid won’t come off. We like to clip the bucket to our backpacks, so this keeps our popcorn from spilling everywhere. It’s also super small and easy to throw in your backpack when you don’t have your bucket. Grab it here! Cooling Towel Sukeen 4 Pack Cooling Towel Remember the whole “Disney World is super hot” thing? Yep, go ahead and grab the cooling towels too. You can dip these in cool water or run them under a faucet, then place them around your neck, waistband, or anywhere else you might need a little extra cooling. This is a four-pack so everyone in the family can have their own designated colors. Grab it here! Mini Umbrella BAODINI Travel Essentials Mini Umbrella This is another way to beat the heat! It folds up super small, so you can tuck it away in your backpack easy peasy, but when you’re walking around the parks with the sun beating down on you, you can take this out and save yourself from a sunburn, too. Grab it here! Rain Poncho Frogg Toggs Poncho We never go to Disney World without our favorite poncho! It’s lightweight so we don’t get too sweaty when wearing it, and it folds up so we can put it in our backpacks. If you’re coming to Disney World, it’s very likely it will rain at some point, so you’ll want some rain gear to stay ahead of the weather and keep going with your day. Grab it here! Sunscreen Supergoop! You’re definitely going to NEED sunscreen — no exceptions. Even on overcast days, that Florida sunshine is shining through and you won’t want all of your family photos to show off your gnarly sunburn all because you forgot to grab sunscreen. SO grab some, and then probably a few extra. Grab it here! Hand Sanitizer ©Amazon Disney World can get pretty gross too, so don’t forget the sanitizer. We like this one because we can clip it onto our backpacks so it’s always easy to reach. It’s nice to be able to use a bit after rides, before eating a snack, and any other time when you feel like you’ve touched a little too much. Grab it here! Deodorant ©Amazon Please don’t forget the deodorant! While we keep some in our toiletry bags, it’s nice to have some mini sizes in your backpack when you’re in the parks. With all the sweat and rain, we like to reapply a little extra every now and again so we don’t feel like a rat in Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure. Grab it here! Sunglasses ©Amazon Another classic! With all the sunshine, you don’t want to be squinting all day, and in case you lose your go-tos, we prefer to have a backup. These aren’t very expensive either, so if you leave them behind on Buzz Lightyear, you won’t be devastated. Grab it here! Thermal Phone Case ©Amazon As people with our phones always out in Disney World taking pictures and video, let us tell you that your phone can and will overheat. This little bag helps keep that from happening! When your phone isn’t in use, you can keep it in the pouch to protect it from the sun. Grab it here! Liquid I.V. ©Amazon Because Florida is so hot and you’ll likely be sweating more than you’re used to, we like to bring these on-the-go electrolyte packets. We add them to a bottle of water to keep us hydrated all day long, and it tastes pretty good, too. Grab it here!
