What Should You Wear/Bring to WDW?
Are you planning a trip to Walt Disney World and trying to figure out what to bring? As a travel advisor, and a mom, and a frequent Disney goer, I am quite the expert when it comes to what to pack for a trip to Disney World. I have some tips I’d love to share with you that will come in handy while traveling with your family.
These are my top 5 things to bring to the park that you may not have thought about:
1. Ponchos- With Florida’s unpredictable weather, you should absolutely bring rain ponchos. Yes, you can buy ponchos at Disney World, but they are costly ($12 a poncho) and reusable, so you’ll have to fold up a wet poncho and carry it around. You’re much better off buying a bunch of cheap ponchos from the Dollar Store or Amazon, that you can discard. Get a bunch! They’re great for putting on a wet bench or over your stroller.
2. Portable Phone Charger- You’re gonna be using the Disney Parks app and other Disney apps throughout the day and you’re not going to want to worry about finding access to an outlet. Bring a portable charger so you don’t have to stress over that.
3. An extra pair of shoes- You might get your shoes wet from the rain or soaked on a water ride. Your shoes are bound to get soaked in some way, and you’re not going to want to put on wet shoes the next day you go to Disney, so it’s best to have an extra pair of shoes to use.
4. Ziploc bags- You can put your kids wet shoes in a ziploc bag and not worry about getting everything else in your bag wet. You can put extra buffet food in some ziploc bags to have a pick-me-up snack for later. They’re good for holding dirty diapers, or anything you don’t want touching other things, until you are able to discard it. Ziploc bags can also be used for protecting your camera or phone from getting wet on rides or in the rain. It’s also great to compartmentalize your outfits for you and for your kids in separate ziploc bags.
5. Cheap Sunglasses- It is so important to bring sunglasses that you don’t mind losing, or breaking, or getting ruined, because that is bound to happen with all the excitement that’s going on.
