🎟️ Travel & Documents (Canada-Specific)
Don’t forget: even infants need a passport to fly internationally. We applied well in advance and kept digital + printed copies.
Passports for All (Including Baby)
While not always required anymore, we keep it downloaded for smoother re-entry.
ArriveCAN App (Just in Case)
We purchase gift cards when grocery shopping, out and about, and use them at the parks!
Disney Gift Card
🎒 Park Bag Essentials
We use the Summer Infant, 3D Mini Convenience Stroller —it folds easily and is lightweight enough for buses/trams.
Compact Lightweight Stroller Disney-Approved
Florida heat is real. We love the Gaiatop Mini Portable Pram Fan from Amazon Canada. We recharge it every night and it's good to go for the day!
Clip-On Fans
We bring our Yeti bottles so we can refill from any fountain. It also keeps the water so cold! Fill the bottle with ice at your hotel/resort before the parks, and it does not melt as quickly in the Yeti!
Reusable Water Bottles
Disney apps (and multiple pictures all day) drain your battery. We use Anker Portable Charger —compact and reliable.
Portable Charger
We pack a KeaBabies changed pad -perfect for changing anywhere in the park and wipes down easily.
Foldable Changing Pad
Perfect for the plane and throwing in your bag for a park day!
Toddler Snacks - MadeGood
Another perfect snack for the plane (just make sure to let them know you're bringing it on and they can check). And perfect for park days!
Baby/Toddler Pouches
👶 Toddler Comfort & Entertainment
For fireworks, rides, and overstimulation. We use Baby Banz and love them!!
Noise-Cancelling Baby Headphones
Characters love interacting with little ones holding their own book and pen—pick up a cute one at Indigo before you go!
Autograph Book
For hotel naps and stroller rides. We actually purchase an extra one for the trip, just in case it gets lost, then the original is still at home
Favourite Stuffie (or Blanket)
Way cheaper on Amazon Canada than at the parks. We bring one with extra bubble solution from Dollarama
Bubble Wand (Brought From Home!)
Florida rain hits hard. We pack compact ponchos from Amazon.
Reusable Ponchos (Kid + Adult Size)
