This type of fan is excellent while visiting Disney during the summer months.  Disney also sells their own in case you decide to buy one there.

It's always best to bring a poncho.  They also work great with covering a stroller too.  They are easy to pack.  They sell them at the parks too, if you forget to pack one.

This is so cute, and having a fan on the stroller is a great idea for the summer heat.  We had one that did not have the ears in blue and it worked great at the parks and just going for walks in the neighborhood.

These are the best in my opinion.  It is not a towel, but a rubbery material and stays cold for a very long time.

This is great for tired feet after a long day at the park.  Some resorts do not have a tub, so you could also get a body wash instead. I think it smells soooooo good.

You are allowed to bring drinks into the park.  It is much cheaper and it is good to have some electrolytes while sweating in the hot Florida Sun.

I like to bring this water too, because it has electrolytes too. But any water is good.  Always carry a bottle in your backpack.
