Disney park bag necessities/nice to haves

Purple Star emoji 17 items
The bag and the goods we used while doing 6 days at disney. We had a bag for each adult (mom and dad). With these items the bags were never too heavy, and fit what was needed with a bit extra room for some things we may purchase in the parks.

Keeps the water cold all day! I suggest getting a smaller one and then packing some like propel packets to flavor the water as the water at disney doesn't taste well. Or fill prior to going to park.

Any type of waterproof phone case. It rains, there are wet rides, you will sweat, something will spill. The last thing you want is your phone to be limited or useless while on vacation.

Disposable so you can toss them and not have to worry about carrying around a wet one. We would only put them in our bags when rain was predicted for more than an hour. If it wasn't a long period of rain, we would just plan to take shelter (eat or ge...

Phone use is required throughout the park. A charge bank is required pretty much to keep you on the go. I recommend not buying a super large one as they can be heavy but depends on how many phones you may need to charge.

My family loved picking these out, and matching to their personalities! We didn't have to carry cards and worry about losing them in the park. Such a great thing! (the enhanced ones aren't worth it)
