Packing for an entire family is a daunting task for any vacation but it can be especially hard to figure out what to bring when you and your kids are going to be spending an entire week at Disney. Trying to decide what all to bring for a baby or toddler adds even more stress.

I’m the type of mom who would rather over pack than under pack. I want to be as prepared as I can without carrying around super heavy bags all day. I have gone to Disney with my kids at different ages and am going to share with you my top picks to make a day in the park as seamless as possible.

The first items to take into considereation are anything that your child may need for medical or nutrtitional needs. For info on how we navigate Disney with allergies, check out this post.

A great bag really greatly impact how well a long day in the Florida sun will go. You’ll need something with a lot of compartments and space but that’s breathable as well.

TOPDesign Universal Baby Stroller Organizer, Stroller Caddy with Heightened Insulated Cup Holders & Non-Slip Secure Hooks Accessories, Fits Most Strollers, Machine Washable (Zoo)
  • MULTI-FUNCTIONAL PARTITION: It features plenty of pockets to stash all your baby’s essentials, from tissue pocket, detachable front pocket, phone slot and other storage space. The unique aspect is the heightened cup holder on the right can be opened in a pulling-out way from the top to put higher baby bottle, so as to prevent it from slipping even if shaken hard. And the left insulated one can keep water bottle, thermal cup or coffee cup.
  • TOP DESIGN & DURABILITY: The removable wristlet pocket for quick access to phone, lipsticks and other small items. With the adjustable strap, use the organizer as a shoulder bag when carrying the baby for walks. Using thicker waterproof Oxford material, embedding the metal frame and bottom board inside, strengthening the edge achieves better transverse and longitudinal support. Those exclusive strengths other competitors don’t possess- makes the bag more durable and stays upright.

If you need more cup holders or space on your stroller, which let’s be real, who doesn’t? Then this attachable stroller caddy will be perfect. It has a lot of extra space and is available in lots of colors and prints. This would be a great way to keep tissues and cups or even cell phones handy.

Speaking of sippy cups, I love these Take and Toss cups. We use them every time we travel! And I do mean every time we travel! They come in a pack of twenty which is really great so that you’re not worrying about constantly washing sippy cups. Simply toss the old and start a brand new one when needed. Once I’m ready to wash dishes I usually wash them and save them. They make great kids’ cups anytime and getting multiple uses out of them is a good way to get your money’s worth!

  • LOTS OF USES – Not just for wet stuff – these bags make excellent organizers for storage and travel; with a snap handle, snap your bag wherever you need it – stroller, changing table or suitcase

There are so many stroller options it can feel overwhelming trying to pick out one that’s compact enough but big enough for carrying your kids and all of the merchandise you’ll be buying. This stroller is our favorite to bring to the parks. Our son is now four years old and he’s pretty tall but this stroller continues to fit him as well as our collapsible (loaded to the brim) cooler and more! It folds up fairly compact which definitely comes in handy. We’ve had it almost three years and it has held up well.

If you have more than one little one needing a ride, this double stroller would be a great option. It folds up compact as well and even has a carry strap for easily toting it around.

If you don’t want to worry with the hassle of bringing your own stroller, you can of course rent strollers in the parks for a fee. There are also stroller rental services available in Orlando for your stay through third party rental companies.

While there are first aid stations on Disney property, I find it best to bring my own bad aids. This first aid kit is small and will fit perfectly in most bags. Also, if you or anyone in your family has special medication needs, these are my favorites for keeping epi pens temperature regulated or organizing pills.

If you want to keep your kiddos cool in the stroller, these stroller fans are my favorite! I actually have two, one for my kid and one to attach to the handle bar to cool me off. These are going to be a much better price than fans on Disney property.
