Well besides packing the kids daily clothes in individualized bags I store ALL possible exploding toiletries in there too! I also pack unused bag in the park bag to put dirty shirts/shorts etc.
I've heard of people putting a wet facecloth in them and keeping them in their bag too! :thumbsup2

I like to take a hand towel from the room and keep it wet..bigger than a washcloth. I use the baggies for extra dessert that we can't eat because we are too full, bring home snacks from Goofy's even tho they pack them in a box...I like them in a zip lock. I also, put, dish soap (to wash my refillable mug), Purex laundry new thingys, also, for the kids, put 1 pair of socks and underwear for each day. Also great if you will leave later in the day and need to put your bathing suit in it:)

I am going to PM you what I do with the bags. I am afraid I will get flamed.

We put our cell phones/cameras/etc in zip locks on wet rides.

Like some other posters I like the ziploc bags for cell phones, cameras, things I did not want to get wet. I put each of the DDs autograph books/pens in one. "things that may leak' such as sunblock/lotion. I also took a couple empty ones for wet 'things' after the parks. Snacks, wet washcloth.

I'm taking a couple empty ones in my bag to the park---for wet ponchos. If it rains (or maybe WHEN it rains-lol) there is no way I'll be able to fit those ponchos back in the bag they came in, but I'm sure I can fold them enough to go in a ziplock baggie and thus, not drip all over our other stuff.

Great ideas! That will be very easy to pack a days worth of clothes so my kids can just pick a bag out of the suitcase and be ready to go.

Ziplocs-
We used one drawer for snacks and many were the full-size bags. Every morning I told each kid to pack a snack and they could have whatever fit into their baggie. Otherwise DS9 would have brought a whole bag of Cheetos for Magic Kingdom but he would have eaten it all on the bus ride there!! :lmao:
I loved having them when DS2 waited too long to tell me he needed to pee for the 2nd time in one morning and we had to haul around lots of wet clothes.
I used one of the gallon size to fit in wet wipes, a pair of shorts & undies for each of my 2 youngest, & extra hand sanitizer. It fit neatly in the stroller basket and I never had to take it out when I folded the stroller.
And at Tusker House when DD2 slept through the entire meal, I used a small ziploc to save 2 (yes, only 2, although I would have liked about 20...) of those little, tiny, brownie lava-cake things, ohhh, they were so good and I knew she would just love them! So, flame me if you want, but I took them for her to eat later, and she loved me for it!!!! :rotfl2:
