Best bag for taking to the parks

[lovemyguys]

Hi everyone!

I have an 8yr, 6yr and 1yr old. We are going to Disney at the end of May. It is our 4th trip in 4 yrs. I need advice on a good bag to take to the parks. I already have the baggalini but I am soooo over it. Plus I was never all that pleased with it anyway. I know I am in the majority b/c just about everyone loves the baggalini. So if there happens to be a non-baggalini lover that could recommend a good "park/airplane" bag I would greatly appreciate it!!
TIA!

I am a backpack girl. I do not like anything that goes across my chest. This is the backpack I carry.

Strangely enough, I only carry it to WDW. It is large enough that in addition to carrying all our regular things, it is functioning as a diaper bag, too.

I have a bag similar to that one. ITA I do not like anything across my chest, and prefer a backpack.

While I carry various bags on a normal day, I would never bring anything but a backpack to the parks (and my fanny pack ). When you need to grab two hands the last thing you need is a bag slamming into your elbow! They are just so much easier to carry. I cannot do messenger style bags...my chest is just too big and the strap between my girls just makes them look much bigger

I also use a backpack with alot of compartments. I use a neutral color so my husband and I can share carrying it around.

DH is the one bring backpack if we are going in the parks. It's a medium size backpack with mickey mouse printing.

I actually have become a fan of the sling backpack. So technically it goes across your chest but it doesn't swing around. I don't bring a whole lot into the park with us- so i use the croc bag.

It will be intersting to see how we do with bags since we will need to bring many things but no one will want to carry a bag. I have a good jansport back pack I am planning on bringing but I have also purchased a small back pack to see if that will be enough. Also my girls will think its silly but I did buy a fanny pack. I figure with having cameras that we will want to pull out a bunch a fanny pack would be great for that.
