I'm placing an Amazon order, getting our Frog Toggs, and want to get misting fans. What are the best ones? Also, anything else you can think of that we should order while we're at it?
We go every August, so totally agree with your Amazon list We use a Disney misting fan (blue one, bought in Magic Kingdom but sold in all Disney Parks) and it works well. We have brought it back for our last 3 trips, so it is durable. When using it, each morning we add a couple of ice cubes to keep the misting water extra cold. I will say that we use our Frogg Toggs the most of any cooling product (used them for 6 August trips so far). They are always draped around our necks. We each have our own Frogg Togg, but we only bought one misting fan as it can get heavy to carry around (although we do try to tie it / hang it from the one back pack that we carry). We also pack extra AA batteries each trip as the fan can use up batteries quickly if the kids have it going a lot.
Have a great (and cool) trip!
The fans are nice if you have a scooter or stroller on which to hang them, but they do get heavy in the parks when you carry them around. I find that I only use mine at the resort when sitting by the pool with the kids. It is a short walk with fan and I can find a shady spot and mist away the day.
A pretty beverage in my hand also helps make the hot summers more enjoyable.
