Keeping cool, what's better?

[mamahas5]

Since we'll be in the World in July, I want to get either some fans or misters. I ordered Frogg Toggs and I know those will be helpful but I think we'll want something in addition to those. Reviews on Amazon are all over the place. Plus I would like some type of fan to attach to our stroller...any good products out there?

There are Mickey hand fans out there to attach to a stroller...I must sayI love the Frogg toggs I ordered. I put one in the stroller and my granddaughter was cool and happy The other fans, like the one target has are great, but, some of them are heavy as you have to add water to them to keep them misting...kinda heavy...

Dicks Sporting Goods has some small handheld fans with misters. They were great on our last trip. They'll clip on to your lanyards or backpack but are also small enough to put in your purse or backpack. They're easy to refill and they last a decent amount of time. Only about 4 bucks too which is nice. Disney World sells them but they're larger and I think they are 17 bucks or so.

We will be bringing our Frogg Toggs and our O2 Cool misting fans (http://www.walmart.com/ip/O2-Cool-Carabiner-Water-Misting-Fan/15992433). Don't have little ones anymore so I can't recommend a fan for the stroller.

I brought mini handheld mister fans I found on Ebay for super cheap (under $4). These worked like a charm. We filled them up before we left & threw them in the bag. If we were waiting in line for anything, they could easily be taken out. Otherwise they weren't anything we had to worry about lugging around. Also much cheaper than buying in Disney itself.

This is the most amazing product we have used. It is a miniature, portable "swamp cooler." We have two, so we can always have one charging while we use the other. The air blows out very cold, runs on portable batteries, and is compact.

Was wondering if the handy cooler is convenient to carry around in the park. I could never find dimensions on the website. Thinking seriously about buying one for our August trip. The Coleman fans used to be our favorite, but the quality has gone way down over the last few years. Thank you for your help.

It's hand held. If you send me your email I will send you back a picture of it in my hand so you can tell.

I would have to second the Handy Cooler. I got one after reading about it here. safe for the little ones and does a great job cooling.

We are going in August. I've never been during this time of year, so am lurking on this post for ideas also.

I know that I'm going to wear exercise clothes into the parks. Specifically, moisture wicking clothing. It's going to be too hot for jean shorts and cotton.
