Does someone have a good packing list that is perfect for a trip to wdw?
 
Clothes for any type of weather! We went when they were forecasting 80 and 90 degree weather and it ended up being in the 40s and 50s we were very unprepared so always bring clothes for every kind of weather no matter the season or forecast. Layers are best. You can add or remove to work with the weather and stay comfortable.

Comfy shoes. Crocs are good but they can give you blisters, tennis shoes give you blisters and take forever to dry if they get wet. I highly reccommend a good pair of flip flops with wide, cloth straps and a thick, foam sole. I have a pair of Teva's that have brought me through 5 trips so far and they are still going strong.

Clear bags. They are so much easier for the bag check points

Refillable water bottles.

Your own snacks. Make sure to get ones that don't melt.

Sunscreen. It doesnt matter what the season or weather, Florida sunshine is brutal.

Swimsuits.

Cameras and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of batteries.

Hats/ Sunglasses.

Power Strip for charging phones, ipods, laptops etc.

Garbage bags (for dirty clothes)

Chapstick

Any Medication you might need. You never know when you may be in the middle of a park and need an advil, benadryl, etc. And it is super expensive in the parks.

Thats about it as far as essentials go. Add in anything to tailor it to you and your groups needs.

Hope that helps!:)
 
Another must for me is extra clothes, especially in the summer. I always pack enough to give my layers, and a couple options for each outfit. In the summer I usually change clothes mid-day, so I have enough for at least 2 outfits a day. :)
 

Some of the unique things on my list that I bring and use every trip are :

1)Handsoap for the room
2)Over the door shoe holder - I hang it up and put my H&B stuff in it
3)Pop-up Hamper
4)Ear Plugs
5)Night Light
6)Super Glue
7)Sharpie
8)Disney Tattoos - I get them online and the kids get a new one each day
9)Disney Light-Chasers from previous trips(the kids like to have one for the parades but they do not really change from year to year so I just keep bring ours back)
10)Batteries
11)Mini Fans
12)Drink lids - got this tip from this board - we bring the disposible drink lids you get on your drinks at fast food place. When the kids get ice cream we put the stick through the lid and it keeps the ice cream from melting all over their hands.
13)Identification Bracelet - we ordered these online. They are the rubber bracelets that people always wear with special saying on them. Ours have both my husband and my cell numbers on them. The kids know to show a park employee the bracelet if they get lost.
