Parents- MUST HAVES to bring to parks in stroller for baby-

[runprincess9686]

Just wanted to say thank you thank you thank you to the OP for making this thread! Being someone who is leaving in just 10 days, my mind is boggling around the thoughts of what to actually put in my baby girl's stroller when we go into the parks!

I like to bring a rain cover for my stroller just to keep it and my diaper bag dry in event of a shower while it is parked.

Spare outfit if only so I can let my kid jump in puddles when it doesn't splash other people

During the trip I tend toward a backpack over my usual diaper bag to make getting on and off buses easier.

And everything else everyone has already said

Oh, a mistake I made last time. A sipply, bottle, or kids cup of some sort is critical at animal kingdom because none of their cups have lids!

On the sippy cup note I also brought kid size silverware. My son was 18 months and this was helpful at the restaurants.

Not sure how old your baby is, but I bring:

A sippy cup for water
Bottles and formula
A clip on fan (I just got a new one off Amazon if you need a recommendation)
Sunscreen
Change of clothes
Burp cloth
Diapers & wipes
Snacks
A small toy or two
A hat
Antibacterial wipes
A binky

I also have a soft "anywhere high chair" thing that can be put on any chair to make a high chair, just in case I need it!

One other thing - make sure you take advantage of the Baby Care Centers in each park. They are a lifesaver. I spent more time in the Baby Center than I did in the parks in May, because DS was hot and crabby and we needed to enjoy the A/C! They have nice changing tables, high chairs, Disney movies playing, and all but the MK have room to play and have some freedom for older babies. They also have private nursing rooms, rocking chairs and a microwave. And they sell any and all baby gear, so whatever you may have forgotten they have! I know they have Gerber formula, not sure about the other kinds.

What clip on fan do you recommend?

Just got back. I kept most everything in the stroller and only carried a small crossbody bag and my camera.

-diaper changing station with diapers and wipes, we have the diaper genie brand and it was great. You can keep diapers and wipes in the mesh pockets and it's easy to fold one handed. Best item we brought with us!
-sunscreen
-snacks
-water bottle adaptor
-sippy cups/bottles
-strap to attach sippy cups/toys/binky to stroller
-misting fan
-change of clothes and extra diapers in a ziplock bag
-antibacterial wipes for wiping down highchairs
-disposable table liners
-fan - we had one with foam blades but DD ripped them off so I wouldn't recommend that one

I just ordered this one for my upcoming trip. It seems pretty powerful, but it is quite large! The clip is huge (holds 2 D batteries) but seems very strong/sturdy.
