Smarties and Redbull (I use the smarties to bribe the kiddos if the wait is long - they make no mess - and the redbull is to ensure the adults make it 30 minutes prior to open)

Clothes - depends on time of year - hat - light jacket - extra change of clothes for when DH makes me ride grizzly 10 times in a row - (along with shoes, socks and other unmentionables)

Sunscreen - retractable pen for the autograph book - way to download photos because I will take WAY too many. Tickets - other trip documents - and a big happy face!!!

Foodwise:
I sure wish I would've brought meal/energy bars. One night we couldn't find anyplace without a long line before the EL parade started and then everyplace was closed. Cup of noodles travel light so I would've packed that. I couldn't find any at Target when I got there. I would try and pick up the water when you get there though.

Clotheswise:
My favorite shorts were cargo shorts. Normally this style is not my thing, but it was great to have extra side pockets for maps and fastpasses. Loved my Crocs - switched back and forth with tennis shoes.

[Chickysmom]

[marjie8230]

When we recently went to DL, I didn't want to buy the kids sodas all day so we brought a water bottle for each of us and a bunch of those kool-aid single use packets. These were great because we hardly ever drink kool-aid so they thought it was still enough of a treat and we could dilute it even more than the package says and it was still good. (We had the punch flavor and I have to admit it was good.)

Definitely wear a hat if it's summer and bring mole-skin in the backpack if your shoes are even close to being new. If you think you'll get wet, you may choose to bring an extra pair of socks. (One year we had to buy DD a 2-pk of socks because she was drenched.)

I always like to bring a big sharpie so characters can sign your t-shirt. Some people have said that they aren't supposed to sign the one you're wearing but we never had a problem with it.

Have fun.

 

[talie95]

Food: bottled water/ lunch(we like to bring our own to cut down on expense and waiting in line for lunch - then we can splurge a little more on dinner)

clothing: change of clothes (just in case Splash gets the better of us), jacket (depending on weather) hats

Other: sunscreen, sunglasses, glow necklaces(I get them from the dollar store or party supply store - it's way less expensive than buying them there and it gives the kids something to play with)

 

[Stitches glitch]

Foodwise: Eat breakfast at the hotel, we didn't stay on site, but directly across the street and they offered a free continental breakfast. Bring water and something to snack on because food is expensive there. We bought a box of rice crispy treats, some slim jims and some apples and oranges. Then around 4 or 5pm we stopped and ate dinner there.

Clotheswise: a sweater for late nights/early mornings, a small backpack, sunglases, ballcap and your most comfortable pair of tennis shoes.


Can't FORGETwise: Water!! (I can't stress that enough!) Camera, a pen for autographs, advil, and sunscreen.

 

[Hound 109]

It's been mentioned by other's....but bring 2 bottles of high SPF sunscreen. In case you lose one or in the event your group gets split up. A sunburned child can ruin a disney trip.

Items that when you need them, you REALLY need them - (& you don't want to schlep to a store at 1am to get). Asprin (or asprin equivilants). Tums / Pepto (or equivelents).

& for guys. I never owned a pair of cargo shorts till i went to DW several years ago. What a tremendous "hands free" invention. Those pockets down near the knee are perfect for storing sunglasses, cameras (sunscreen?) & other stuff that would be mighty uncomfortable in a pair of bermudas.

(since i'm not a backpacker & I DON'T DO FANNY PACKS )

FOOD:
Decaf tea, crystal light singles, meal for the airplane ride, salt & pepper, crackers/pretzel and cheese singles

Two pair of footwear to trade off, Red with white polka dot t-shirt and Minnie ears, flowie top with tiara, underwear, and shorts

CAN’T FORGETWISE:
Sunscreen, extra camera batteries, ten pounds of paper (tickets, maps, schedules, lists, list and lists), wine bottle opener

 

[Goofy_Dave]

Even if you forget everything else, you MUST BRING broken in, comfy, super-soft walking or running shoes. Even with them, your feet will be sore at the end of the day. I don't want to think about what it would be like not having them. Have fun!
