What do you use instead of fanny pack

[Cshel85]

I use to use a fanny pack years ago, going back now with huband, 10 year old and 14 year old and trying to figure out what to carry my camera, etc in while I am in the park or water parks

Find a small backpack that has compartments for your ID, passes,credit cards, and money. Get one that holds at least one bottle of water a small camera and your phone. You don't want to have a lot of weight on you in the Florida sun. It also makes getting onto the rides a lot easier. No big bulky bag to mess with. Besides your kids sound like they are old enough to carry their own bag too. That's always a plus when the kids get old enough to help themselves. Have fun.

I bought THIS Kipling crossbody bag for the parks. It has 3 separate zipper compartments that have a ton of room. I usually carry a 16 oz water bottle, 3 oz contacts lens solution bottle , iPhone (in bulky Otterbox), Kipling tri-fold wallet and camera. It's a very lightweight nylon that seems to dry fast if it gets wet and the strap is very good quality.

Cargo shorts

Drat! You beat me to it!

Cargo bermudas and cargo capris in my case. I can fit my phone, a small camera, a small piece of moleskin, a dollar tree rain coat (if we're going to be at AK), lip balm, my ID, KTTW card and Photopass card in my cargo bermudas/capris. Everything else I can get at the park or do without!

I use a small cross-body purse. Much more flattering than a fanny pack!

I use a small drawstring bag/backpack. It doesn't have a lot of compartments but it has worked great for us. Plus it is small enough to take on the rides.

I second the cross-body bag, there are so many different sizes that you can get to suit your need, and they are, again, also a lot cuter than a fanny pack!

I use a sling pack. Mine is green instead of olive

It fits a water bottle, my phone, wallet, epipen and extra pair of flip flops quite easily with extra space and it is light! Also this is a small bag, just a bit taller than my iPad and snug I terms of width.

This seems the perfect size for me! What brand is it, if you don't mind??

I was just there in the beginning of May with my DH, two seven year olds and a 3 year old birthday boy. My DH always wears a fanny pack but didn't have to since my new bag could handle everything we needed.... camera, video camera, passes, money, wipes, and random snacks.

I will never go to Disney or any other vacation spot without it! Loved it!!

I bought a mesh vest. Similar to a hunting vest or a photographer's vest. Lots of pockets to store things in and you don't have to carry it- you wear it. It would work best in the non summer months because it can be hot.

 

[Sadie22]

The fanny pack I bought years ago when we took the kids still works fine. I'm a lot bigger around the waist, too! Everyone carries their own stuff. I can wear it on my fanny, in front of me, or sling it over my shoulder. The water bottle hangs off of it with a carabiner.

Baggallini! Love it!

I am taking my small Vera Bradley backpack. It's only going to be the hubby and I so we don't need anything large.

 

[Disneyfreak616]

Vera backpacks!

Fanny Pack.

Instant access, nothing hanging shoulder, dont have to make people behind me wait in line while I remove it to get on ride-obtain KTTW card-sunscreen-money-sharpie-etc, carries everything one should need for a day of fun at the park.

I discovered the Patagonia Atom sling pack last summer. Hands down the BEST park bag I have ever had! It is light and comfortable. It carries a lot more than it would appear but I never felt the weight of it. My baggallini had begun to rub my shoulder in the same place and it was not comfortable anymore. I didn't have a moments trouble with the atom bag. Highly highly recommend!!
