will we need misting Fans for the begining of May?

[Jareds_mommy]

we have been in Dec and froze and last Oct we had to buy the fans
what do you think about May should we pack them?

We went last May, over mother's day and it was pretty hot. We used our misting fan everyday. I would definitely take them.

 

[Jareds_mommy]

thanks I will make sure I add it to my growing list

 

[Taylor'sMom]

yep! We always use ours late-April, into May.

 

[Mrs. Charming]

Yeah, definitely. If it's not hot enough, just leave them in the room. We were there last May, and it was super hot-- record temps in the high 90's!

We went mid April last year and didn't think we would need them...I actually bought a fan from Walmart before hand b/c I knew it would be much cheaper than the parks and ended up returning it thinking I was overthinking my packing....Definitely ended up paying out the rear for a fan in the park while waiting for the parade to start!!!

We went last year the end of April/begining of May and we used ours a bunch! Going the same time this year and taking them along for sure!

I never think a misting fan is ever worth having. It's big and easy to leave somewhere and doesn't help that much.

Last time we went to Disney, we brought with us a 4 year old with a medical condition who has trouble in the heat. She had a misting fan but didn't use and and ended up losing it or getting in trouble for spraying other people or something (I don't remember).

Where do you find a misting fan?

If you felt that you needed them in October, then you will definitely need them in May.

Not necessarily, this last October was CRAZY hot! Seriously, record breaking temperatures. I think the one day we were at Epcot, the heat index was up to 114!!!

We usually go in May, and I would say if you have the misters bring them. It can be chilly in May or it can be really hot!

I'd also like to know where to find them and the cost? THANKS!!

 

[Jareds_mommy]

in most of the gift stores in the parks they had tubs of ice with them in there and they were about $13 I got some at walmart in canada too and they were about $8

 

[Jenny-momof3]

We paid $18 for one in the park. Got smart and bought the rest of them at Walmart for $5 each!

Where in Wal-mart are they located & how big are they?? We are planning on carry-on luggage only this trip, so every inch counts!!!

We went last year in late April/Early May and DS 5 used it the whole time.

We found ours at Wal-Mart either in the camping section or near the actual fans. As far as taking in a carry on, it is pretty bulky (maybe 9 inches tall?).

We've taken them on 2 trips.
Most of the time they hang on the stroller unused. After the 3rd day they don't even leave the room.
Disney has water features everywhere. And it rained so much on our last May trip.
