    The Ultimate Epcot Itinerary

    1. Fireworks The signature bookend experience at Epcot is the nightly fireworks show, IllumiNations.  You’ll definitely want to watch this show, but since it is very popular, you’ll want to make sure that you find a spot to watch this show.  Crowds begin to gather about 45 minutes before the show, so be sure to stake out your favorite spot before the show begins! Following these tips, you can desi

    The Ultimate Epcot Itinerary

    6. Visit During the Week Even if you aren’t visiting during festival season, Epcot tends to be busier on the weekends when locals of Central Florida tend to visit the park, so we always recommend going to Epcot during the week to take advantage of smaller crowd levels.  This is especially true during festival season where wait times for a snack from an outdoor kitchen can quickly exceed 20 minutes

    Huggies Wipes

    10 Things I Always Have in My Park Bag at Walt Disney World

    5. Baby wipes My park bag is best friends with my package of baby wipes. Baby wipes are one of the most useful items ever invented. What can’t you use them for? Wipe sticky hands (the kids’ and your husband’s), wipe sticky mouths, cool off sweaty brows—the list goes on. Huggies makes really cute Disney-themed packages of baby wipes. What fun! Baby wipes—not just for diaper changing!

    Pressed Pennies

    10 Things I Always Have in My Park Bag at Walt Disney World

    4. Quarters, pennies and trading pins Behold, three of the most interesting and inexpensive souvenirs from Walt Disney World! Inside my Toy Story backpack, you will always find a Zip-loc bag of quarters and pennies, as well as a Zip-loc bag of official Disney trading pins that I’m hoping to trade with a Cast Member or another Guest. At kiosks all around the parks, you can press quarters or pennies

    Phone Charger

    10 Things I Always Have in My Park Bag at Walt Disney World

    3. Portable charger I also carry a portable charger in my park bag. I purchased mine at Best Buy for around $50, which sounds a little high for a portable charger, but you really get what you pay for when it comes to these chargers. Remember when I was a rookie—when I didn’t bring a bag into the parks? That’s the same time in my life when I bought a portable charger for around $5 to $10. And it ch

    10 Things I Always Have in My Park Bag at Walt Disney World

    2. Bubbles I carry a small bottle of bubbles in the front pocket of my Disney World backpack (tightly closed, I might add). I used to carry them for my own children. Bubbles came in handy when they grew restless and cranky while standing in a queue. Now that I have pre-teens and teenagers, I still carry bubbles in my bag, but not so much for my kids anymore. I’ve got to pay it forward. When I was

    Gum

    10 Things I Always Have in My Park Bag at Walt Disney World

    1. Gum and candy Disney World is full of magic, dreams come true, fantasy, fun and out-of-this-world attractions. But you won’t find gum at Disney World; it isn’t sold in the parks. And for good reason—remember looking on the underneath side of your desk in elementary school? Imagine if gum were sold at Disney. Parts of the parks might resemble those desks. But Disney doesn’t prohibit Guests from

    10 Things I Always Have in My Park Bag at Walt Disney World

    I’ve been to the Walt Disney World Resort in Florida so many times, I’ve lost count. That’s not the only thing I’ve lost. Years ago, when I was a Disney World rookie, I also nearly lost my mind when I found myself in the middle of a scenario in the parks for which I wished I was better prepared. Those were the days when I didn’t yet know the extreme value and importance of carrying a “park bag” wi
