If you’re starting to pack for Disney World and staring blankly at your suitcase thinking, “Wait, where’s the actual list of things moms need?” - this episode is your new BFF.

Today, I’m sharing exactly what to pack for Disney World - not the Pinterest-perfect, curated-for-flat-lays kind of Disney packing list. I’m talking about the real-life, mom-of-three, survived-blisters-and-slushie-spills kind of essentials. 

We’re going beyond ponchos and tennis shoes and getting into the unique things to pack for Disney World that truly make our trips feel laid-back (and a tiny bit less chaotic).

In this episode, you’ll hear:

  • Why chewable cough medicine must be on your Disney packing list (and why you won’t find it on property)
  • Why I swear by a simple sketchbook for autographs, restaurant entertainment, and magical meltdown prevention
  • How a collapsible tote saved my sanity during a stroller fold-down panic - and why you should always include on on your Disney packing list
  • The bandana I use in three genius ways that make me feel one tiny step ahead of the chaos
  • My go-to straws that beat Disney’s paper ones (no shade, but have you ever tried to sip a slushie with one??)

If you’ve ever wondered what to pack for Disney World to make your trip smoother, easier, and a lot more magical, this episode is your shortcut. I’m spilling the low-key genius things I always pack for Disney - and why they’re now permanent fixtures on my Disney packing list.

So now I want to know - what are the unique things to pack for Disney World that you never leave home without? Let me know your thoughts over on IG:  @somewhereworthwhile.
