4 Unexpected Things You’ll Need If You’re Visiting Disney’s Animal Kingdom

Each Disney World park is different! Animal Kingdom requires a few essentials that you might not think about when you’re packing for your Disney trip. First up is the Animal Kingdom Explorer Kit.

This kit is an adorable way to really get your kiddos into the spirit of this theme park. It comes with a compass, whistle, hat, bag, Swiss Army tool, and binoculars! This is the perfect way to search for animals during your visit and we think it could even be a cute gift to surprise someone with the morning of your park visit.

Next up on our list are the Sukeen Cooling Towels. This four-pack has saved us many times in Disney World but especially Animal Kingdom.

Animal Kingdom is roughly 10 degrees hotter than the other Disney theme parks on average so anything to help keep us cool is a must. The dense vegetation around the park creates a “rainforest effect” so you’re gonna need to cool down.

To continue our Animal Kingdom necessities, we’re embracing the spirit of conservation with these Silicone Reusable Straws.

This straw pack comes with 12 straws, 4 carrying cases, and 2 straw cleaners so you can share them with your entire travel party. Disney World uses paper straws at most restaurants so if you’re like us and want to avoid that, bring your own straw!

Finally, if you really want to protect your personal items, this Water Proof Fanny Pack is perfect for you.

Kali River Rapids is no joke when it comes to getting wet! Disney does offer free lockers near the ride but if you’re someone who just likes to keep your stuff with you at all times, this is a great solution. It protects your important items and keeps them close at the same time.
