It’s time to get wild!

Animal Kingdom is the most underrated Disney park in our opinion! The animals, dining options, and rides make it such a fun and unique park but do you have the right things in your park bag? Let’s talk about the four unexpected things you’ll need for Disney’s Animal Kingdom!

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.

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.

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!

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.
These 4 things will help make your Animal Kingdom day even better! Don’t forget to leave your balloons at home if you don’t want to stop by balloon day care and pack your bags accordingly.
