Going to Disney World next week. I was looking for any products I could purchase to help me stay cool. Does anyone have any recommendations.

Those cooling neck wraps work pretty well. I can't really think of anything else that would be practical in Disney World.

Cooling towels are great. We always bring a small cooler in our stroller and keep 2-3 of them in there to stay wet. You can get small fans that run on batteries too. Again we clip them on our stroller. Wear light clothes and comfy shoes and good socks.

Plan your day well so that you don’t wait outside much. Most rides at Magic Kingdom have indoor lines now for the most part. Other parks are a little harder to stay out of the sun. Plan shows during the hottest hours of the day or even go back to the hotel to swim after lunch. That’s when the parks are busiest anyway. Get there early and stay late if you plan on taking breaks during the day.

ill be honest, we were there last july 5-8 and yes, it was hot, however, it was not near as unbearable as i was prepared for. like has been mentioned, cooling towels are good. i would also bring a couple waters in my back pack each morning. if you have the means freeze them and bring them in solid. Bring plenty of gold bond powder. good socks, and GOOD shoes. i got some adidas ultra boost when we did disney/uni in april, walked 54 miles and my feet never hurt, ever. sunscreen.

If you have some way to stow it like a stroller, a small ice chest with florida water in it, with small neck towels to soak it up.

A good hat.

Bring a change of socks for each person if you will be in the park all day, and change your socks in the late afternoon.

Dri-fit shirts and shorts

Sunscreen

Don't be afraid to take a break mid-day. Go back to your room, go to a resort restaurant, etc.

We bought these for our entire family. A 3-pack is $8 on Amazon. Kept one in my pocket for when we were standing in line or whatever. It's amazing what just a little breeze will do for you.
