This is something that we never leave home without. You can fit a pack-n-play or sleep cot inside, and it gives a cozy, blacked-out space for your little one to sleep. It has special compartments for a fan and baby monitor for safety. This little miracle tent allows our toddler to keep his bedtime while letting the adults stay up with a book or TV. We can't recommend it enough!

Disney can provide you with a crib or pack and play, but they are subject to availability. So, instead of keeping our fingers crossed, we simply travel with this lightweight travel crib. It folds easily, is lightweight, and is very compact. Plus, it is a breeze to set up and disassemble. It gives us peace of mind that our sleeping arrangements will be set when we arrive.

We can't tell you how many times our wifi baby monitor has burned us when we travel. Instead, we now travel with this one and are obsessed with it. The setup is easy, with no wifi or bluetooth connection needed, and we can clearly see the pack-and-play. I love how the screen's brightness and volume can be adjusted, too, since we are in the same room. Plus, it fits perfectly in the SlumberPod!

This is a great small fan that fits inside the SlumberPod. It has three speeds and puts off just the right amount of air for circulation. The swivel design allows you to control where the air is directed.

Ok, hear me out...one of our money saving tips includes bringing your own water bottle to the theme parks. Purchasing bottled water can get so expensive over your stay and making sure your little one is hydrated is very important. But after a few days these bottles start getting grimy...espcially the toddlers. Does anyone else's toddler get a million food particles in their cup? So I LOVE having these soap sheets in our room. They are compact and easy to work with. One sheet will clean several bottles or snack bins. Then you have a fresh and clean water bottle to use each day without a huge mess in your bag!

This is the sound machine we have been using with our little one since birth and we love it. It's affordable, has great sound quality and travels well. And we love the night light function! It's perfect to cut out any noise from a neighbor or the hall. Honestly, we travel with this even when the toddler isn't with us!

This is another one that seems a little odd but trust me, you are going to want this. Especially if your child is still in diapers. The Disney trash cans are small and never come with a bag in them. As of right now, they are not changed daily and the smell of dirty diapers and other childhood things ruins the magic. We love stashing these in our suitcase to help cut down on the smell! Once filled and tied, the smell is so much better than a bunch of diapers or food sitting in the room.

Bath time is a chore in a hotel room. Many rooms have showers only now. We have started traveling with these awesome bath toys, which keep our little one occupied while we get him clean. Some kids are scared of the shower, and these toys offer a welcome distraction. And some kids (like ours) think the shower is a splash pad, so these help keep him from drenching us!
By: Mustela
Disney provides great shampoo, body wash, and conditioner in each of its rooms, which the adults in our group always use. But it will burn if you get it in the little ones' eyes—badly! So we always travel with this set from Mustela. It's very gentle on the skin and has the best light scent. Plus, the wipes are perfect for touch-ups on the go!

I forgot these on our last trip and was kicking myself the entire time. You forget how messy little ones can be in a small space. These easy wipes are great for keeping your room tidy in between "mousekeeping" visits. From lotions and contact solutions in the bathroom to spilled milk and pretzel crumbs, these wipes get the job done and smell nice while doing it!
Poke-A-Dot Book By: Melissa & Doug
I always have a small bag of what I like to call "think" toys in our resort room. After spending the day in a stroller and sitting in rides, I find that my 2-year old always needs to let off some steam when we get back to the resort. If a resort playground isn't an option then I like to have mentally stimulating toys in the room. We love these poke-a-dot books as well as activity boards, buckle pillows, and magic ink markers.
