Packing for Disney with a baby or toddler is a whole different game. You’re not just leaving the house for an errand—you’re committing to long park days, heat, lines, snacks, meltdowns, naps, and magic all at once.
After trial and error (and more than one "why didn’t I bring that?!" moment), I’ve narrowed down what truly earns a spot in our Disney diaper bag and stroller. Everything in this post comes straight from my Amazon list—things I’ve used, repurchased, or won’t do Disney without.
If you’re planning a Disney trip with little ones, save this post. Your future self will thank you.
How I Split Things Up: Diaper Bag vs Stroller
I don’t put everything in one place. That’s a fast way to end up digging endlessly while your toddler loses patience.
We went in January, which means Florida weather kept us on our toes—cool mornings, warm afternoons, and chilly nights. So I packed for both heat and cold without overloading one bag.
Here’s how I organize:
Diaper bag → essentials I need fast
Stroller → backup items, layers, and bulky gear
This system keeps us moving and cuts down on stress.

My Exact Disney Diaper Bag & Stroller List 🛒
Below is my full Amazon list with everything mentioned in this post, plus a few extras depending on age and season:
Packing for Both Heat & Cold (January Disney Tip) ❄️☀️
If you’re visiting Disney in January, don’t let the calendar fool you. We dealt with:
Cool mornings and nights
Warm afternoons
Wind after sunset
That’s why layers mattered so much.
Items like the travel blanket, Disney baby side sling, ponchos, and stroller setup helped us adapt throughout the day without running back to the hotel.
Disney days are long, and being prepared for temperature swings made a huge difference in everyone’s mood—especially my toddler’s.
Final Thoughts
Disney with little ones doesn’t have to feel overwhelming—even in unpredictable weather. The right gear makes long January park days smoother, calmer, and way more enjoyable for everyone.
Pack smart, plan for both heat and cold, and give yourself grace. Even the imperfect days still end with fireworks ✨
