The best way to visit the parks is travel light. Whenever I go to the parks I usually either bring a small clutch with my debit card, cell phone, and sunglasses inside. This saves me time having to go though bag check. This also saves me energy as I do not have to lug around a heavy backpack all day long. And it saves the frustration of trying to jam all of my stuff into the tiny compartments on the rides. Here is a list of things you may want to bring with you to the parks: Cell phone  Camera (can be skipped if you use your phone or photo pass photographers) Sunscreen Small fan (can be a good idea for kids) Water bottle (you can get free cups of water throughout the parks, but you may prefer your own water bottle) Umbrella/poncho (check the weather first) Autograph book/ pen (if meeting characters) Trading Pins (if a pin trader) Snacks (if you plan to bring some for kids) Sunglasses Hat If you plan on bringing more, I suggest renting a locker. These are great, espec
