I'm working on a list of items to have delivered to the resort in May. We have 4 kids in the group under the age of 6 and it would be great to have some consumable things delivered. We are staying Poly CL so don't need quite as much in the way of snacks but we will not have a car (and prefer not to have to go to the store while there).

So far I've thought of diapers, wipes, pull-ups, sunscreen, hand sanitizer, applesauce pouches, snack bars, ZipLock bags, disposable snack containers. Anything else you find helpful for kids age 13 mos. - 5 1/2?

Also, we do not have Prime Now in our area but I know Orlando does. Is there a reason to choose Prime Now over Prime? We are not ordering perishables.

I do not have an answer but I am also curious to know!

in regards to sunscreen, I am ordering the sunscreen packets/wipes, based on suggestions. Smaller and easier to pack, without the chance of spilling. Bottled water, if you're not used to FL tap or don't have a filter (I personally order Nestle, as it is bottled out of FL). Capri sun or juice pouches. Whatever you use for kids' upset tummies.

Just be aware that if you get juice pouches with straws you can't use them at Animal Kingdom (they have a no-straw policy). I would go for water along with what you've already listed and maybe some flavor packets for when you refill, because even though Disney is magical the water is far from it!

Maybe pump hand soap and basic meds (Motrin, Tylenol) and first aid stuff (moleskin, bandaids, blister friction blocker)

We're doing bottled waters, capri suns, bananas, milk, granola bars, nutrigrain bars, small thing of coffee creamer of our liking, hand soap, sunscreen, danimal yogurt drinks and maybe a couple other things. We're packing medicine in our luggage since we have a ton on hand already.

We do Prime Now so that we can get perishables. I get all the items you mentioned as well as bottled water, milk, yogurt, string cheese, bagels, cereal, juice boxes, soft drinks, fresh fruit. I know you may not need the snack items, but I know my kids always want milk. Bottled water is a must for us too.

Not sure why I didn't see this last week...Prime items take 2 days to ship (sometimes longer), PrimeNow you can basically hit purchase when you land and it's generally delivered within the hour. I think once you hit 35 dollars, the delivery is free with PrimeNow

Prime now is the way to go if you want produce and whatnot. We did regular Prime Pantry last trip and was able to get everything you mentioned in your initial post. I will do Prime Now on our trip next month as I want to be able to get bananas and other fruit that is just more expensive at the resorts. But bottled water, yogurt, granolas bars, And other quick snacks for the parks: goldfish, pretzels and popcorn to toss in my backpack. Super important to have something on hand while waiting in a line and the child gets crabby because they are hungry.

what are these sunscreen wipes you speak of? I have never heard of them but they sound amazing!

There are a couple of options. If you're like me and enjoy the pasty white look all year, this is easy to pack: Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Face & Body Stick Sunscreen Broad Spectrum Spf 70. It's a sunscreen in a deodorant type stick. Just rub that all over!!

Banana Boat Sport Sunscreen, SPF 30 Protection lotion, Travel Packets 24 Packs, is the highest rated on Amazon, but, it's only 30 SPF.
