Note to contacts: ExtremeGB.com, the UK's leading online retailer of outdoors and adventure goods, will be producing a series of press releases themed "Everything you need to go to ….". This, the first, is themed "Everything you need to go to Orlando at half term or Easter". If you have any themes you'd like us to develop for you, then we'll help if we can.
EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO GO TO ORLANDO AT HALF TERM OR EASTER.
It's said to be the happiest place on earth, but Grumpy can often make an appearance well before the family hits DisneyWorld or any of the other parks in Orlando, Florida.
"It's a long way away, it can be very tiring for kids and grown-ups alike, and no matter how determined mum and dad are that their little princess or pirate are going to have a great time, there's always a sulk, strop or tantrum to deal with," said Edward Giles of ExtremeGB.com, the UK's leading online retailer of outdoors and adventure goods.
"Some of the time it's over what they can and can't have in the Disney shops, but a lot of the time it's down to how comfortable or content they are on their feet or in a buggy, or travelling to and from the parks themselves."
ExtremeGB has produced a list of essentials that every family should consider taking when they tackle an expedition to Orlando.
First there's the flight. Most airlines provide entertainment for kids – whether TV or games – but children can be fickle and want their own movies or games, so it may be worth investing in a portable DVD player for the flight, any long-distance driving in Florida or for in the hotel or apartment. A Goodmans DVD and game player is the answer - £99.99.

And then, of course, there's the batteries issue – and avoiding the teenage strop when the ipod or mobile phone battery fades. The solution is the Power Monkey emergency charger and its range of adaptors at around £29.99. http://www.outdoorgb.com/p/powermonkey_emergency_charger/
Next, there's the exit from the water-splash rides … and the realisation that mobile phones and portable games consoles are as wet as their owners: so better invest in waterproof cases from Over-Board.

Sunglasses and hats are also key – but they have to be cool. Vaude hats and Polaroid sunglasses will more than do the job.

And every parent can see the point coming at which all their junk becomes your junk. Solution? Waterproof backpack from Over-Board http://www.outdoorgb.com/p/overboard_waterproof_backpack/ or their very own Deuter backpack http://www.outdoorgb.com/p/deuter_ultra_bike_childs_backpack_10_lts/ As if ...
ExtremeGB also stocks walkie-talkies, child carriers, a wide range of carry and sleep equipment, bug killers, plus a vast array of gadgets and gizmos that will both entertain and make life easier on holiday in Orlando's parks.
ExtremeGB is part of the GB Group, an established online retailer providing marine equipment (www.sailgb.com), outdoor equipment (www.outdoorgb.com) and sports watches (www.watchesgb.com)
