I think my definition of "bear minimum" is different from others.
I have 3 clear Vera Bradley pouches. The following items are in those.(see list below)
So I just toss the pouches in what ever bag I am taking to the parks. Along with these pouches, there is a small makeup bag - brush, rubber bands, powder, blotting papers, lip gloss, bobby pins. And a hidden mickey and pocket guide book (don't know why i bring it - I never use it) and a filtered water bottle. Also, there is a little wallet that has my CC, ID, and Key to the World card in it.

These are small little pouch bags – Vera Bradley that are clear. I have 2 matching ones.
Bag 1:
Vanilla Spray (so I smell nice)
Sun lotion
Hand sanitizer
Shout wipes
Tide stick
Insect wipes
Wet ones
Chap stick
Kleenex
Eye drops
Visene drops
Dental floss
Sewing kit
Colgate wisps
Mints – they don’t want gum in the parks
Halls cough drops
Bag 2:
Medical Items: Band-Aids, blister band-aids, Neosporin, bug bite lotion, Advil, Sudafed, Tums, allergy meds, burn cream)
My shamwows in a zip lock. So in a zip lock, I have cut up shamwow’s – those clothes that absorb water – and zip locks. This way if we get in a rain storm, we can dry off fast.
Ponchos (from the dollar store)
Bag 3:
Autograph book and pen in a zip lock so it doesn’t get wet.
These bags are not large at all. All of these items are travel size or smaller. They are very compact and small and nearly no weight. So they toss into a back pack really easily.

I carry a small cross body purse and carry my KTW card, 1 credit card, my ID, lipstick, small brush, allergy/headache meds, band aids, and a small copy of all our ADR confirmation numbers. I believe that's it. My camera is carried seperately and my kids have their own packs or drawstring bags to carry their own stuff.

Bare minimum is usually putting my room key, ADR numbers and license into DH's wallet, my camera bag (with camera and extra batteries) and bringing one phone in case of emergency (but for nothing else). Depending on when we go sometimes sunscreen and chapstick are in that mix (stuffed into the camera bag). Beyond that... not much else!

My husband carries his camera case which is large enough, but not too large, to carry KTTW Cards, debit/credit cards, some cash, inhalers, and 2 cell phones. My boys carry water bottles w/ straps. Pretty simple.

other then the shamwows and sewing kit we have almost the same list (I may be adding that to my list when we go in Sept). I have never thought of the clear bags inside the bag though that is a great idea. I always pack emergency snacks and drinks aswell and to dig through EVERYTHING is a pain. Totally love the clear bag idea!

Wallet
Cell Phone
Room key/Park Pass
Sunglasses
My gf had all that stuffed in her purse plus a camera, umbrella, Ziploc bags to put cell phones in during water rides, another big plastic bag to put her purse in during water rides because of course she brought a God know how much it costs purse to a theme park, suntan lotion, and who knows what else. I think she put a spell on it or something to fit everything she does into it.
