you’re free to find Pluto and Chip and Dale posing outside in the nearby vicinity.
Best wait at Disney World!
The Best Place to Meet the Princesses?
This was one of the best character interactions we have!
The daily hours will also be listed on a board in your hotel lobby.
Disney Trading Pins
Disney Trading Pins are a LOT of fun!
We like to trade them with employees throughout the park.
Every time they come out they grab new ones.
We each have collections we add to.
I know there are hidden mickey pins, collections, cast exclusive pins, and what- not.
We have gotten 100 pins for $10!
Sure they arent the best pins, but you are getting them to trade, right?
Way cheaper than $5-15 a pin at the park!
)TIP >Dont wear pins on lanywards.
Disney sells pins with lanyards and they do look cook and convenient, butI wouldnt advise wearing themall.
Autograph Books
You will notice many kids have autograph books with them at Disney.
Note: There are a few characters like Sulley & Mike that dont sign their name.
Ive listed the best places to see mickey & friends and the princesses above.
In my individual park guides you will find which characters you will typically find there.
But remember characters do change or get sick.
Plus it makes the wait for parades bearable!
We found that many counter service & sit-down meals are big enough to share!
(you’re able to even share on the dinning plan!
I cant stress this enough.
Popular locations like Chef Mickeys will completely book up by 150 days out!
On our group family vacation they lost our Animal Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, and Magic Kingdom group pictures.
We didnt take any back-ups and they couldnt locate our pictures….. they are just gone.
Instead of the included CD, it now includes downloads of your pictures.
Although you could purchase a CD for an up-charge.
When you get in line tell the employee that you want a ride swap.
Magic Hours are a special perk for guests staying at a Walt Disney World hotel.
They are AWESOME and you must make use of them.
Each day one of the four parks opens 1 hours early or stays open up to 3 hours late.
), flight plans, etc.
It is nice to have it easily accessible.
For other guests you will use your park ticket.
There is a baby care station at each park.
you could even buy a diaper if you ran out.
Bring These from Home and SAVE!
Plus my kids think they are pretty cool!
or take a swim in your hotel pool.
Your hotel has a lot of magic to it as well you might want time to explore it!
Plus if you got a refillable mug you’re free to get well hydrated in the process.
No its not just to look good in pictures (although it is striking).
Another tidbit is to make/order bracelets with your phone number.
What is a Pal Mickey?
Disney does not sellPal Mickeyanymore, but they still work.
He is a Mickey with super cool features.
When you walk by rides it will shake if you push him he will tell you an interesting tidbit.
Pal Mickey remembers and will not repeat himself on your trip.
He also gives tidbits when characters are nearby or s parade or show is beginning soon.
This toy is super hand & fun to have!
I got ours for $15, but most of them seemed to go for $75!
Then they can earn money to buy what THEY want at Disney.
If they dont earn that much they have to pick something smaller.
It is a good lesson in economics!!
Check out these great32 FREE Disney World Souvenirs.
It is a great way for kids to get excited.
Here are theMovies to Watch before a trip to Disney Worldsorted by park & most important to least!
SO GLAD WE DID!
It was so much fun!!
Other than the infant size, all other ones are going to fit everyone.
It will fit kids like a hat and adults like a beanie, but it will fit!
There is an elastic strap (not noticeable & actually quite comfy) that will hold it on.
I got a princess & a pirate for $5.95 total!
