There’s a saying that many parents can relate to: “The days are long, but the years are short.” That seems especially true when our children are young; just making it through the day can seem like a huge accomplishment! With summer upon us, parents everywhere are searching for activities and entertainment to keep their little ones occupied — and to maintain their own sanity — without breaking the bank.

Disney Store locations nationwide — including Orlando’s only retail site at Florida Mall — are again offering a summer’s worth of free daily activities and giveaways for kids ages 3 and older. Summer Play Days take place now through Sept. 5 and feature Story Time; Trivia; How to Draw Disney, Pixar, Marvel and Star Wars characters; and Showtime, where kids can become Junior Avengers or learn the ways of the Force.

Plus, on each Wednesday between June 8 and Aug. 31, kids who participate in that day’s Summer Play Day activities can collect free Tsum Tsum-inspired wristbands featuring different Disney characters. Characters from “Finding Dory” will be the first available in June. Like the plush Tsum Tsums, the wristbands can be stacked. Here the wristband distribution schedule:

June 4: Dory
June 8: Hank
June 15: Destiny
June 22: Bailey
June 29: Nick Wilde
July 6: Judy Hopps
July 13: Mike Wazowski
July 20: Sulley
July 27: Mickey Mouse
Aug. 3: Pluto
Aug. 10: Lumiere
Aug. 17: Cogsworth
Aug. 24: Stitch
Aug. 31: Olaf

Guests who have collected all of the character bands at the end of the summer will receive an exclusive Ultimate Collector Set, which contains — Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse Tsum Tsum character wristbands. Cast members also will be distributing a limited Otter Tsum Tsum wristband spontaneously throughout Summer Play Days as a special magical moment for guests.

  1. How can you collect all the bands if you can’t make it to all the play days?

    KRISTIN: It’s my understanding that you have to attend a Play Day to collect each band.
