Easy Disney-themed ideas for your Elf on the Shelf

Posted on
It's the return of the Elf on the Shelf shenanigans. The day after Thanksgiving marked the start of Elf Scout Return Week, the time when most families welcome back their scout elves or adopt new North Pole helpers. Our elves, Sugar Plum and Blizzard, usually arrive the day after Thanksgiving and true to form, they showed up for our North Pole Breakfast. You're never too old to have the elves help kick off the start of the Christmas season!

One family’s experiences at Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party

Posted on
Even in Orlando, guests and residents alike can dream of a white Christmas. But the closest we may come to that impossible feat in the Sunshine State is at Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party at Walt Disney World, where it "snows" on Main Street, U.S.A., and guests enjoy hot cocoa on select dates in November and December.

How to maximize your time at 2017 Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party

Posted on
Mickey's Very Merry Christmas Party only lasts for five hours - from 7 p.m. to midnight - so you'll need a strategy in order to do most everything that's important to your group. It's unlikely that one family can do everything during that time. But your party ticket allows you to enter the Magic Kingdom at 4 p.m., even though most party activities do not start until 7 p.m. You can use those three hours to really maximize your party time by experiencing other holiday entertainment, riding attractions, getting in line for rare characters and more.
