My bet is that this is THE costume of Halloween this year. With the movie premiere falling in November last year, kids all over the globe were deprived of dressing as their favorite characters from Frozen for Halloween! Gasp! Finally…Halloween has arrived! And now we may play the...

Ready, Set, Dress Up! Okay, it’s time to get our game plan on, Mickey Fixers. We’re staring down the road to Halloween, and it’s flying in like a pumpkin that turned into a coach! One way we can get a jump start is by heading over to Disney Store’s Online Sale this...

Omigosh, look at those ears! Okay, sound the sad bells. Summer is coming to a close. But, on the upside, that means new shoes, new books, and new bags, right? If I were a kid right this second, I’d be wanting to parade the Halls of Fall rocking this multidimensional Lilo and Stitch...

Hope for your future, there is, Young Padawan. Oh, the summer slump. Those little minds come running out of the school doors, loaded full of genius-level goodness, and then they come and sit on your couch for the entire summer. One can practically see the math equations dripping out of their...

Omigosh, where was this when I was a kid?! I’m kind of completely jealous of the kids who get to play this game right now, and am considering just biting the bullet and jumping back into childhood and buying it for myself. Can you imagine getting to climb through candy forests with...

Okay, are you full-on addicted to this game yet? If not, you should give it a whirl. The app, called Disney Tsum Tsum (pronounced “soom soom”) is an easy-to-play, highly addicting game of drop-the-cute-characters-to-the-bottom-of-the-screen. I’ll be honest: I’m not...

It’s a bowl for yogurt, a bowl for cream… …it’s a bowl for oatmeal, a bowl for beans. Eating is more fun when you’re thinking about Disney World, in my humble opinion. And what happier way to be enjoying your repast than while singing the song that never ends?...

I’ve got my mind on the GOOD stuff this week! No matter where I am when in Downtown Disney, my feet always march me to the Ghirardelli Chocolate Shop before I leave. Yours, too? It’s like my shoes are possessed or something. I always make my way to BOTH sides of the place: one to...

Everything is awesome when you hydrate. You know what’s cool about this water bottle? Yes, it has a Lego Head on it, and that, in and of itself is its own level of awesome. But what’s REALLY awesome about this Lego Water Bottle is that the BOTTOM screws OFF. So, if you’ve...

Well, THIS is the cutest way to carry a cell phone EVER! But, then again, you put the face of a Totoro on ANYTHING, and I’m in! We thought we’d roll out the red carpet for Totoro and his friends to celebrate the release of what Hayao Miyazaki says is his FINAL film (Nooooo!), The...

Certainly Walt Disney made an animation oopsie once in a while… I mean, the man WAS human, wasn’t he? (Wasn’t he??) Anyhoo, it’s just sad to think he may not have had access to something as wonderful and whimsical as a Pinocchio Eraser Set. This thing’s not only...

“When life gets rough, I like to hold on to my dream, Of relaxing in the summer sun, just lettin' off steam!” I know a few of us who are feeling Olaf's plight at the moment…wishing for anything but the feel of the frozen tundra.  Well, good news, pals: We'll...

I know there are some of you out there who owned this very lunchbox many moons ago! You see, back before bentos were an option, alls we gots were these little metal contraptions to keep our lunches in. Those lunches primarily consisted of Bologna Sandwiches and Lorna Doones, on a good day....

Oooh…this isn't an option at the Downtown Disney Lego Store! Well, thanks to Think Geek and the magic of the Interwebs, we can have such coolness delivered right to us. I know a lot of little boys and girls (wait…grown-ups, too) who would love to illuminate the darkness with...
