A day at Disney World can be SO magical, but it can also be a LOT to handle, especially for the kiddos.

Magic Kingdom

Between the heat, the crowds, the MILES of walking, and the departure from normal routines, a day at a Disney park can be challenging for everyone. If your little Disney fan has sensory issues, adding potentially uncomfortable clothing to the mix is not ideal — an un-comfy Mickey t-shirt is STILL an un-comfy t-shirt. Fortunately, Disney has a solution: a line of sensory-friendly kids’ t-shirts that you can find online AND in the parks!

Disney World Guests Say Park Passes Make Planning Trips HARDER

By 6 Comments

If you haven’t been to Disney World in a while, you might not know that there’s now a Park Pass reservation system.

Want to “dress up” in Disney World?
