food IS a theme park
By now, you’ve probably heard the big news about Shanghai Disneyland’s official reopening date.

But you might be wondering where that leaves us here in the United States. Just how far away are our major theme parks from reopening?
With many cities and states either strongly urging or even requiring patrons to wear masks when entering public spaces like grocery stores, it’s important to be stocked up on personal protective gear for your face!
And while we found some SUPER adorable pre-made Disney masks, the demand for these items are understandably high. Folks are running into some problems with these pre-made masks; they’re either sold out or they won’t ship for weeks!

Why not save money AND time by making your very own Disney mask! We found both sewing and non-sewing step-by-step guides that you can follow to make your own face mask.
The best part is that most of these materials should already exist in your home, but if you are in need of extra fabric, we have some resources for you to check out, too!
A new line of Disney cloth face masks is now available for pre-order on shopDisney.com, with designs featuring characters from Star Wars, Marvel, Disney, and Pixar!

So we can’t go back to Disney just yet, but we can incorporate some Disney magic into our new normal! With governments and health officials around the country moving to recommend and even mandating facial coverings in public, we got to thinking: we sure would love to snag some stylish Disney face masks to wear! And we found some super cute ones!
Online shopping has basically been one of our favorite pastimes recently (#sorrynotsorry).

And, we’ve been obsessed with the adorable Disney keychains and Monsters, Inc. collections that Harveys rolled out since we’ve been chilling at home. Although Harveys may be keeping us super stylish, now they’re helping provide donations with their newest piece of merchandise!
Earlier this week, we asked our readers to search your homes and closets for any rain ponchos or other supplies that our nation’s hospitals and medical workers are in desperate need of.
Rainbow over Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort
The response was overwhelming. So many of you guys reached out to us asking for more ways you could help, which in turn inspired us to compile a list of resources and additional means for supporting our country’s heroes through these times.
As many of you already know, our hospitals are facing critical supply shortages, especially in parts of the country that are being hit the hardest.
Ponchos and Umbrellas Sign at Disney World
One of these places is New York City and recently one of our DFB readers reached out to us on behalf of the medical workers in her community who are risking their lives right now to save others.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
