food IS a theme park
The cool thing about buying kitchen souvenirs at Disney World is that you’ll actually USE them when you get home from your trip! And we’ve seen some pretty awesome Disney kitchen gear recently (we loved the sponges we recently found!).
Star Wars Trading Post at Disney Springs
We’ve been spotting a lot of new spatulas in the parks recently, too!
Tokyo Disney Resort has certainly been busy since its reopening! Not only did the resort recently resume nightly fireworks and parades in its parks, but it also JUST resumed character meet and greets!

But there have been other changes at Tokyo Disney Resort, too! Three BRAND NEW attractions will open on September 28th at Tokyo Disneyland!
Disney can combine sustainability and commerce really well at times, and we appreciate it when their partnerships have those same environmentally-friendly philosophies.
Walt Disney World’s Epcot
This is why we are excited to tell you about a new licensing partnership between Disney Baby and Green Toys!
It’s the 40th anniversary of Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, and we’ve seen a lot of awesome merch already released. But the coolest and most popular items were part of the Minnie Mouse: The Main Attraction Big Thunder Mountain Railroad Collection.

And items from that collection are hard to come by: we recently saw a pretty long line in Magic Kingdom when we tried to get our hands on some of that sweet merch at Disney World.
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Well, not JUST yet. Yes, yes we know fall officially began earlier this week, but Disney seems to operate off of a WAY different calendar than the rest of us. (This is why Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party usually kicks off in August…)
Magic Kingdom at Christmas!
ANYWAY…. In keeping with their tradition, Disney recently announced the Christmas Season at Disney World begins November 6! With that kind of timetable, we may be further behind in our holiday shopping than we thought! Never fear! A number of festive holiday merch has already appeared on shopDisney, and we’re here to help you start crossing off items on your holiday shopping list!
It has been fall for 24 hours, so obviously, that means HOLIDAY SHOPPING! To help us get finished as early as possible Disney has started releasing their 2020 Holiday plush and there are already some that we know you’re going to want to have under your tree!
Christmas Decorations at Disney’s Contemporary Resort
For kids and kids at heart, this batch of plush has a little something for everyone, regardless of fandom or favorite characters! Let’s jump right into the Disney plush cuddle puddle!
With all of the new adorable retro Disney merchandise released recently AND the Twice Upon a Year sale going on right now, we’ve been adding LOTS of items to our shopping bags on shopDisney.

If you’re like us and you’re on a shopDisney shopping spree, there are one or two more items you may want to add to your bag and snag for a pretty good discount!
Although we love colorful things here at DFB, we also appreciate going old-school to black and white (or grayscale) because it reminds us of Steamboat Willie and the Mickey Mouse Club of the 1950s!

So when we were perusing the shopDisney site, as one does, we got excited when we saw the new Grayscale Collection!
The Minnie Mouse: The Main Attraction Collection of Disney merchandise is so popular that people are standing in long lines for new collections at the parks!
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad Minnie Mouse: The Main Attraction Ears
A new collection drops every month (although there was a slight hiatus this summer), and we’ve seen many of these collections sell out FAST at the parks. We’re talking like we blink and they’re GONE (although Disney does occasionally release more stock).
We’re constantly on the lookout for fashionable new Disney merch to add to our wardrobe!
Oogie Boogie and Haunted Mansion Dress
Out of all of the chic Disney characters through the years, we think that Minnie Mouse and Daisy Duck are still among the most stylish ladies to come from the “house of mouse.” And they have the merchandise to prove it!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
