Kids Can Stretch Their Imaginations with Peppa Pig Toys and Playsets from Hasbro

This past week the Peppa Pig Theme Park opened just steps away from LEGOLAND Florida and our team had a blast checking out all the offerings.

What’s New Disney’s Animal Kingdom: A Wild Snake Encounter, SHINY Minnie Ears, and More!

Lately, there have been CROWDS everywhere we go in Disney World — even Disney’s Animal Kingdom! Thanks to the President’s Day holiday, TONS of people were in the parks and resorts, which created some extra-long lines.

Jambo!

Despite the crowds, we braved Disney’s Animal Kingdom to check out what was new. Let’s take a look!

Animal Kingdom Merchandise Updates

Island Mercantile 

The colorful Encanto Minnie ears are restocked! If you missed them back in November, now’s your chance to grab a pair and sing ” 🎶we don’t talk about Bruno 🎶.” Will it ever get old?  🎶No, no, no, no! 🎶

The ‘Encanto’ ears are back in stock!

We’d like to formally request a pair of floral Isabela ears and cute yellow Dolores ears as well. Sorry, Bruno, but we already have a pair of rat-inspired Minnie ears.

Click here to see the Encanto Minnie ears up close!

These beautiful sequined green Minnie ears debuted in Animal Kingdom, and we’re LOVING them!

Does anyone else have a HUGE collection of sequin Minnie ears?

A person can never have too many sequin Minnie ears. You can pick these up for $29.99.

Click here to check out those bright new ears!

Riverside Depot

Some people hate fake plants, but for those of us that can’t keep a plant alive, fake plants are much easier. This new (fake) succulent plant is $24.99. It could pass as real, right?

Good luck killing this plant!

There’s also this new little cutie, which says, “be happy” on the ceramic vase. With that plant on our desk, we’ll never be sad again!

We’re loving this new home collection!

We found two limited-release MagicBands back in stock at Riverside Depot. There’s a mystical Dr. Strange MagicBand

There’s still time to grab these!

…and a cute Valentine’s Day MagicBand!

It’s SUPER pink!

You can grab it for $34.99. But hurry! There are only 1,460 in existence, and it’s out of stock online!

Animal Kingdom Additional Updates

Expedition Everest

Expedition Everest isn’t the only thing that was closed during our visit to Animal Kingdom! The Expedition Everest viewing area was closed due to a small snake in the area.

What’s up with the cones?

Maybe he just wanted to join the other animals chillin’ in Disney World! If you look closely, you can see list little head peeking up above the rocks.

Do you see his little head?

Snakes! Why did it have to be snakes!

Rafiki’s Planet Watch

The Out of the Wild store at Rafiki’s Planet Watch is gone, and a small seating area with vending machines was set up instead.

It’s…open!

You can also buy a souvenir I.D. tag or a pressed penny! Just make sure you have the correct change if you want to make a pressed penny.

Do you collect pressed pennies?

That’s it for this week! There wasn’t much going on at Disney’s Animal Kingdom, other than the HUGE crowds of people at almost every turn. Be sure to stay tuned as we share all the latest Disney news and park updates!

Demolition Begins at West Side of Downtown Disney District

After the closure of several businesses in Downtown Disney District, construction has begun on the reimagining of the district’s west side. Walls were erected a few weeks ago, but not much work has been visible.

From inside Downtown Disney District, everything looks relatively normal. The edge of this awning has been stripped.

We could see a crane behind the buildings.

There are no more signs of the AMC Theater. “Celebrate Soulfully” artwork and signage decorate the colorful construction walls.

We went around to the parking lot of the Grand Californian Hotel and got a much better view of work.

Parts of this building are being demolished, with a whole corner ripped off.

Interior walls and ceilings are now exposed.

From a closer angle, we could see two demolition vehicles.

Metal hangs from the roof where a wall once was.

Yellow foam from inside the walls is visible.

It’s a stark contrast to the other side of the buildings facing Downtown Disney District.

We spotted another crane sitting past this green scrim.

Pictured below is the concept art for the redesign of Downtown Disney District’s west side.

How do you feel about the changes coming to Downtown Disney District? Let us know in the comments.

For Star Wars fans, you’ll soon have TWO new lightsabers to choose from thanks to the upcoming Kenobi series on Disney+. Pick between the Obi-Wan Kenobi lightsaber and the Darth Vader lightsaber (which is actually available now!). You can also choose to mix and match because these bad boys are customizable.

Celebrate being loud and proud with the Penny Proud Doll from the new Disney+ series The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder. This doll can be moved into different poses and of course, she comes with her own cell phone. The Penny Proud Doll will be available to shop beginning the last week of February this year.
