Originally we saw this balloon glow wand at Disneyland, but we are so happy to see it here now as well. It lights up red, blue, or green and has some great sound effects.

The chilly, winter weather has us calling for the warmth of indoor shops. We are walking through World of Disney at Disney Springs and found a new “Star Wars” button up shirt, a tie-dye sweatsuit, and a few new youth clothing items.

This new droid pin set looks curiously familiar. It mimics the same droids that sit outside the Droid Depot in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. We found this set at Star Wars Trading Post.
