Hello beautiful ladies and welcome to today's video where we're going to be talking about
00:00:05.040
how to create your very own day at Disney World at home.
00:00:12.240
I'm from Los Angeles so I've been to Disneyland plenty of times but I have dreamed about going
00:00:17.120
to Disney World for forever and in the last year I've really been hoping that maybe we'll be able
00:00:22.320
to get to Disney World this summer. Well since that's looking like less and less of a reality
00:00:26.720
I really wanted to take advantage of this quarantine time and maybe come up with some
00:00:30.800
sort of Disney World day at home. Have a whole Disney themed day and incorporate some of the
00:00:36.720
things that make Disney World so unique. So I wanted to share with you guys how I did that,
00:00:41.920
what I incorporated, what foods we ate, what we did, and how you can do this as an adult or with kids.
00:00:48.320
So let's get started. So my first piece of advice is to wear a Disney themed outfit. So as you can
00:00:54.080
see I've got this really cute t-shirt from Target and it is adorable. I love all the characters on
00:01:00.240
here and you can get a bunch of them at Target. They've got a bunch of different patterns there.
00:01:04.640
And if you have kids you can put them in their costumes if they have a Buzz Lightyear costume
00:01:08.880
or they have any of the princesses. Get them dressed up. That's the first thing you'll get
00:01:13.280
them in the mood. Put on a little pair of Mickey ears. I just have a headband because I never bought
00:01:17.760
myself a pair of Mickey ears. That was kind of what I was hoping to do this summer. So I'm sticking
00:01:22.080
with this headband for now. But I just think that getting dressed and putting on something
00:01:26.320
Disney themed is going to make you feel so much more ready for the day. Next up this one is for
00:01:31.680
if you have kids. Print out a copy of what the tickets to Disney World look like and cut them
00:01:36.480
out and then give them to your kids. And in the morning dress up like a ticket taker and have your
00:01:41.600
kids hand them to you so that when they come in it feels like they're entering the park. Next up make
00:01:47.360
a Disney themed breakfast. Now I know Disney World has a lot of different choices for breakfast options.
00:01:52.960
I know they're famous for their Mickey waffles so you can make Mickey waffles if you have a Mickey
00:01:57.760
shaped waffle iron. But if you don't then just make Mickey shaped pancakes and those will be
00:02:02.560
absolutely delicious. Make a themed breakfast that the kids will remember. Even doing that as adults
00:02:07.680
is really fun. Just having like a Mickey themed Mickey shaped breakfast is a really cute touch that makes
00:02:12.880
you feel like if you were in the park that's probably what you would do. Next up find a Disney
00:02:18.160
Spotify playlist for what they play in their parks. I'm going to link one in the description below.
00:02:22.640
They've got a bunch of different ones on Spotify and put that on and go for a walk. And let the music
00:02:29.040
kind of take you to Disney World because the music in Disney World and Disneyland is so specific and so
00:02:34.400
much fun to listen to that it'll just like take you right there. So walking around putting that on and
00:02:39.520
kind of letting yourself get into the mood will be so much fun. And if you have kids have them try and
00:02:44.880
find things around that look like they're Mickey shaped because Mickey shaped is not very difficult.
00:02:49.200
It's just three circles. So even if you want to plant those in advance and make it like into a
00:02:53.920
scavenger hunt that could be really fun for the kids. But if you don't want to do that and you just
00:02:57.840
want to go for a walk around the neighborhood see if you can spot it in the clouds or the trees or the
00:03:01.920
leaves or anything like that and get the kids ready for the rest of the day. Next up is watch ride-throughs.
00:03:08.480
So if you are interested in riding any of the rides around the world they're almost all available on
00:03:14.400
YouTube. They are 4k ride-throughs where people have recorded the entire thing top to bottom. And for
00:03:19.760
example you can see and compare the haunted mansions from around the world because you know there's
00:03:24.080
Disneyland Paris and Disneyland Tokyo and so you can see what the different theming is around the world.
00:03:30.640
And you can also just do rides that you're familiar with like Peter Pan's Flight and just sit down and watch them.
00:03:35.280
That's so much fun because it kind of like brings you right there. If you have kids put them on chairs and
00:03:41.280
kind of wiggle them at the appropriate moments if you're doing Thunder Mountain or something like that.
00:03:45.280
Or if you're doing something like Soaring Over California when you go over the orange groves spray some sort of
00:03:51.120
air freshener so it gets the kids into it as if they were on the ride. And just kind of take advantage of the fact that
00:03:57.200
so much of this stuff is available online which is so cool. Next up buy Disney snacks. Now at our local
00:04:04.160
grocery we can find the Mickey shaped ice cream bars which is so iconic and fun. You can probably
00:04:09.440
find something similar near you. As well for kids there's a lot of Disney shaped snacks and things
00:04:13.840
like that so buy those and give them to your kids throughout the day and it'll just get them really
00:04:18.160
in the mood as if they're at Disneyland and that's so much fun for them. And as an adult it's fun because
00:04:23.200
oh my gosh who doesn't love a Mickey shaped ice cream bar. Next up imitate food options that are
00:04:28.800
at Disney World. You can look online and see a lot of what they serve at Disney World and try and
00:04:33.600
replicate it at home. We just made hot dogs and baked beans and things we would think we would
00:04:38.000
probably eat if we were at Disneyland that maybe we would bring along or something like that. And we
00:04:42.640
also made a lot of the cocktails that they have there which is super fun especially if you're sitting
00:04:47.040
outside on a hot day and just taking it all in. And of course you can make virgin versions of those
00:04:52.400
drinks for the kids like a virgin pina colada or something like that. Disney World is so famous
00:04:57.920
for its food options that if you want to take the time to learn the recipes and make them throughout
00:05:02.800
the day that could be a really fun addition. Another fun thing you can do if you start getting a little
00:05:06.960
bit tired of watching ride-throughs is watching the Imagineering story on Disney Plus. It's all about
00:05:12.160
how the parks were built and it's super interesting. I'm learning a lot and it's a lot of fun to watch.
00:05:16.640
As well there are some YouTube channels that are completely devoted to Disney World. One is
00:05:20.960
all-ears.net and you can watch some walkthroughs of like the entire park with one of their
00:05:27.040
correspondence and it's a really cute thing. So I'll leave them down below and it kind of gives you a
00:05:31.680
tour of the park that's also a little bit educational because if you're planning a trip
00:05:34.960
it'll kind of tell you what you should do and what you shouldn't do. Okay so you've done the entire day
00:05:40.160
you've made it through and now you're at the end so how do you finish off? Well there are two things you
00:05:45.280
should do. One set up outside get cozy and put on the fireworks show. They have the entire thing
00:05:51.760
online on YouTube and it is so beautiful and so nice to watch outside. It'll make you feel like
00:05:57.760
you're there and it's kind of a celebratory moment for the end of the day. And now that that's done
00:06:02.880
get out Disney Plus and watch a Disney movie. Of course you can't do a Disney day without watching a
00:06:07.760
Disney movie. So find an old favorite or find one that you haven't seen yet and put that on with the
00:06:12.640
kids and just enjoy it because hey you spent the whole day at Disney World. Now it's time to actually
00:06:18.000
spend some time with the characters. Let me know if this is something you would do at home. I had the
00:06:23.440
best time doing this. It really just put me in the best mood for like two days. I just felt like
00:06:28.400
on top of the world as if I'd been there or at least as if I could do this again. Absolutely. There was
00:06:33.280
so much that I did and I didn't get tired of it. Plus it really made it feel like summer was coming
00:06:37.840
and that was so nice. So if you're planning on doing something like that, let me know in the
00:06:42.640
comments. If you've been to Disney World, let me know your favorite part because I've never been
00:06:46.560
