food IS a theme park
Welcome back, DFB friends! We’re here with another What’s New at Disney’s Animal Kingdom!
Tree of Life
And, we’ve got plenty of updates to share with you. So, what are you waiting for? Let’s dive right on in!
If you’ve ever wanted to dress like a Disney princess, here’s your chance.
Under the Sea — Journey of the Little Mermaid
A few weeks ago, we spotted a brand-new Little Mermaid dress and purse over in Hollywood Studios. That dress is the next in a line of gorgeous designs by The Dress Shop featuring the Haunted Mansion, Captain America, the Tower of Terror, and more! After a few weeks in the parks, those dresses will sometimes move online, and good news: today’s the day!
Souvenirs are a great way to commemorate your Disney World vacation and bring some of the magic home.
Magic Kingdom Park 50th Anniversary merchandise
Every day Disney is releasing new plush, clothes, accessories, ears, and more (seriously, they’ll find a way to put the Disney touch on almost anything). We spend a lot of our days at the parks searching through all the stores to bring you what’s new and, we’ve seen A LOT over the years! Though there are a lot of great souvenirs that have guests shelling out TONS of money when they visit, there are also some that were more…well…unique. You’ll see what we mean!
We found a Disney sale we just have to share with you!
Cinderella Castle
We love bringing you the latest deals and discounts here at DFB. We’ve found a jewelry sale, discount codes, and even some Disney resort savings! And today, we’re bringing you the latest Disney deal on backpacks.
Disney might have a big thing with mice, but they’re big on the duck scene too.
Disney Ducks
Sure, you’ve got Donald Duck, but you’ve also got alllllll the ducks who reside in the Disney parks. We love those little guys! Now, Disney has invented some new tech that’s seriously amazing — but all we can focus on is the duck in the pictures. What does this waterfowl MEAN?
Stitch has been on a mission to crash every Disney movie he can, and this month, he’s made his way to one of the more romantic Disney classics.

If you’ve been keeping up with the latest Disney parks collection, you know that this 12-part merchandise series features Stitch “crashing” classic Disney animated films with some new merchandise (like pins and plushes) released every month! Last month, Stitch got into a rose bush from Beauty and The Beast. But this month, he’s gotten into something much tastier — and Disney is letting everyone get in on the action!
We have been taking in ALL of the scenes at the new expansion in the France Pavilion at EPCOT! Day or night, this new area is a beauty.
Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure Area in the France Pavilion
We’re convinced that if we stay there long enough Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure is bound to open at some point — right?! Though we don’t have an opening date for the new ride quite yet, we spotted TONS of new merchandise themed after the upcoming ride earlier this year. And people went nuts over it — including us! And now, we have great news for anyone looking for a new world traveling buddy in the form of a talking mouse.
The Lunar New Year will begin on Friday, and 2021 is set to be the Year of the Ox!
Year of the Ox Merchandise
We’ve already seen some merch for this Chinese celebration around the parks, from a stunning set of red and gold Minnie ears to a fierce spirit jersey!
Toy Story Land has been around for almost three years now, but we’re still totally in love with this bright, colorful area of Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
Toy Story Land
If you want to rep your love of Toy Story, you could always rock a Forky shoulder plush or a Buzz Lightyear belt bag, but if you want something a little more subtle, we spotted the PERFECT thing today at Hollywood Studios.
This year, the Daytona 500 will take place on February 14th — how…romantic?

Whether you’ll be spending the day with your sweetie at the race track or racing cars around a play mat at home with the kids, Disney is getting in on the action. They will be bringing back Pixar’s Cars Week leading up to the Daytona 500! And, this speedy week comes with LOTS of new Cars-themed toys in honor of those who will be putting the pedal to the metal!
