Quick tip of the day

Emailed from Brittani:
"While in Mickey's PhilarMagic on my last trip, I heard the lady behind me tell whoever she was traveling with that she wished I'd take my Minnie ears off. I immediately turned around and apologized and took them off, because I didn't want them to be in her way, but I had totally forgot that I even had them on! The lady was embarrassed that I heard her complaining and apologized, but I was happy that I heard her because I didn't want my ears to get in her way. The rest of the trip, I realized how the wearing of Minnie ears could definitely get in the way of those behind you and I tried to remember to take them off whenever we were in theater-type seating. Be thoughtful and remove your mouse ears."

"I just wanted to send over a potential quick tip for your podcast. While planning my trip, I came across the Build Your Disney Family website. It allows you to create a sticker decal with stick figures of each of your family members. You can download the decal to share online and also order a print by mail for free. I imagine it could be a fun part of preparation for families or useful for a countdown calendar. Here's the site: https://www.picturethemagic.com/free-disney-decal/

Quick tip of the day

Emailed by Natalie:
"Quick tip for the Flight of Passage line - We got in the 120 min line with lots of signs saying no restrooms and you must remain with your party etc. An hour into our wait, my 8 year old decided she needed to use the restroom immediately. We were worried we wouldn’t be allowed back in line, but she had to go. If you notify a Cast Member when leaving, they will give you a FastPass to get back in lime and wait for your party at a designated area."

Quick tip of the day

This was emailed in by Brandyn M:

"I purchased a make-your-own-tattoo sheet and made temporary tattoos for my three kiddos. We got lots of compliments, and it set me at ease to know that a cast member could easily track me down if a kiddo got separated. Thank goodness we never had to use them, but it was nice to know we were prepared."

Thanks, Brandyn!
