🎨🐾 Friday Favorites: Animation Experience at Animal Kingdom 🐾🎨

One of my absolute favorite experiences at Disney’s Animal Kingdom is the Animation Experience at Rafiki’s Planet Watch! 🐘✏️

I’ll be the first to admit—I have no artistic ability—but somehow, my pictures always turn out amazing! The Disney animators are incredible at guiding you step-by-step. Even my 5-year-old loved it and was able to follow along!

If your kids aren’t feeling it or get bored halfway through, no worries—Disney magic strikes again! A Cast Member will bring them crayons so they can keep busy while you finish creating your masterpiece. Don’t forget to take your drawing home as a fun and unique souvenir! 🖼️

Getting there is part of the fun—take the Wildlife Express Train 🚂 to Rafiki’s Planet Watch, where you can explore petting zoos, conservation exhibits, and more!

🌟 Did You Know? 🌟

Walt Disney World has over 25 resorts and 150+ restaurants to choose from! 🤯 With Spring Break fast approaching, planning can feel overwhelming—especially when you’re unsure which resort fits your family’s needs or which restaurants are best for picky eaters or food allergies.

Imagine this scenario:
Sara and her family were planning their first Disney vacation and felt totally overwhelmed by the sheer number of choices—where to stay, where to eat, and how to juggle reservations with park visits. They wanted to stay at a hotel close to the parks but didn’t want to break the bank. And, with food preferences and allergies to consider, they didn’t know where to begin.

That’s where we came in! ✨
A Magical Navigator helped Sara by listening to her family’s needs and guiding her to a resort that had easy access to all the parks, was within budget, and even had on-site dining options that catered to her family’s specific dietary needs. With custom restaurant reservations and park schedules, Sara’s family was able to enjoy a seamless Disney vacation with zero stress!

Let us do the hard work while you enjoy the magic! Our Signature-Level Planning ensures everything from accommodations to dining is taken care of, making your Disney vacation effortless and unforgettable. 🌟

🔍✨ Where is That Wednesday? ✨🔍

Have you ever heard of Hidden Mickeys? 🐭✨ These are subtle, cleverly placed nods to Mickey Mouse that Imagineers have hidden throughout Disney parks and resorts. They can be in the shape of three circles forming Mickey’s head or woven into intricate designs. Finding them adds a little extra magic to your trip—it’s like a treasure hunt for Disney fans of all ages! 🌟

One of my favorite Hidden Mickeys is right in the lobby of Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort! 🏝️ As you step inside, look down at the lobby floor—you’ll spot a classic Hidden Mickey worked into the beautiful tile design. 🐭🌺 It’s such a fun detail that highlights how Disney’s magic is in the little things.

💡 Pro Tip: Hunting for Hidden Mickeys is a free and magical way to pass the time while exploring the parks and resorts. It’s a great activity for kids, adults, and anyone who loves discovering Disney’s attention to detail!

📩 Let me help you plan your next Disney vacation so you can experience all the magic—big and small! DM me to start planning today!

✨ Disney Trip Recap: Day 4 ✨ Day 4 was one I’ll cherish forever! 💕 While it was long and exhausting, with over 14 hours in the parks, it was packed with fun, magic, and so many special moments. 🌿 Animal Kingdom Adventures We kicked off the day meeting some of my daughter’s favorite characters: Russell, Dug, and Kevin! 🐾💛 We walked onto some rides before taking the train to Rafiki’s Planet Watch, where we got to meet Rafiki himself! 🐒✨ We even took the animation drawing class, which was so fun. After grabbing a quick bite, we made our way to… 🌍 Epcot Magic We started with ice cream in France 🍦, then headed to the Behind the Seeds tour at Living with the Land. It was amazing to learn how Disney grows food, including those adorable Mickey-shaped cucumbers in the salads. 🥒🌱 🎥 Hollywood Studios Fun We ended our day at Hollywood Studios with more rides and a nostalgic dinner at the Sci-Fi Dine-In Theater. 🍔✨ 💫 A Magical Day We walked a lot, ate a lot, and laughed a lot—it truly was a day full of memories! 💖 Stay tuned for Day 5—our final day featuring the magic of Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party! 🎄🎅 #DisneyWorld #DisneyMagic #TravelBeyondTheMagic #DisneyParks #AnimalKingdom #Epcot #HollywoodStudios #CoreMemories #grapesodatravelclub
