Baby's 1st Hair Cut at Magic Kingdom - Disney World

I can't think of any place better to get Baby's 1st  Haircut than Disney World.

Getting our son's first hair cut at the barber shop in Main Street USA at the Magic Kingdom was awesome.  Even though we had to stand in line for a long time it was worth it.  (Tips for the line)
To keep the kids from moving all over the place they stick stickers all over the smock and their clothes.  The kids focus on moving around or taking off the stickers.

She spent a fair amount of time with us and did not rush us at all.




When they were done they gave him little Mickey ears to wear. On the back of the Mickey ears it says 1st Haircut.  They also gave him a keepsake certificate and wrapped his hair up for me to keep.  All of this for only $14!

8 Ways to have a blast at Mickey's Not so Scary Halloween party!

Here are a few tips to make sure your family trip to Walt Disney World's Mickey's Not so Scary Halloween party is wonderful for the whole family.

1) Don't bother taking in bags or buckets. They have bags you can use and they are more than enough to hold your goodies and if it isn't they will just give you another bag.

2) Everyone in the family can dress up including the parents. ALL the kids will be dressed up! If you don't bring your child in costume you will end up at the store buying a $60 one by the end of the night!

3) Dress for hot weather.  Do not assume because it is evening time that you will be okay in a hot costume.  Orlando does not cool that much in the evening in October.

4) Don't be a candy regulator.  I saw several parents getting on to their child and making an issue about how much candy they were eating.  One mom told her child only 3 pieces and then that was it.  You are at Disney World and they are throwing candy at you.  Do not damper the fun by making an issue out of it.  I can tell you from watching those families it wasn't worth it. 

5) Get out there and dance!  No one knows who you are, so who cares what you look like when you dance!

6) Get there by 3:45 PM.  This way by the time you park, ride the shuttle and take the tram into the Magic Kingdom you will able to get right in.  By getting there early you insure that you will have time to ride several rides before the dance parties begin.

7) Do not miss the parade.  It is a fabulous villain parade and it can only be seen at this party.

8) Do not sit to close to the castle for the fireworks.  If you do you will not be able to see the fireworks.  The best place to sit is to the right of the castle towards Tomorrowland.

Magic Kingdom - Mickey's Not so Scary Halloween Party

This year we decided to go to Mickey's Not so Scary Halloween party and it was awesome!

We were able to get into the park at 4 PM, so we had time to ride some rides and snap some photos.

Then at 7 PM the character dance parties started. We went to both dance parties. One dance party had Stitch, Pluto, Goofy, and Chip and Dale. The other dance party had Minnie, Mickey, Donald, and Daisy.  At both you have tons of time to dance with the characters. Most of the dances were the kind with set dance moves, making it easy for your kids to follow along.

At one there was a hula hoop contest, which I won against all the other moms!! (Bragging)

Their a special show where the Villains sing and dance in front of the castle. It can only be seen during Mickey's Not so Scary Halloween party.

Of course they have special Halloween fireworks. We made the mistake of sitting right in front of the castle to watch them. This is not a good spot for firework viewing.

There were many of places to trick or treat throughout the Magic Kingdom. We left with loads of candy and new toothbrushes! They provide the bags, which was lucky, because I left the buckets in the car!

Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party Parade

 They also have a special Halloween parade that was really well done with floats you will only see at this party. All the characters are dressed up in costumes for it. It was a really long parade and they hand out candy to the kids during it.

We had a wonderful time and I highly recommend going to one of their events like this.
