food IS a theme park
Been thinking about staying on property at Disney World this year, but was hoping there would be a way to save more money on your stay? Disney just announced NEW discounts, so this could be a great time to book!
Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa
It’s not just one discount, though. No, Disney has dropped FOUR hotel discounts and 1 ticket-only discount. Here are all the details you need to know.
Disney just dropped a TON of news on us, and it all has to do with what’s coming back to Cool Kid Summer in just a few months!

The company previously announced that Cool Kid Summer would be coming back to Disney World in Summer 2026, but now we know a little bit more about what special offerings will be available during the season. In fact, we just got confirmation that one of our FAVORITE perks is returning, and it’s a big reason why you won’t want to miss out on Early Entry.
Are you someone who can’t get enough of vintage Disney decor? We’re right there with you (it’s one of our favorite merchandise themes), which is why we FREAKED when we saw this new collection land online.

Disney just dropped an entire NEW collection that’s themed entirely to vintage Disney Parks maps, and we know you’re about to be as obsessed as we are. We suggest grabbing the item(s) you like sooner rather than later, because some of them may sell out fast!
When you’re headed to Disney World, it’s important to pack everything you need in your bag. That includes the things you may not THINK you’ll need, and then regret immensely when you realize you didn’t think it’d be important.
We LOOOVE reusable straws!
Now, listen, we totally get that not EVERYTHING marketed as an “essential” actually IS one. We’ve seen it time and time again, and that’s why WE spend money on those, so then we can tell you what’s actually worth it (spoiler alert: there are a LOT out there that we’d never recommend). These six items, though? We’ve tried them all out ourselves and genuinely think they made our trips a lot better — now we want the same thing for you!
The holidays have just ended, which means a lot of us are looking at our bank accounts, going “YIKES,” and doing all we can to rebuild our savings over the next few months. We were doing just that…and then we saw this.
Care for any tea?
Now, listen, we talk about merchandise all the time here, and we get ourselves into LOTS of trouble with our own wallets because Disney merchandise is, most of the time, absolutely adorable, and we can’t resist. We wanted to save money, we TOLD ourselves we were going to, and then this new Alice in Wonderland Loungefly bag completely destroyed that, because…well, just LOOK AT IT!
It’s a good day, friends! Well, maybe not for our wallets, but anytime new Owalas are released online, we can’t help but check them out!

Owalas are some of our favorite water bottles to use in Disney World, as well as in our everyday lives. They’re super durable, come in lots of cute colors and designs, and have no problem keeping our drinks hot or cold all day. If you’re a big fan of the FreeSip style, which is thinner at the bottom than it is at the top, or the regular style, we’ve got great news for you — there are tons of new colors at Target right now!
2026 is happening NOW, and believe it or not, things are changing in Disney World AGAIN.
Cinderella Castle
If we’re being honest, that’s not surprising to us, since Disney World practically changes every week. Sometimes it’s what dining options are offered, the cost of different snacks and meals around the park, the way Lightning Lane works, parade times — the list goes on! However, as each year passes and we head into another one, there are usually some larger changes that happen that are super important to know about before the year begins. If you’re heading to Disney World in 2026, here are three unspoken “rules” (we’re calling them that, anyway) that Disney is enforcing to the MAX this upcoming year.
Is one of your New Year’s Resolutions to run (or fast walk) in one of Disney’s runDisney races? Whether you’re aiming to do one this year or in 2027, we’ve got great news!

Disney has just announced the remainder of the dates for their Disney World 2026 races, as well as the first few races on the way for 2027 (including virtual races!). If you’re planning to race, we suggest putting these registration dates on your calendar, because once tickets go on sale, it’s very likely they’ll run out fast!
Disney World is FULL of construction right now, that’s for sure, but it’s looking like one of these projects may be reaching completion.
Meal from Harambe Market
Over in Disney’s Animal Kingdom, Harambe Market closed on October 20th for a months-long refurbishment, and at the time, there was no reopening timeline in sight. Now, that may have changed. Nothing has been announced officially, but according to the Disney World website, it’s looking like this spot could be reopening in March!
In just one month, it’ll be time to officially say goodbye to one of our favorite parts of Animal Kingdom.
Dinosaur
This land began closing in early 2025 to make way for the new Tropical Americas land, but we got to experience our beloved Dinosaur attraction for another year. However, that time has come to an end — this is your reminder that in just ONE month, the rest of DinoLand, U.S.A. will close forever.
