    Under my account I have a Magicband linked to me, and a Magicband+ linked to my son. Will I be able to connect Play Disney Parks to his Magicband+ if he does not have his own account? I want him to be able to collect the Fab 50 Quest and play the games.

    Welcome to planDisney, Kacie! Thanks so much for stopping by with your question today. I am so excited to hear about all the fun plans you have for your son and his MagicBand+. I have one myself, and I love waving at all of the golden sculptures in the Fab 50 Character Collection. You'll need the Play Disney Parks app downloaded and ready to go to complete your collection, and I'm happy to walk you through it.

    Kacie, your son does not need his own My Disney Experience account in order to have an account on the Play Disney Parks app. He is able to set up his own account with parental permission so he can connect his MagicBand+ and play all the fun games around the Theme Parks. Just download the app and follow the prompts to set him up!

    I already mentioned how much I love the Fab 50 Quest, and I have a quick tip for making sure that the sculptures pick up on your MagicBand+ when you're waving at them. In your My Disney Experience app, tap on "MagicBands and More" and tap the ellipsis next to your son's MagicBand+ to bring up the menu. Under "Settings", turn on "Increase Motion Recognition" so that the MagicBand+ becomes a bit more motion-sensitive. This is especially great for little arms so that the sculptures can pick up on their waving movements!

    I hope this answers your question, Kacie, and please let us know if there's anything else we can do to help you plan your magical vacation.
