Hiya Katelyn,
Oh Boy! How exciting to welcome a fellow Bay State resident to planDisney. It sounds like you will be celebrating a very special birthday at the
Walt Disney World Resort. We celebrated all three of our kids' first birthdays at Disney, and I can say from personal experience, they were our most magical vacations.
While I cannot guarantee you will be able to find a Mickey Ear birthday hat in toddler size during your visit, as merchandise changes and sells out, what I can tell you is you can get youth and toddler-sized Mickey Ear hats that can be embroidered at certain locations. Two locations to visit would be
Disney's Wonderful World of Memories at Disney Springs and
Curtain Call Collectibles on Main Street, U.S.A at Magic Kingdom Park. Alternatively, I recommend stopping in the
World of Disney at Disney Springs and checking with one of the helpful Cast Members who may be able to help you locate a birthday hat if one is available in a youth or toddler size. There are definitely younger Mousketeer sections of the store full of whoozits and whatsits galore, so it would be a great place to check.
I am sorry I can't guarantee you will find a specific birthday hat for your little one during your visit. But I hope these recommendations can help you get something that will commemorate this very memorable occasion. Do stop by Guest Services so you can pick up your complimentary Celebration Button when you arrive, to help Cast Members know it's a very special trip and wish you all a very Happy Birthday indeed.
If you need any additional help planning your pixie-dusted trip, I'll be happy to help you, Katelyn. Remember, you've got a friend in me!
Ta Ta For Now,
Keri
