    My daughter and 5 of her friends are going to visit the park for her birthday. Is there anyway I can get hats ahead of their visits or shirts so that they can were the same thing and as a keepsake? They are all 14 or 15 and three boys and three girls

    Hi, Cynthia!

    Thank you for stopping by planDisney, and happy birthday to your daughter! Disneyland Resort is my family's favorite birthday celebration destination. Make sure to stop by City Hall in Disneyland Park to pick up an "I'm celebrating" button for your daughter!

    I recommend purchasing shirts or hats ahead of time on the Disney Store website. There are plenty of cute options, including Disneyland-specific merchandise. Hover over "New & Trending," and select "Disneyland Resort" below "Disney Parks." You can also narrow your search by product type, age, size, and more. I have my eye on the Mickey Mouse Holiday Lights Spirit Jersey! It is festive and adorable!

    The holidays will be in full swing during your visit. Make sure to try the seasonal food offerings, and ride the holiday-themed attractions, such as Haunted Mansion Holiday, "it's a small world" Holiday, and Mater's Jingle Jamboree (even the big kids laugh on it!). "Believe...in Holiday Magic" Fireworks (showing on select nights) always brings tears to my eyes, although I know many older kids like to ride attractions during nighttime spectaculars when lines are often shorter. 

    Also, Tiana's Bayou Adventure opens this week! I am so excited! I just rode this incredible new attraction at Walt Disney World Resort, and I cannot wait for it to open at Disneyland. Be prepared to get wet! I always wear a poncho during the cooler months on water-based attractions (even though my kids refuse to do so!). Tiana's Bayou Adventure will use a virtual queue when it opens, or Guests can try making reservations to ride it after purchasing Lightning Lane Multi Pass. The holidays are a busy time of year at Disneyland, and Lightning Lane Multi Pass will help your daughter and her friends skip the standby lines on many attractions. As a bonus, most Disney PhotoPass digital photos are included in Lightning Lane Multi Pass, providing a perfect opportunity to get pictures of the birthday girl!

    Cynthia, I hope your daughter has a magical birthday at Disneyland Resort! We hope to see you real soon!

    Happy holidays!
