Welcome to the Disney Parks Moms Panel, Kim!
If there is ever a place to celebrate a special birthday in a magical way, it’s the Walt Disney World Resort, where the magic is endless! I’m excited to learn you are planning a visit to Disney’s Animal Kingdom for that special day. I bet it will be a wild time!
Kim, there are many ways to make a birthday celebration extra special at Disney. The first thing I'd recommend is getting a special celebration button. These complimentary buttons can be found at your Disney resort hotel concierge or front desk, at guest services, and at many merchandise stores throughout the parks and Disney Springs. These buttons alert Cast Members about your celebration and you never know what magic can come your way!
Another great way to celebrate a birthday is with a special birthday meal.
Booking a reservation at a favorite restaurant, especially the super fun character meals, are always a blast and the characters will make sure to celebrate the guest of honor. You can make these as early as 180-days in advance. You can also order a special cake to be delivered to the table at certain restaurants. Yum!
Another magical surprise you can plan is an
in-room celebration. Get your Disney Resort Hotel room decked out in birthday fun so when the special guest arrives, they get a super magical surprise right in their room!
Kim, I hope these ideas get your going as you continue to plan your magical visit to the Walt Disney World Resort. Be sure to come back and visit us again soon for more tips and advice for your upcoming trip.
See you real soon,
Emille
