    It's our first trip to WDW and I'd like to make a goodie bag for the kids. I'm going to include ears, camera, Disney dollars, autograph book. Any other suggestions on what to put in it? Love your site!”

    Geri-Lyn,

    Congratulations on your first trip!  Very exciting!

    We leave in a few short days and I just got finished with my own kids' gift bags.  Beyond what you mentioned, here are a few things I tucked in:

    • glow sticks (dollar store!   These are great for night parades and shows)
    • lanyard and trading pins (these are expensive in the parks, so if you think you may want to try pin trading, save lots of money by purchasing in advance.  I bought our lanyards on eBay, and pin from www.mousepinsonline.com  You can get pins on eBay also, but be careful that they are the real thing.  Some sellers have fakes.)
    • trinkets (also from the dollar store. I like silly putty, small containers of bubble stuff, Disney figurines, doodle pads, pens and paper, etc.  Great for entertaining the kids in lines or at restaurants.)
    • Disney stickers and/or temporary tattoos (guess where I got those?  :)  yup, dollar store!)
    • Hidden Mickeys or Passporter Treasure Hunts book
    • Downloads!  I printed out Disney word searches, trivia, Epcot games, and much more from www.themouseforless.com (visit the 'downloads' section, link on the left side of the page)
    • Epcot Passport and Animal Kingdom Safari Journal

    Hope that helps with a few more ideas.  Have a magical vacation!
