Welcome aboard, Alya!
Your son is going to have one very special birthday on the Disney Magic!
While you cannot arrange a private visit with Mickey or any of the other characters, there are endless opportunities for Meet N' Greets with the characters all day and night on the Magic. Be sure to check your Personal Navigator (the onboard schedule of events and activities) each day for a listing of when each character will be available. Then, head to Guest Services to get a birthday button for your son to wear. Characters and Cast Members love to make guests feel extra special on their birthdays!
If you haven't done so already, be sure to make a note on your reservation that you'll be celebrating your son's birthday. Though I can't promise specifics, Cast Members love to go above and beyond to help guests celebrate whatever it is they are celebrating, from birthdays to anniversaries and more. Your dining service team might just surprise him with a special birthday song at dinner.
Besides the room decorations that Disney Cruise Line offers, guests can also pre-order a celebration cake which can be served either at dinner or in your stateroom, so that would be a great way to make your little guy feel even more special. Check out the
Celebration Packages online where these order forms are available. Check out the other in-room gift options that could surprise him as he walks into the stateroom that first day too!
Another way to treat your son would be to present him with a Disney Gift Card, which he can spend in the gift shops on the Magic. I'm sure there will be quite a few souvenirs that he sees as must-have's! Finally, perhaps a special Port Adventure that is just right for him would make a memorable birthday gift, Alya!
Have fun as you continue to plan this exciting trip!
