Here’s our debrief of what we learned from all these random magical Disneyland experiences:

🪄Disneyland with kids is extra work, but extra magical!

Yes, kids get hot and tired. And they cry when they are hot and tired. No, they can’t ride all the rides. And yes, it is more expensive (more people, more money). BUT they understand and experience Disney magic in its purest form and will invite you to come along with them if you are down for the pixie dust-filled adventure.

💍Disneyland proposals are super popular and we know the perfect spot to pop the question!

Yes, you could do the traditional castle or Millenium Falcon proposal. But we think a private dinner for two at the Blue Bayou is a quiet, more intimate way to pop the question for those looking to be non-traditional. And it is the best atmosphere in the entire park!

🎉If you want amazing Disney magic, get involved with the characters (or let them get involved with you)!

We are introverts through and through over here. But! We can’t deny when the characters take extra time to gesture to us at the parades or take additional time to go on a treasure hunt with kids in Fantasyland, that’s where it happens. Where kids’ (and adults’!) eyes start to glow and smiles start to grow broader than ever before.
