Bringing The Disney Magic Home With shopDisney

*Gifted Products from shopDisney feature in this blog post. As always, all opinions are my own.

This year we were so, so lucky to be able to have the opportunity to not only take a holiday in Florida but to also visit Disney World for the very first time. It was a lifelong dream of mine and that Disney Magic did not let me down. I absolutely loved it and could have easily chosen every Disney plush toy to bring home with me but unfortunately, that wasn’t possible, so you can imagine my pure excitement when shopDisney got in touch to ask if we (and when I say we I mean the kids but I secretly knew they meant me too!) wanted to review some of their fantastic merchandise.

Disney firework display at Walt Disney World

Top Tips For Watching The Firework Display At Walt Disney World

When you visit Walt Disney World I think one thing we all aim to do is make it to the firework and awesome light projector show at the castle. It’s a highlight of your visit and something you’ll never see anywhere else in the world. I was literally blown away. I never expected the Disney firework display to be that good and I could have easily watched it all over again, like, immediately all over again!

This being our first time was all a learning curve. I’d heard the rumours that you need to get there over an hour early, that you need to be at the front to truly enjoy it, that you need to battle the crowds to get through and to some extent there is a bit of truth in this but there is really no need to panic over it. This is how we found it and our top tips for watching the firework display at Walt Disney World.
