Have you guessed that the lovely people at The Disney Files are also iPhone addicts? Yes, 3 out of 4 of us are iPhone lovers and you can bet we’re working on #4. That’s why when I stumbled upon these lovelies I couldn’t figure out how I had lived without one thus far! A jack plug for my iPhone! We all need one of these and how much cuter can they be?! I am now obsessed with having all of them. I currently have both the Minnie Mouse
and the Minnnie Bow. Yes I’ll be adding to my collection for sure!

Who doesn’t love the word FREE! I’m a little late to the party with this, but hot on the success of the FREE Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Road Rally Appisode and Jake’s Never Land Pirate School App, Disney just launched 3 additional FREE apps for the iPad, iPhone and iPod touch: WATCH Disney Channel, WATCH Disney XD and WATCH Disney Junior. These 3 FREE apps will allow you to take full episodes of your kids’ favorite Disney Channel, Disney XD and Disney Junior shows with you wherever your summer travels take you this year. A selection of full episodes from Disney Channel favorites including “Good Luck Charlie,” “Shake It Up” and “Phineas and Ferb,” Disney XD’s “TRON: Uprising,” and Disney Junior’s “Mickey Mouse Clubhouse” and “Jake and the Never Land Pirates” will all be available. If you’re a Comcast customer, you get an added bonus. You will be the first to be able to access a LIVE stream and next day episodes from each of the networks online or from the apps anywhere, anytime you can access WiFi.
Don’t have an Apple device? That’s OK! You can WATCH online as well at: www.WATCHDisneyChannel.com, www.WATCHDisneyJunior.com, and www.WATCHDisneyXD.com.
The first of the free apps, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Road Rally Appisode brings viewing, learning and interaction together into one fun-filled iPad experience. Fans 2-7 years old can touch, tap, shake, swipe, drag and talk through an entire episode of “Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.” The activities presented in the “appisode” include valuable counting, critical thinking and problem solving skills.
Using Jake’s Never Land Pirate School App, kids can become completely immersed in Never Land, completing pirate-themed challenges presented in Sailing, Pirate Band, Map and Spyglass and Pixie Dust classes. Features include: hunting for doubloons on Doubloon Beach; a customizable pirate certificate signed by Jake; and the ability to import a child’s photo.
I’m a realist, my kids are iPad addicts, at least they are learning something educational now!
All these apps are available for FREE from the App Store on iPhone, iPad and iPod touch or at www.itunes.com/appstore/.

As expected, following Disneyland’s recent increase in prices, Walt Disney World has followed suit with prices going up this Sunday (June 3rd). To see the new pricing please visit: http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/walt-disney-world-resort-ticket-prices-2012/ while this list has a LOT of information including pricing for parking, stroller rentals etc., to help you budget your visit accordingly, it is missing a few key things.
The prices listed do not include the 6.5% sales tax charged. In addition special pricing for Florida residents like the Disney Florida Resident Weekday Select Pass or the Epcot After 4 passes are not listed.
What I do love about this chart is the listing of the Disney Resorts and their classifications.
You can still purchase tickets at the 2011 prices until then. The best value if you’re a Magic Your Way fan, is to purchase them now. They do not expire until 14 days after the first use, meaning you can buy them now and use them years later. It’s definitely hard to plan for the future with deals like Free Disney Dining popping up every now and then, but sometimes planning head can really save you a LOT.
We’ll be posting shortly a guide to Disney Ticketing and what we think is the best value.

So “A” and I were wandering the mall shopping once again for an upcoming birthday party and we strolled into LittleMissMatched. I have always loved the concept and “A” has a dozen or so littlemismatched pairs — sounds like an oxymoron doesn’t it? Simply too cute for words is what they are.
What do I see at the corner of my eye? could that be Miss Minnie?! Oh my indeed it is!!! I don’t know how long this collaboration has been going. It has been some time since I walked into a LittleMissMatched store and I may be a little late to the boat, but how darn cute are these?!
They’ve got not just socks, but cute accessories like the mini shoulder bag. Oh I’m just finding more and more ways to keep the magic alive… We had to get the Disney Bundle as “A” recently lost her most precious charm bracelet with 5 Disney charms on it. We’re still reeling from the devastation. This should make a small dent towards happiness again.
