Favorite Disney Activity Outside of a Theme Park

Welcome to those of you joining me from Your Highway in the Sky, and those of you who have just hopped aboard.  I am the 4th stop on our Magical Blogorail.

This month we are talking about Disney activities outside of a theme park.

I would say I am a little spoiled in that I live just miles away from Disneyland. Whenever I get the urge to go, it's just a short drive down the freeway for me, so whenever I want some Disney fun in my day that's where I head. 

I was trying to think of a Disney activity I do that isn't related to the park, and then it hit me... baking. 

I love baking cupcakes. I have the biggest cupcake liner collection you may ever see. No seriously I have thousands  of them.  

Last June when Toy Story 3 came out I made Green Alien cupcakes. I thought today I would share that post again. 

You can read how to make your own here: Toy Story Green Alien Cupcakes

Another thing I thought I would share is this site 1+1+1=1. There I found learning tools to teach my Little One colors, shapes, and numbers using Disney characters. 

My son is a little Cars obsessed, so when I saw they had Cars tot tools, I made little flashcards with them using a laminator. 

The site shows how to make lap books with the tools using a folder, but I knew something like that my son would rip up. 

What I like about laminating them is how durable they are. I can throw them in my purse, and pull them out when we are at Disneyland. My son stays interested in them because they are his favorite characters. You can also punch a hole in each laminated card, and hold them all together with a metal ring.

If you are interested in making any of these flash cards or lap books for your Little One's, here is a list of the Disney characters to chose from:

Cars

Nemo

Handy Manny

Cinderella

and Tarzan

You can click here to see other non Disney related themes too like Thomas the Train. 

So even when we're not at Disneyland...Disney is still with us and apart of our lives.

Thank you for joining me today. I hope you find the cupcakes or tot cards useful for you in the future.
