Here we are.  If your household looks anything like ours……we're hungry for new entertainment options.  I'm scouring the Disney Plus releases each month, and love that they're still rolling out new movies, shows, and docuseries.  As new series were being announced, one caught my eye.  Now you guys know we are HUGE Animal Kingdom fans (we even have a whole guide to the best rides at Animal Kingdom for families).  The Magic of Disney's Animal Kingdom.  A docuseries that promises an actual behind the scenes tour and look at Disney’s Animal Kingdom® Theme Park, Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge and The Seas with Nemo & Friends at EPCOT. And to top it off? The narrator? Our favorite snowman……Olaf himself, Josh Gad.

Magic of Disney’s Animal Kingdom: a full review

The details? This is an unscripted series.  Think reality television, but with the ANIMALS as the main characters.  It gives us a serious glimpse into the amazing experts who work behind the scenes at Animal Kingdom and allows us to learn more about the conservation efforts that are truly the heart of this Walt Disney World property (does it get any more magical than THAT?).  There are eight episodes and each features a different animal focus and location.

I recently had the opportunity to participate in a REALLY cool press event, we got to witness a behind the scene chat about the making of this docuseries AND to preview all eight episodes.

Magic of Disney’s Animal Kingdom: Is It For Kids?

So.  Is this for kids? Or more of an adult must watch?

Overall Feelings: If you love Animal Kingdom……this is going to be a binge watch it in one day type of show.  I love love love that we get to know the humans who love and support the amazing animal residents of Animal Kingdom.  We learn more about the conservation projects behind the scenes at the park, and it's SO fun to see from this perspective.  Now I can't WAIT to head back to Animal Kingdom and took take a closer look at what we can see from the guest perspective!

What Ages Is It Appropriate For?: Episodes are fairly short (about 35 minutes) and the visuals? STUNNING.  Who doesn't love learning about wild animal care and seeing their habitats.  I think this is an all ages show, younger kids will probably enjoy seeing the animals and move on….while older kids an adults will be much more interested in animal behavior.

My verdict? Definitely a must see.  This is perfect for a family distance learning break, and bonus if you've visited the park in person!

Magic of Disney’s Animal Kingdom movie is streaming on Disney+ starting September 25!

    I love this! After all of the Zooming my kids do it feels weird to sit down and watch tv…but sometimes that’s EXACTLY what we want to do. I love that Disney+ has so many great entertaining, engaging, AND educational options. (We also love Emily’s Wonder Lab on Netflix). Mostly o appreciate getting a bit of a break without feeling guilty…total win for everyone in our house.

🎉HAPPY REOPENING DAY TOONTOWN!!!!!🎉⠀ ⠀ W 🎉HAPPY REOPENING DAY TOONTOWN!!!!!🎉⠀⠀We loved visiting yesterday for a preview of this reimagined area.  It’s absolutely perfect for getting your wiggles out, having a picnic and yup……..getting your Disney feels fix.⠀⠀My top recommendations when visiting this new area?⠀⠀1) mobile order from Cafe Daisy…..we loved the pizza options and the cold brew⠀2) play play play in Goofy’s How-To-Play Yard, and inside his house…..⠀3) take the time to walk through Minnie and Mickey’s houses, you’ll probably see a surprise friend or two!⠀4) absolutely yes to the picnic basket from Good Boy! Grocer.  It’s a STELLAR price and a really fun experience to pick out your own snacks.⠀5) Mickey’s and Minnie’s Runaway Railway is a perfect full family ride.  I’d suggest trying for this earlier in the day if you can.⠀6) Keep an eye out for Pete, it’s so much fun to see him wandering the area.⠀⠀#Disneyland #Toontown #Mickey #Minnie #MMRR @disneyland @disneyparks invited guest
✨There’s something in my eye…….oh it’s j ✨There’s something in my eye…….oh it’s just pixie dust.⠀⠀When I think of Lydia’s earliest visits to Disneyland….I think of Toontown.  I think of Minnie’s House and meeting Mickey and playing next to Goofy’s House.  I think of the adorable landscape and the magic that the area creates for the youngest and the young at heart.⠀⠀✨Today we visited Toontown for a sneak peek before it’s reopening tomorrow…..and yup, that pixie dust definitely got in my eye.  More than once.⠀⠀Toontown is even more magical than it was (partially thanks to the addition of a cold brew on the menu at Cafe Daisy (good call Disney food and beverage team). ⠀⠀✨My favorite moments from today’s sneak preview?⠀1️⃣ we saw Pete. He’s even better than I’d hoped.2️⃣ I love love love the food options in Toontown! Highlights: the picnic basket snack option Good Boy! Grocers, the cold brew and a delicious gluten free fold over pizza (regular looked great too)3️⃣ the new play areas are amazing! Goofy’s How to Play Area is phenomenal and filled with a ton of new interactions. ⠀Happy reopening Toontown.  Can’t wait to see you again real soon. ⠀⠀Have you visited Toontown? Are you planning to come see all updates?⠀⠀#Disneyland #Toontown #Mickey #Minnie #MMRR @disneyland @disneyparks invited guest

There are people cheering you on…..and you don’t even realize it.I learned a LOT during the 7 months of training for this race.  I learned that I should stretch and warm up (thanks pulled muscle for that life lesson), I learned that small progress over time leads to achieving big goals.  I learned that sunshine and being outside makes me a happier person.  I learned that I’m more of an athlete than I thought I was. But most of all? I learned……there are a whole lot of people in your cheering section and you might not even know they’re sitting there.  After I pulled this muscle, I was amazed by the sweet and kind messages while I tried to prepare to run my first 10k with an injury.  But NOTHING prepared me for the ovwhelming amount of kindness and support that flooded into my inbox when I crossed the finish line.  From the early morning you can do this messages to the ones that came in throughout the race to the inspiring amount of support as I iced my pulled muscle…..it brought me to tears.And the amazing thing? When Jennifer and Lashawn and I found each other at the finish line….they said the same thing.  It’s not just me.  We all have a cheering section.  And wow, do they show up when you may not be expecting them.Got a big goal? Working on something new? Share it in the comments.  I’d love to join your support team.#medalmonday #rundisney
