Epcot Food and Wine Festival

And now, Disney has just announced Epcot will be offering a modified version of its Epcot Food and Wine Festival starting on the very first day of its initial grand reopening! July 15th!!

Popular food booths from Epcot’s International Food and Wine Festival will be returning including Hawaii, Hops & Barley, and Islands of the Caribbean!

We’re also told elements of Epcot’s Flower & Garden Festival (which was cut short this year due to the temporary closures) will be “sprinkled in” with the global goodies of Epcot’s Food and Wine Festival. The new Remy topiary will be out in the France pavilion and Flower & Garden merchandise will also be for sale. So…this will basically be a hybrid Food and Wine and Flower and Garden Festival…which is kind of awesome!

The festival is scheduled to be EPCOT’s LONGEST EVER, continuing through the fall!

Remy’s Ratatouille Hide and Squeak scavenger hunt returns and Food & Wine merchandise will join the party later this year! But sadly, the Eat to the Beat concerts have been canceled for 2020.

We’ll share more details with you about this new hybrid festival as they’re released!

OMG! That Build-A-Bear Baby Yoda is Back AGAIN?!

Fans of The Mandalorian, exciting news! Build-A-Bear Workshop has announced that “The Child” plush is returning beginning TOMORROW, June 18th!

OMG! That Build-A-Bear Baby Yoda is Back AGAIN?!

The Child Plush, © Build-A-Bear Workshop

To snag the cutest child in the galaxy, Build-A-Bear has a virtual system in place! Read on if you need this plush for your intergalactic collection!

If you’re an avid Disney+ watcher, you’ve probably heard of The Mandalorian and the intergalactic obsession fans have with “The Child”. There have been several plushies of this adorable creature released since the success of the show’s first season, including this one from Disney Springs. 

If you’ve been keeping track, this guy has been re-stocked at LEAST four times…the hype is real. If you’re ready to secure the asset, get your computer ready!

OMG! That Build-A-Bear Baby Yoda is Back AGAIN?!

Information on The Child Re-Stock, © Build-A-Bear Workshop

Beginning at 11:30AM CST, you will be able to enter a pre-waiting room. Then, at 12:00PM CST, you will be assigned a random place in line to hopefully secure your very own Baby Yoda.

While joining the virtual waiting room does not guarantee you a plush of the Child, it is currently the only way to obtain this item from Build-A-Bear.

If that seems like too much work, never fear! There are plenty of items currently in stock and available online.

Will you be trying to secure the asset tomorrow? Or is watching The Mandalorian on Disney+ enough for you? Let us know in a comment below!

New Disney Mug Alert! Toy Story Fans Will Flip When They See This One!

NEW Toy Story Mug at WOD

Woody, and Forky, and Buzz — oh my! This adorable mug is no child’s plaything.

While we’ve seen lots of cute new merch popping up at World of Disney since it reopened on May 27, like the Forky Plush Bag, Rainbow Collection Ear Hat Ornament, and “M” (for Mickey) Baseball Cap, we’re craving a little Toy Story Land action with this one.

New Disney Mug Alert! Toy Story Fans Will Flip When They See This One!

These are a few of our favorite things!

If our favorite characters weren’t enough, the handle of this mug even features building block-like images of Woody, Buzz, and each Disney World Park logo for extra flair.

New Disney Mug Alert! Toy Story Fans Will Flip When They See This One!

Take me back to the parks, please!

We are having a difficult time deciding which park we are missing most and this mug handle certainly isn’t helping. However, it is making the countdown to the reopenings starting July 11 that much more exciting!

New Disney Mug Alert! Toy Story Fans Will Flip When They See This One!

No trash for you, Forky!

This colorful retro mug is $19.99 and will be perfect for a cup of coffee when you attempt to make some Lunch Box Tarts from home, among other Woody’s Lunch Box classics we’ve been craving.

Will you be adding this Toy Story Mug to your Toy Chest? Let us know in the comments!
