Meeting Disney characters is one of the most treasured moments of any Walt Disney World visit, especially for the youngest guests. A little preparation — the right outfit, a keepsake autograph book — can turn a quick hello into a memory that lasts for years. Disney Food Blog rounded up 11 Amazon items designed to do exactly that, and most cost noticeably less than comparable options sold inside the parks.
On the costume side (a reminder: guests 13 and under may wear costumes at Disney parks, subject to safety and family-friendly guidelines), there are several dress-up trunk sets worth considering. The Aurora and Ariel Dress-Up Trunk bundles 11 pieces — dresses and jewelry — representing both Sleeping Beauty and The Little Mermaid. For fans of multiple princesses, the 4-Princess Trunk Set covers Ariel, Jasmine, Tiana, and Rapunzel in one package, complete with tops, skirts, headbands, rings, bracelets, a necklace, and customizable stickers. There's also a Moana Dress-Up Trunk with two adventure-inspired dresses and a full set of accessories stored in a keepsake trunk.
For the Toy Story and Star Wars fans, the lineup includes a Sheriff Woody two-piece outfit sized for toddlers — ideal for Toy Story Land — and a Darth Vader three-piece pajama ensemble with a graphic tee, shorts, and cape. Animal Kingdom visitors might especially appreciate the Russell from UP! costume, which includes a soft jumpsuit, neckerchief, detachable badge, and Wilderness Explorers hat. And for the very first meeting with Mickey himself, there's a Mickey-themed baby outfit complete with ears.
Beyond costumes, the list covers keepsakes as well. A Disney Princess autograph book and a Disney character autograph book are both available at prices well below what you'd pay at a park gift shop. For something a bit different, a signable mat and frame set lets guests collect signatures on the mat itself, then display it as framed wall art once they're home. Rounding things out is a Disney-themed 4×6 photo frame made to showcase your favorite character snapshot from the trip.
