Raise your hand if Woody, Buzz, and Jessie are in your top 10 favorite Disney characters! (My hand is flailing wildly). To me, Toy Story embodies my childhood as well as my sons’. I can’t wait for Disney’s Hollywood Studios Toy Story Land to open!
You may wonder how that’s possible considering I am over 40 (not a lot over, but I have come to grasps with it) and my boys are both under 13. I’ll tell you in two sentences:
A lot of the characters in Toy Story bring me back to my childhood days – toys that I owned and loved. My boys grew up with the trilogy, Toy Story, and to this day ask to watch them during our family movie nights. ‘Nuff said.
Get Ready for Toy Story Land…
While at the Disney Social Media Moms Celebration On the Go event at the InterContinental in Miami, I learned a lot of GREAT new happenings at the parks and for the cruise line. When I heard about Disney’s Hollywood Studios opening the highly anticipated Toy Story Land it was like time stood still.
When I walk in on or after June 30th, I will be walking into a world where I am the size of the toys I covet.
Toy Story Mania
A land dedicated to Woody, Buzz, Slinky…oh goodness. The 4D shooting arcade game, Toy Story Mania, is currently open and gives us just a taste of what is to come. On Toy Story Mania, you are zipping through Andy’s Room where you play each of 5 different virtual carnival games – all in 3D
Slinky Dog Dash
Slinky is the cutest – can you imagine him as a roller coaster?! I can and DID see him in action in a preview movie. My boys are going to flip!
Alien Swirling Saucers
I don’t know which ride the boys will run to first – Slinky Dog or these swirling saucers. They have a tendency of gravitating toward spinning objects.
Woody’s Lunch Box
The perfect name for the perfect place to grab breakfast, lunch and/or dinner while in Toy Story Land! My little one can’t wait for the old school soda floats – root bear is his favorite. Also served is the good old classic American fare.
OK, so who else is ready to experience this amazing NEW land with me at the end of June?!

Disney has nothing to do with age, in my opinion. 🙂
I’ve been eagerly awaiting this land to open for well over a year. It won’t be ready when we go back in June but we’ll see it in October!
Dana says
I agree 100%, Jayne!
