All About Kimberly

It’s tradition - you have to have a set of ears the first time you go to Walt Disney World - no matter how old you may be. For my youngest daughter, we’ve picked a pair each trip, but I’ve been happy to just have one set - until now!!!

You can now customize your own set of Disney ears at Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom.  The Chapeau, which is located near the front entrance of the Magic Kingdom, is now offering fully customizable ears.  And boy do you have lots of choices.

There are currently 19 different bases (the actual hat) to chose from and then comes the ears. There are also 19 different sets of ears that can be attached to the base. (Can’t decide? The ears actually snap on so you can buy multiple sets of ears and change them out each day of your vacation) And finally there are dozens of patches that can be added to make it even more customizable and don’t forget you can still have your name sewn on it.

Of course, if you’re a mom like me, the first thought is “and how much is this going to cost me?”  I’m pleased to say, not nearly as much as I first envisioned. Bases cost $4.95 or $5.95, ears run $2.50 and $3.50 apiece, and stickers are $2.95 a pop. The embroidered-name option is $3.

I’m really excited. I can’t wait to see the options. I have a feeling all three of us will be purchasing a new pair of Mickey Ears on our August trip to Walt Disney World.
