Birthday help for non-princessey 5 yo girl

[Mamasmurf227]

We are bringing our youngest daughter to Disney for her 5th b-day and are looking for something special to do.

For her older sister's b-day, we did breakfast at the castle and got her the engraved glass slipper.

Our youngest is not as into princesses and girly stuff as much, so not sure she would enjoy that. But, we want to do something special and have a similar keepsake for her.

Ideas, please!

Edited to say: She loves animals so I was wondering if there was something special at AK?

If she is into pirates you could do pirates league. Or maybe the pirates and pals cruise. Does she like tea parties? I know you said she is not girly but I have seen some tomboys like to play tea party.

I suggest Pirates League too!!!!

You can do the Pirates Adventure Cruises or the Pirates and Pals Fireworks Voyage. We are doing the voyage this year and can't wait.

Ènjoy!

Animal Kingdom Lodge used to have some Animal and Cultural programs. Your DD is too young for the Wild Africa Trek. But if you can find out what they currently offer that would be age appropriate, you could sign up for something there. Not sure what they currently have, but they used to have a couple of different safaris. They also used to have a thing where you could have a meal with one of the animal experts. I'm not sure if they still do this, but if your DD is really into animals I would look there first.
