Tinkerbell's Treasures has a new name and only half the space of the old store.
Tinkerbell's Treasures has been "cut" into two smaller shops:
Tinker Bell's Fairy Treasures
and
Castle Couture.
They will still let kids wake Tink, but it is not quite the "big thing" that it once was.
(They redesigned "Tink")
Sometimes they will issue a certificate to the kid(s) chosen to wake the fairy in the morning.
Also, you can quietly ask the store CM's if your child can "summon Tink" at nearly any time of day.
My daughter got to summon Tink late one afternoon this summer. I had never seen it, so was delighted with how cute it was! Very magical and definitely worth doing!
My daughter did this 2x on our trip in May. Just ask one of the people right behind the register and they will hand over the bell. My daughter LOVED this! They also sprinkled pixie dust in her hair.
We are going to Disney tomorrow morning and would like to do this w/DD. I am looking over the Magic Kingdom map, but I don't see "Tinkerbell Treasures". What area is it in? Is Pixie Hollow also near it?
As you exit the castle, it's the shop just off to your left, next to Cinderella's fountain. It's called Castle Couture now. I think a small part of the store is Tink's something or other now, but it's all one shop.
Only the first person who asks gets to "wake" Tink. Others during the day can summon her. I'm not sure what the difference is. I'd love to hear back tomorrow about it!
Pixie Hollow is completely different. It's the meet & greet for Tink and the fairies over in Toontown in the Toontown Hall of Fame, next to where you meet the princesses.
While visiting in April/May this year I actually got to put Tink to bed!!
I had headed back to MK for EEMH while DH and the kids slept and was just enjoying walking around and seeing the changes from our trip the year before.
I happened to be looking around inside Tink's Treasures/Castle Couture and had stopped to enjoy the Aurora dress display when I noticed that the CMs seemed to be getting ready to close up and I was the only one in the shop.
I asked one about the new Tink window and how often Tink appeared and a she kindly asked if I would like to put Tink to bed for the night -- got to love the CMs that spread magic and pixie dust no matter what your age and don't make you feel silly!! Anyway, she handed me a small bell and asked me to ring it while calling Tink, the CMs called out to her, too, and there was a twinkling of lights and then Tink appeared in her window, she waved her wand and winked and then the CMs closed the shutters on her window. It was so much fun, and just a bit silly, but I am really glad that I had the opportunity.

Tink does two "shows".When she "wakes up" she stretches and rubs her eyes,etc.That "show" is only done once a day.She can be "called" anytime with the Bell and in that "show" she just waves her wand,etc.I think the new "set-up" with Tink is MUCH better than in the "old" shop because Guests actually SEE Tink .In the "old" shop it was very hard to see her in the drawer.
