Thanks, I read that I just wasn’t sure if that would encompass disney springs. If we wait to meet Santa and then my kids go to find some one that doesn’t look like Santa ... well, there’s sure to be some major disappointment & meltdowns Just trying to gauge whether it’s worth attempting the virtual cue. If my oldest sees diverse Santas in the park he’ll just say someone is pretending to be Santa... it’ll be a whole different thing if we are “going to meet Santa.”

When my kids were little we would discuss Santa and the fact that every mall had a Santa etc. We decided that the real Santa moved around, and all the others were decoys that helped him out. You never knew if you were getting the real Santa or a helper. Quite often they were convinced that they had just visited the real Santa.
I think that is how I would handle this with my kids if they were still little.

I’m not sure if they will be switching out or all in separate locations. Here is how the article reads:

“Starting tomorrow, the holidays kick off at Walt Disney World and Disney has planned to have Cast Members of various races portray the role of Santa Claus at the parks this year. The move is the latest in a Diversity and Inclusion initiative that Disney has focused on in the past couple of years.

Ahead of a theme park debut that might come as early as tonight, Cast Members were able to meet with a diverse lineup of Santa Claus meet and greets early as part of the #DisneyCastLife perk that offers Cast Members a sneak peek of upcoming theme park offerings!”

This is really cool, such an awesome way to make magic for some kids that may have never met a Santa that looks like them.

Great idea!

We did the same thing when the kids were young. My oldest knew the one that came to the cubscout meeting wasn't a real one (probably due to the cheesy felt beard) but he knew the real one always came to Dad's office party. Now the Easter Bunny was a whole other problem my oldest was 4 when he asked is the Easter Bunny a real bunny or the guy in the costume? And if it's a real bunny how does he carry around all the eggs to hide? My answer...I don't know, I've never seen the Easter Bunny.

Curious , how will parents handle why the Santa at Epcot doesn't look at all like the Santa at MK.? Or at 11 Santa looks one way, 6 hours later, completely different in the same park?

Does any one why Disney’s park hours are showing early entry as an hour instead of 30 minutes? Did I miss something?

Disney+ Day, anyone staying on-site gets in an hour early, all other guests with a Disney+ subscription can get in a half hour early.
