Are they worth it was thinking about possibly booking the birthday celebration or Halloween in Sept thanks
How old is the person you are doing it for?
My son was 6 or 7 when we did it for him. At the time I had 4 kids and figured it would be nice and special and they would share and maybe I would do it again when we were back for another one's birthday. They were all under 7 at the time and it was really exciting. There was a gift from each character and he also got a call in the room wishing him Happy Birthday. The kids all kind of treated it like a gift to all of them but obviously he was the special one. It was also a little extra magical because at the time they really believed Mickey and Minnie and Donald delivered it (I don't want to give too much away) and also that Tinkerbell was there.
The birthday banner was a great quality and can be used over and over again. He got the cutest little Donald drawstring napsack that I use to this day for all my Disney trips.
While I haven't spent the money to do it again. It was pretty awesome and it made everyone excited. I think it is worth it once because to do it again would not be the same unless I were doing a different type of celebration or surprising the whole family with something. So I guess, I would make this one count.
Wow what an awesome surprise sounds wonderfulWhen my husband turned 40, Disney actually gifted this as a surprise to him! We were completely and utterly shocked!! We returned to our room after a full day at Animal Kingdom and there was a cake, balloons, character backpacks for him and our daughter, a plush and a toy for our son, a dog dish with Pluto on it for our dog back home, candy from Goofy's and balloons!! I think the sweet Mousekeeping staff arranged it,(Only 2 of the staff knew we had a dog, It had to be initiated from them but they never confessed to it) we had been friendly with them everyday and had many conversations, smiles, etc. It was very costly, I know, and we were just blown away!!! We were staying at Caribbean Beach Resort and this will always be a treasured memory of ours.
