Mom of two boys needs a crash course on princesses for DL!

[SOCALMouseMommy]

Hello friends! My two boys have never been much into princesses, so despite my deep knowledge of the DLR as a local frequent traveler, my princess experience is quite limited!

I’ll be accompanying my cousin, her husband and their two girls ages 7 and 9 to Disneyland on a Monday this month. It’s this family’s first-ever visit, being tacked onto a trip to a medical facility close to DL to treat one of the girls’ severe allergies.

We have one day only, DL park only. It’s also not going to be a full day due to a very early medical appointment the next day. I did convince them to rope drop, but they will likely leave before dark. They will have LL Multi Pass.

The girls may or may not be into rides, but they are princess obsessed so I want to make sure we check all the princess boxes we can in DL.

Can someone tell me how the meeting of princesses goes at the Fantasy Faire/Royal Hall? Any tips to limit wait time?

I plan to have them watch one of the shows in the Royal Theater, take them to Bippity Boppity Boutique to get some fairy dust, and do some of the Fantasyland attractions. No money in the budget for the full BBB makeover experience, nor the princess breakfast at the GCH.

What other princessy things can I do in DL?

Jasmine, Pocahontas, Merida, Belle, and Snow White are in the cavalcade. Some of the princesses hang out just past the turnstiles (before you go under the tunnels). I think Snow White is usually by the wishing well. Tiana wanders around NOS and sometimes rides the Mark Twain.

Don’t know if this is current, but we have often noticed Merida over in that area up the steps along the parade route close to Small World. Occasionally Pocahontas does meet and greets in Frontierland in an alcove kind of near the Big Thunder exit. Gaston sometimes wanders through FantasyIand if they would enjoy seeing a princess villain. I have run across princesses in all the places noted by LKing as well.
