Waking up Tink...

[1stWDWtrip]

Okay, need a little help...again! I read somewhere on here in the last few months of my "research" about being able to wake up Tink at one of the shops in the morning if you were lucky enough to be the first customer or the first customer to ask. I can't remember where that was, can someone please remind me?

Hurry please, as we leave in just over a day!!! THANK YOU!!

From all my reading I believe it is at Tink's Treasures... which is tucked behind the castle... I remember the shop, unfortunatly didn't know about waking tink till a few weeks ago... We are going to try on our next trip

Tink's Treasure's is correct. You have to be the first one in the shop to do this. We have done it several times and our daughter loves it.

From what I gather, the word is out about Tink. It is becoming a dog-eat-dog (or princess-eat-princess) race to the Treasure Shop to wake up Tink. A Few horror stories of very un-Disneylike behaviour have been posted.

In reading one of these I thought , wouldn't it be great (and more civilized) for CM's to pick a "Family of the Day" at the ropes (like they do for Dumbo to ride with Mickey), instead of allowing a stampede with 4 yr olds in tow ?

My 4 year old daughter woke up Tink in Sept. There was one other little girl there too and they let both of them do it. Very nice CMs- but watch out! We saw an enormous coackroach crawling around on the floor. Guess he didn't have time to hide before they opened!

That does sound like a great idea! We really don't need to have fights at the World!!

Just so you know, if you don't happen to be the first person to be able to do it, you can still have your daughter do it, just without all of the hullaballoo from a CM.

Every couple minutes, you will hear Tink's jingly sound and you'll see her light on the wall of the shop, traveling around the room. Make sure your daughter is stooped down looking through the key hole. When it reaches the little dresser, it will light up inside the drawer for a brief second, long enough for her to get a quick glimpse of Tink.

Enjoy!
