What was your favorite souvenir from your childhood trip(s)?

I also rocked the Daisy hat with the eyelashes!

My favorite souvenir would be a Mickey Mouse tea set that I got back in the 90s. My mom has been looking for it in hopes we can give it to my DD someday.

BTW: I've lurked here for awhile, but have just started posting...so....HI!

Welcome!

The colorful magic rocks that grow in a bowl. My mom took me to Disneyland almost 50 yrs ago. I remember it like it was yesterday! I was scared to death of POTC.

1. A stuffed snake from Adventureland in 1987. He was blue with green trim and I kept him coiled around one of the posts of my four-poster bed. I don't even like snakes but I thought he was so cool and he kind of reminded me of Sir Hiss from Robin Hood.

2. A stuffed hippo in a ballerina costume (from Fantasia) purchased in the Emporium in 1991. She had a pink tutu and pink satin ballet slippers and she was precious and not typical.

My favourite souvenir from my childhood has to be the very first trip itself I was able to take with my father. This place was just incredible to me (still is) and I will never forget the first time I entered MK and saw the castle in person for the first time.

Though this is not from my childhood, I have to say when I was able to take my father back to Disney World three years ago without him having to spend one penny was probably the best souvenir I have from Disney. Knowing how much my father worked and saved to be able to afford to take me all the times we went ... Having the ability to take him for a change was a really great feeling to have.

His first time flying first class or riding in a limo ... Loads of memories from that trip that I wouldn't change for anything. It was funny to watch him try to pay for the drinks on the plane not knowing they were free

Just a great father/son trip over Thanksgiving 2011 that I am hoping he will never forget.

I got a stuffed Minnie Mouse my fist trip when I was 5. I still have her. I wish I still had my Daisy hat with the big plastic bill and long wire eyelashes. They were so popular in 1990!

I have a Minnie hat like that! My aunt brought it back to me from her first trip there. It's pretty cool!

My Davey Crockett pop-gun, purchased in Frontier Land, Magic Kingdom, circa 1976!! Still got it. Still pops. Quality products back then!

The coconut pirate head. Not sure where I got it (maybe Pirates of the Caribbean) but the coconut that has the bandana, and is made to look like a pirate. Probably got it late 80's/early 90's, and yep, still have it.

I have a pair of Mickey pirate ears that I squeal every time I find them in the souvenir box we have. They're like a bandana, but with ears and I love them!

My favorite souvenir was a miniature porcelain Alice & Wonderland tea set - it was so cute! This thread may or may not have inspired me to find the set on eBay...
