It's not too early to get started on your holiday shopping and there are several special merchandise events planned at the Walt Disney World Resort this month to get you started! The events include special artist appearances and even a book signing with a Disney Legend.

Florida may be known as the sunshine state, but when the warm sun dips below the horizon the Winter evenings at Walt Disney World can become down right cold. When you need to find a quick way to warm up, why not turn to the traditional with a delicious hot chocolate. We're not just talking about any old hot chocolate though, Disney's got oodles of great spots to grab a happy cup of warmth and elevate this classic drink into a holiday spectacular.

The Force is strong at Disney's Hollywood Studios. Starting December 1, guests at the theme park will be able to experience Star Wars every day, beyond just riding Star Tours: The Adventure Continues over and over again.

Haul out the holly because it's the right time to start gathering together the magical trimmings that give your holiday home that Disney touch. It doesn't matter if you're shopping in the parks or sitting at home online, Disney has fabulous gear to spread some holiday cheer.

The holiday season is officially underway at the Magic Kingdom and once again the Jungle Cruise has been transformed into the Jingle Cruise. The fan favorite attraction has been transformed for the holiday season for the past couple of years thanks to homesick Skipper who want to celebrate the holidays.

If you're a Disney geek like me, you've probably thought about or already taken one of the special behind the scenes tours that Disney has to offer. Most recently I was lucky enough to get the chance to do the Marceline to Magic Kingdom Tour, which is still fairly new to Walt Disney World.

As construction continues on Pandora: The World of AVATAR at Disney's Animal Kingdom, Disney recently released a new artist rendering of the family-friendly attraction Na'vi River Journey. This is just one of the attractions planned for the new land based on the Oscar-winning film AVATAR.

If you're only going to ride one attraction when you're visiting Disney's Animal Kingdom we suggest heading straight for the Kilimanjaro Safaris. This attraction is the closest most of us will ever get to a real African safari excursion and there is always something new and exciting to discover as you travel through the Harambe Wildlife Reserve.

This weekend is the Disney Store's annual holiday friends & family sale, where discounts kick off a shopping season that's full of Disney magic. We've gathered together another couple of cute outfits that will help you and your loved ones get into to this most magical season at Walt Disney World. Let's start off with something for him, even if he's feeling Grumpy.

The holiday season has officially started at the Walt Disney World Resort. This week Disney's Hollywood Studios turned on The Osborne Family Spectacle of Dancing Lights for one last season. The holiday light display is leaving for good after this year due to the upcoming construction for Toy Story Land and Star Wars Land at the theme park.
