As every Disney family knows, “Adventure is out there!” But sometimes, staying in for the night can be an adventure and a dream come true, too. After all, home is where the heart is, and there’s plenty of heart that can go into these fun ideas for hangouts at home. Here are some ideas for a one-of-a-kind family night in. Cardmembers can create some awesome moments with savings along the way, with 10% off select Disney décor and activities at Disney store and shopDisney.com.1 Now, let’s get cozy!
First, build a blanket fort—or castle.
Step into a comfy creation made of linens from around the house! Create Sleeping Beauty Castle, Cinderella Castle or other royally iconic Disney homes within your own using blankets, pillows and sheets. Drape them over furniture or hang them from a clothesline you can extend from wall to wall. Depending on how big you want your regal fort to be, you can make a day-long project of it. For example, create castle towers from construction paper and tunnel entrances from decorated boxes.
Then, get comfy with Disney pillows and pajamas.
Upgrade your cuddle game with pillows and pajamas to pack your castle with luxurious padding. For extra Disney flourishes, check out the fun options at shopDisney.com, such as the Minnie Mouse Cuddleez Plush for a friendly face or the Olaf fleece throw for some ultimate warm hugs. The Winnie the Pooh sleep set provides wondrous warmth, and the Disney Princess PJ PALS and Tutu Set is perfect for dancing.
Set the mood with lively lighting.
Bring some twinkle into your dreamy fort by adding lights! Use your little one’s favorite nightlight, unpack your holiday string lights, or borrow a lamp from around the house—get creative with where and how you bring the brightness. Add some castle class with this fanciful, color-changing Fantasyland Castle Night Light.
Next, prepare delightful Disney snacks.
What good is a fort without food? Cupcakes, anyone? Bake some tasty treats for your castle in deliciously Disney style—with the Mickey Mouse Pot Holder and Oven Mitt Set. Or enjoy savory snacks with the Toy Story Kettle-Style Popcorn Popper.
Finally, immerse yourselves in an amazing story.
Once your Disney-designed dwelling is decked out, it’s time to settle in and get snuggly. Redeem your Disney Rewards Dollars toward a board game (like The Mandalorian Monopoly or Hollywood Tower Hotel Jenga), a book for the whole family (like the empowering Disney Princess Storybook Collection or the happily-ever-afters of the Disney Bedtime Classics), or a movie!2
Congratulations, you’ve now built a truly legendary Disney-style family night. Cardmembers, remember you’ll receive 10% off select purchases when you gather gear for your home (and castle!) at Disney store and shopDisney.com!1
