Questions to ask Minnie Mouse:

• Did Daisy help you pick out your bow?
• How many bows do you have?
• Do you have as many bows as Minnie’s Bow Boutique says you have?
• I just love your shoes! How many pairs do you have?

My tips for meeting the characters:

• Almost all characters sign, make sure you have an autograph book (write your cell phone number in it) and pen for them to use (their hands are big so you might want to get one of the fat sharpies.)
• Character handlers (the cash members that work with characters) have a light blue shirt on. If you see someone standing around with a light blue shirt, it means a character is about to come out. Ask them!
• When you get in line, ask the cast member when the character plans to go get a snack. You might not want to wait the extra 5 minutes for their break.
• Only face characters (like the Princesses) speak. You could explain this to your child by saying that the other characters have to save their voices for the parades and shows (where they do speak).
• It is okay to ask questions to the characters about their movies, life, etc. It might be fun while you wait in line to come up with a question to ask them. Just don’t ask Chip and Dale where they keep their nuts!
• When we meet a character, we get the autograph first (make sure you open your book to a clean page while you are waiting in line), give hugs and then take a picture. The characters will help your children to turn around to pose for the picture.
• Don’t forget to say “please” when asking for an autograph & photo and then “thank you” afterwards.

Photo tips

• Take a picture of your child as they walk towards the character. I’ve caught some cute pictures of Jacob with his arms outstretched towards the character. It’s so cute.
• Most characters have a Photopass Photographer with them. They will take pictures with your camera too. Don’t be afraid to ask!
• It is okay to have a picture made with just your kids and then you jump in for a second shot.
• If you have more tips for this list, please add them to the comments so I can update it.

Reader Experiences:

Back in 2012 we were having breakfast at Chef Mickeys (always a favorite of ours). When Minnie came to our table our little one was being a bit fussy. When we explained to Minnie that she was fussy because she wasn’t eating, Minnie picked up her spoon and started to feed her cereal. I think our little one was in shock because she immediately started eating off the spoon that Minnie was holding up to her mouth. – Denise N.

When we were at Disneyland in June my son had a conversation with her about Mickey blowing her kisses from across the courtyard and she did a sweet dance and blew a kiss back at Mickey. He then asked if she wanted to dab, and she did!  It was adorable and made his whole trip outside of a front row seat to the electrical parade thanks to some awesome cast members! -Alice O.

Minnie at Cape May Cafe kept coming over and touching my husbands biceps. It was hysterical. When I asked her what about Mickey, she pointed to her ring finger and shook her head no like I don’t see a ring! My kids were crying from laughing so hard. – Michelle S.
