My name is Alannah, I am a 31 old mother and wife from Scotland with a love for all things Disney. My main adoration in life is my little boy Quinn, who shares my love of Disney and of course Peter Pan. In 2014 I began a Disney related account on Instagram @PixiePlanner_ to share our time spent at Walt Disney World. The creation of @littlepeterpan_ , an account filled with Quinn’s Disney adventures followed two years later. Here you will find aspects of my life from Disney to family, travel to parenting, photography and food. Always believe in the magic…..

Minnie Mouse – The Main Attraction Collection Continued

AD–There are some affiliate links in this post. I receive a small commission if you purchase from my links. As always, all views and opinions are my own.

Tomorrow sees the penultimate shopDisney Minnie Mouse – The Main Attraction Collection, Jungle Cruise release online across Europe. The collection is very close to my heart and has meant so much more due to the fact that we, and so many others, could not travel to Disney and experience the magic and these attractions in so long! You may remember that I spoke about the uncertainty and heartbreak in the last post that I wrote about the collection, and although times are just as hard, this collection has brought so much joy.

June – Series 6, Peter Pan’s Flight

In my last post, I spoke of my excitement of receiving June’s plush mug and pins and my sheer delight at Kevin managing to pre-order the Loungefly mini backpack. The bag arrived and blew me away! It exceeded all expectations I had and is my favourite bag I own. I was so sad when I missed out on the ears on release day and again during the surprise pre-order. Luckily, one of my Instagram friends was selling her unwanted pair and came to my rescue. I was overjoyed! I am still in awe of completing the Peter Pan’s Flight collection with all five items!

July – Series 7, King Arthur Carrousel

July’s collection had a lot to live up to after my favourite month of the collection, but the King Arthur Carrousel Minnie plush didn’t disappoint. I love her unique pastel colours and how soft she feels. She is very regal looking, and I also love how pretty and sparkly the Loungefly mini backpack in the collection looks. I didn’t go for the bag after my over spending on the previous month’s collection!

August – Series 8, Dumbo The Flying Elephant

shopDisney’s quality control team highlighted a quality issue on the Dumbo plush, prior to its dispatch, and they refunded all orders. They later emailed with a link to the plush to guests affected by the cancellation notice and my Minnie arrived in October. She is super cute and well worth the wait. So happy to have her here with the rest of my collection!

September, Series 9, Big Thunder Mountain

September’s Big Thunder Mountain design was definitely a design I was looking forward to adding to my collection. She arrived a little worse for wear, but after a little care, her ears straightened out a little and so did her bow. Denim and pink are two of my favourites and I fell in love with the Big Thunder Mountain Loungefly mini backpack. I had it in my basket, but it sold out by the time I had checked out.

October, Series 10, Haunted Mansion

I still can’t get over how cute this Minnie is! I love her way more than I thought I was going to, as I wasn’t very keen on the design to begin with. The green colour goes nicely with the Haunted Mansion print and I love her bow featuring Madame Leota. The photos really don’t do her justice, she is so detailed!

You can see our collection so far here! The Jungle Cruise collection is set to release on Wednesday 18th November at 8am on shopDisney. Will you be adding anything to your collection?

In addition, Disney is donating 100,000 of the cloth face coverings to vulnerable children and families in local communities through their long-standing charity partnerships, who provide comfort and inspiration to children facing serious illness, trauma and isolation.
