I have some exciting new for y’all!
We were asked by Disney Parks to host a Disney Kids Preschool Playdate this year!
Needless to say the kids and I were thrilled!
They sent us a suitcase full of party supplies, games, and gifts and the girls and I set to work planning our first Disney Kids Preschool Playdate!
We decided on a playdate at our local park with fun outdoor games and picnic style food.
That was easy but choosing a theme wasn’t so simple! We went back and forth with ideas because there are SO many Disney shows and movies! Finally, we agreed on Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, the girls’ favorite show on the Disney Channel.
I ordered these fun printable invites on Etsy. Find similar here.
One of the most popular foods that we served at the party was the Mickey Shaped Waffles.
If you have been to Disney World you have probably seen these fun waffles on the breakfast buffets.
We ordered a Mickey Waffle Maker off Amazon and made a huge platter Belgian style thick and soft waffles and served them with all the toppings. Check out all the details below.
The super talented Keichel Cookies made these amazing cookies for our party!
Also check out my Mickey Mouse Chocolate Dipped Rice Krispies Treats recipe.
Ava and Stella are Disney lovers like their Mama.
We all got decked out in Mickey gear and were ready to have a fun filled
Disney themed playdate with friends!
We glued this colorful Clubhouse picture to a wood sign and hung it up by the park entrance.
Time for the Mickey Waffle Bar!

The Party Food
Along with mini bottled water, I had pitchers of Pink Le-Minnie-Ade and Pluto Punch {recipe here}.
Most of the food was finger food but we had MouseKaTools {forks} available too.
Sign from Etsy here.
I even made chocolate Mickey’s on a stick.
Unfortunately they melted in the heat. Luckily, the kids didn’t care and ate all of them!
Find the lollipop molds on Amazon here.
We had to sneak in some healthy snacks too so we served a Daisy’s Garden Veggies Platter.
Goofy’s Grape Hats on skewers were a hit!
Pluto’s Popcorn Mix with PopSecret popcorn, colorful chocolate candy, and Mickey shaped pretzels.
Mickey Pizza from our local favorite Fox’s Pizza.
These fantastic cookies from Keichel Cookies were a hit at the party!
Donald’s Dips and Chips {in a Mickey shape}.
A favorite from previous parties, Minnie’s Bow-Tie Pasta, was served.
I mixed bow tie pasta with olives, pepperoni, Parmesan cheese, and Italian dressing.
Clarabelle’s Chocolate Muffins, made with gluten free Simple Mills mix, were delicious!
Finally, my favorite party food was the Hot Diggity Dog Bar.
We heated hot dogs in a Crock-Pot and served buns, cheese, and toppings on the side.
I even added Mickey themed labels to the condiments.
Games and Crafts
This easy craft is perfect for toddlers and preschoolers.
We made Mickey Sorcerers Hats!
We used a Mickey Frisbee and music from Mickey Mouse Clubhouse
to play Hot Mickey {aka Hot Potato}.
Another fun game: Hidden Mickey Hunt.
We hid paper Mickey’s all over the park and had the kids mark off the ones they found on a scorecard. The first two to find all 8 hidden Mickey’s won prizes.
The next game was Potato Sack Races.
We found these awesome Mickey Potato Sacks on sale at Party City.
All the kids, of all ages, loved the Potato Sacks!
My two cuties had a great time hopping around!
Everyone was a winner at our party!
Using a foam board and cardstock we made a photo frame shaped like Mickey.
My husband, always the ham.
Such a cute way to “say cheese”.
Our final game was Mickey Cornhole.
The girls finger painted a large foam board
and we cut out 3 circles to make a Mickey shape.
I filled balloons with beans and made bean bags for the kids to toss.
All the Preschool age kids took home a goodie bag filled with Mickey Mouse Clubhouse toys, stickers, and candy.
The big kids got Disney World fortune teller games.
We had gifts for the parents too!
HP Photos sent packs of Social Media Snapshots for us to give away.
The girls are I made treats too- Mickey Mouse Chocolate Dipped Rice Krispies Treats for everyone!

What a super cute party!!
How did you heat up your waffles the day of the party?
Since it was an outside party I just served them room temp and did not reheat. They were perfect!
Great post thanks for sharing game
