It’s becoming easier and easier to experience Disney magic from your home.
On Monday, the entertainment giant released a new website called Disney Magic Moments. The site is free to use, and offers Disney-themed activities that both children and adults can enjoy. For example, you can learn how to draw characters like Olaf through tutorials, or you can watch videos of theme-park employees performing songs.
“#DisneyMagicMoments lets you experience the magic of Disney wherever you may be,” the website’s front page says. “Enjoy Disney, Pixar, Star Wars, Marvel, and National Geographic with stories, videos, and activities to inspire imagination and discovery among kids, fans, and families alike.”
Disney Magic Moments is the perfect tool to keep kids busy and entertained
There are lots of options for young “Frozen” fans in particular. Not only can they watch a new animated series on the site called “At Home With Olaf,” but they can also learn art skills through an Olaf-themed drawing tutorial.
The fun doesn’t stop there. Celebrities including John Stamos and Ming-Na Wen (the voice of Mulan) filmed themselves reading Disney picture books for the website. Their videos are now available to watch on Disney Magic Moments for free.
Adults will appreciate theme-park inspired content on Disney’s new website
On Monday, for example, a virtual tour of It’s a Small World was uploaded to Disney Magic Moments. Though recordings of the ride already exist on YouTube, this one is unique — it takes you through every version of the ride, from Disney World in Florida to Disneyland Park in France.
The company also released a performance from the JAMMitors, who are described on the Disney Parks Blog as being “everyone’s favorite funky group of janitors-turned-percussionists.”
“Normally this group would be sharing their syncopated sounds at EPCOT using all sorts of different items they find around the park,” the blog post says. “Today, they are sharing their #VoicesFromHome — using pots and pans, trash cans, and even an old tire!”
And if theme parks aren’t your thing, the website offers plenty of other ways to incorporate Disney magic into your at-home life — there are free Pixar-themed backgrounds for virtual meetings, and dance-inspired workout videos to watch.
