10 Things I Always Have in My Park Bag at Walt Disney World

4. Quarters, pennies and trading pins

Behold, three of the most interesting and inexpensive souvenirs from Walt Disney World! Inside my Toy Story backpack, you will always find a Zip-loc bag of quarters and pennies, as well as a Zip-loc bag of official Disney trading pins that I’m hoping to trade with a Cast Member or another Guest. At kiosks all around the parks, you can press quarters or pennies with souvenir imprints of Disney characters or Disney World attractions. A pressed penny costs $0.51 ($0.50 to press the penny plus the penny itself), and a pressed quarter costs $1.25 ($1.00 to press the quarter plus the quarter itself). Trading official Disney pins is a park phenomenon. As long as you have official Disney trading pins, you can trade with a Cast Member for a pin they are wearing on their lanyard. You can also trade with other Guests in the parks who have pins to trade. These are three of the most fun souvenirs to go home with because they are so unique!

I am a writer and a Mom to four children and two baby shih-tzus. My first experience with the Magic was in 1988, when my parents surprised my brother and me with a visit to Walt Disney World after a short trip to see friends in Georgia. I still hum the tune played during the Main Street Electrical Parade and remember the feeling of excitement from my very first visit. I introduced my husband to the Magic several years ago, and we take our children to the parks every time we can. No matter how many times I visit Walt Disney World, it seems it’s not enough! The ever-changing experience only gets better with each trip, and I’m thrilled to share the Magic with others, as well as some of the tips and tricks to getting the most out of the Magic with each visit!
