A Little Girl's Dream Comes True at Disney

Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique -  Where a Little Girl's Dream of being a Princess comes true

Disney World is a great place to visit for family, young and old as there are an abundance of many different things and activities catering to various age groups, gender and taste.

One of the neat things we saw at Disney for the past few days was the many little princess  walking around with their moms, dads and grandparents.

There were kids in other costumes such as superman, power ranger etc., but it was overwhelmingly little princess we had the pleasure of encountering especially on the day we visited the Magic Kingdom.





Pretty little princesses abound at Disney


There were many little girls walking around Disney resplendent in their regal princess dresses with their hair pulled up high, some were beautifully done up with light make up, some with sparkles on their faces and  little tiaras on their heads.

We saw a little pretty princess proudly walking around and holding her father‘s hand while another father nearby observed her and then looked back at his own daughter who was dressed in regular kids’ clothes.

I could detect a tiny hint of guilt on this father’s face.

Where did all these pretty adorable princess come from? How could other little girls be transformed into little  princesses?





 Out of curiosity, I strolled around the castle in the Magic Kingdom and try to discover that magical place that did such a fine job of turning out little regal people.

The Cinderella Mural on the Castle Wall

I found the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique located on the main floor of the castle. The beautiful medieval castle has been a symbol of Disney World for decades.







As soon as we went into the city gate, we were greeted with huge mosaic tile murals depicting the scenes of some famous fairy tale



Just right beside one of these murals we could see the Bibbidi Bobbidi Boutique. In the waiting area of the boutique were mothers, with their young daughters

around the ages of three to seven years old; grandmas as well were sitting patiently waiting for their turn to have their little girls transformed into fairy tale princesses.










Inside the boutique, ( it looked more like a beauty salon) little girls were sitting on the hairdressers` chairs having their hair combed, braided, styled and worked on to transform them into princesses.

This regal transformation cost between $59.00 -
$ 199.00 depending on the package chosen.

For the $59.00 package, a little girl could get her nails and hair done. For the more expensive priced package, it would be the whole thing including make up, the princess` dress, bracelet, tiara etc.

 Lots of parents and grandparents love to see their little girls transformed into princesses. However, these transformation appointments need to be made well in advance.

 If I have a little granddaughter, I would probably want to see her becoming a princess for a day and have a picture taken with her too!
