3. Food of the month boxes

Imagine going to your mailbox and being greeted with a mystery package of foods straight from your favorite parks. While fresh turkey legs and Dole Whips might be a little difficult to package and send all over the world, these boxes could contain Minnie’s Bake Shop cookies, cotton candy straight from Main Street U.S.A., Mickey crispy rice treats and Goofy’s Candy Co. Sour Gummy Worms. Countries in Epcot could also get in on the action, offering some of the treats that are available in the shops there, such as gourmet caramels from Karamell-Kuche in Germany or fizzy fruity candy from Mitsukoshi in Japan. Maybe at a different price point, the boxes could contain souvenir popcorn buckets, such as the pretty Cinderella’s carriage bucket that’s new to the parks or the fun, classic Dumbo popcorn bucket.

4. Room decorations

Many of Disney’s resort rooms are richly themed, but how can you add your own touches without filling your suitcase with supplies? Disney could offer a box full of room decorations at the parks, such as flags, signs and removable decals that could liven up rooms and still possibly be used at home. The company could also offer boxes filled with Disney-themed decorations for events like birthdays, anniversaries and graduations. Disney does offer some packages for special occasions through its Floral & Gifts department, but the prices are a little steep for many vacationers.

5. Craft kits

If you’ve ever been on Pinterest, you’ve probably seen thousands and thousands of Disney craft ideas. The problem with many of them is that the supplies are sometimes hard to find – and the cost of those supplies can add up too. Disney could offer kits containing everything that would be needed to make a craft, such as a wreath, bracelet or picture frame, and the kits could be offered at the parks, for people to make while relaxing after a long day, or through the mail to spread the magic at home. People could make the items to get ready for a trip or to remember past vacations. And Disney has so many sources for crafty ideas. Hawaiian wreath kits could be offered based on “Lilo and Stitch,” a floating rose kit could honor “Beauty and the Beast,” and fans of the movie “Up” could get a kit to create their own “adventure book.” Craft kits could also be offered so people could make and customize mini versions of rides, parks and ride vehicles.

Disney already sells so many items that it can be hard to imagine what more the company could offer, but these new items would likely be welcomed by many fans. Are there any other merchandise items that you think Disney should sell? Leave your ideas in the comments below!
