Check Out #FindingDory Toys and MORE at the Disney Store! #FindingDoryEvent

One of my favorite things about the release of a new Disney movie - aside from the movie itself, of course - is all of the fun new merchandise that hits the Disney store! While in LA on an all-expenses paid trip to attend the Finding Dory world premiere, I paid a visit to the Disney Store in the Glendale Gallaria mall, where we were treated to a little shopping trip for new Disney Pixar Finding Dory items and learned a little bit about the Disney Store Play Days program for summer 2016. Now, there are items available to support the release of the film at other stores as well, as you can see in this photo I took during the Finding Dory press junket. SO MANY FINDING DORY THINGS! YAY!

I fell in love with the Finding Dory swimwear and beach collection right away - I actually used my Disney Store gift card to purchase a Finding Dory beach towel for both myself and Angeline.

The Disney Store has a full line up of beachwear items for boys and girls, with everything from adorable bathing suits to goggles!

The boys swim shirts are a great way to keep kids protected from the sun while still having summertime fun!

And those flip flops?! Have you ever seen anything more adorable in your life?!

Of course, it's not all beach-themed, there are plenty of other household items, toys and clothing, just about everything you can think of! I bought Angeline a Hank insulated tumbler with a lid and straw, and she's already used it since I got home a week ago!
