It’s Thanksgiving week, and the winter holidays are just around the corner!

We’ve been checking out all the holiday decorations around Disney World and eating all of the Christmas snacks! It’s a wonderful time of year at the Most Magical Place on Earth, and now every park and hotel is finally decorated. We stopped by Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge to check out the final gingerbread display and Christmas tree!
You can find several holiday gingerbread displays around a few of the Disney World Resort hotels. There is the iconic gingerbread house at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort, the life-size carousel at Disney’s Beach Club, and more. But over at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge, you’ll find the cutest life-sized gingerbread animals ever!

Say hello to Ginger, the life-sized baby gingerbread giraffe…

…Debra, the life-sized baby zebra…

…and new this year, Francisco, the Flamingo!

These adorable gingerbread animals arrive each year at Animal Kingdom Lodge to wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! Each year, this display continues to grow, bringing a new animal every time.

It takes a lot of gingerbread to create these life-sized animals. Check out the ingredients list below!

If you stop by to visit the animals, keep an eye out for the hidden Mickeys!

And while you’re at the hotel, take a look at the amazing Christmas tree (it’s pretty hard to miss)! This is one of the coolest and most beautiful trees at Disney World. It looks so amazing in the large lobby of the hotel.

Disney World is a magical place to spend the holidays. You can enjoy specialty food, drinks, and entertainment at the EPCOT International Festival of Holidays starting on November 29th or head over for Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party at Magic Kingdom or Jollywood Nights at Hollywood Studios. These three events are lots of fun for the whole family and will help you get into the holiday spirit.

We hope you enjoy your time at Disney World for the holidays! For more Disney news, keep following AllEars!
