Can you believe it’s been almost 30 years since Disney Princess Ariel and her under the sea friends made their debut in “The Little Mermaid” on the big screen? On Nov. 17, the Walt Disney Animation Studios classic film will turn 30, but this summer we are making a splash at Walt Disney World Resort and Disneyland Resort with a new collection celebrating the 30th anniversary!
First up, featured above is a swimmingly fun Minnie Mouse ear headband featuring translucent sequins and vibrant seashells with the quote: “mermaid hair, don’t care!”

Life truly is the bubbles under the sea, and now your life can be filled with them, too! Shell-abrate good times with a shell-encrusted bubble wand!

Grab a mug or tumbler to be the girl who has everything and quench your thirst while you explore the world above!

Got mermaid hair? Let the human world know that you’re no poor unfortunate soul when you rock this hat.

Make Ariel “part of your world” and fill this fin-tastic journal with your wildest dreams.
That isn’t everything, though. We have gadgets and gizmos aplenty, including a phone case, luggage tag, backpack and plenty of other thingamabobs to flip your fins to!
All of these treasures and more are now available across merchandise locations at both Walt Disney World Resort and Disneyland Resort. Not visiting Disney Parks & Resorts anytime soon? You’re in luck! The Minnie ear headband is also available on shopDisney.com with more items from the collection coming soon.
