Build Your Disney Side – Stick Figure Family

So how cute is this!? I was so excited to receive my Disney Insider email yesterday and it included a link to build your own Disney Side stick figure family. I immediately had to check it out and see what it was all about. There are lots of options to customize all the members of your family including pets. If you want to add a feature with a lock beside it, you will just need to click on it and give Disney your email address. Once you have completed your stick figure family, you can share your image on social media, download it or even have Disney make it into a FREE decal for you!

Check out www.buildyourdisneyside.com to create your own Disney Side stick figure family! Have fun!
