First, make sure to pick up the new Disney’s Animal Kingdom 25th Anniversary collection, available starting April 21 for a limited time at Island Mercantile, Discovery Trading Company, and Mombasa Marketplace.

If you’re anything like me, you’re a foodie! And throughout Earth Month and on the 25th anniversary of Disney’s Animal Kingdom, you can enjoy new food and beverage offerings that celebrate this unique park.
Above is the Colossal Elephant Roll and the 25th Anniversary Alive with Magic Cupcake! Over at Tiffins Restaurant, guests can enjoy a 25th Anniversary Dessert Platter and a 25th Anniversary Earth Tart is available over at Tusker House Restaurant.
Starting April 16, Disney PhotoPass will have new photo ops in celebration of Earth Month and the park’s 25th anniversary! Fun fact, the 25th-anniversary sign prop is made completely out of recycled materials, including upcycled sign backers as well as cast member costumes and patches.
Make sure to visit The Animation Experience at Conservation Station where you can learn how to draw new characters like Dumbo, Terk from “Tarzan,” Crush or Bruce from “Finding Nemo,” Tigger from “Winnie the Pooh” or Simba from “The Lion King”! From April 16 to April 23, Wilderness Explorers can earn a special badge by completing a limited-time nature challenge.
