Disney Moms Dress Up In Costumes To Keep Kids Smiling At Home.

After weeks of staying home to limit the spread of the novel coronavirus, many families are getting a little stir crazy.

Kasey Potts of Los Angeles, California, and Kelly Stevenson of St. Augustine, Florida, are two moms who love all things Disney. As the friends searched for new ways to keep their little ones safely entertained, they came up with a brilliant idea. They could dress up as their favorite characters and share the pictures online to make their community smile!

The adorable photos were an instant success! All that was missing was a hashtag to loop in other bored Disney fans, which the two mom’s quickly created.

“We were putting together a post of what would be a collage of six mom’s photos, and they looked so great that we thought we should make a funny hashtag to go along with them,”Kelly said. “The next day we got this huge response. It turned out better than we could have imagined.â€

Kelly said her kids have loved seeing the pictures of these real Disney moms just as much as she has.
