Disney teamwork, home

bags of Christmas goodies by Christmas tree
Couldn’t fit 40 goodie bags in the round box. Nice challenge to have.

Today, December 20, 2025 the Christmas goodie bags we assembled yesterday get delivered to Walt Disney World (WDW) Cast Members.

Chapin got to do the backstage (home backstage) work, feel the intent and anticipation, and now, enjoy the gift received when you make others happy.

Every Cast Member’s role contributes to the paying Guests’ experience and memories that last a lifetime. That’s a given. It’s the reason we (Disney) exist.

However, each individual Cast Member gets to choose to also do it backstage at work (WDW).

It’s bringing the ‘Disney Way’ full-circle.

It’s the essence of “If Disney Ran Your Life”.

Do you still send Christmas cards?

Three different messages in each pack, allowing for some audience personalization without having to buy multiple boxes.

Do you still send Christmas cards?

Do you send them digitally or do you still send old fashioned paper cards using snail-mail?

Wait, it gets more interesting.

Do you secretly believe that the size of a Christmas gift price tag reflects how much you love someone?

Yes. Totally believe this. Christmas is that one time – even bigger than a birthday – when if ever there was a time to be extravagant, it’s Christmas.

But.

Come on people.

You can’t be serious.

What about…

We’ve heard this story since we were kids, “shall i play for you pah-rump-pah-pah-bum.“

Christmas means nothing

walt disney dna
Walt was a genius at telling stories.

Christmas means nothing.

What?

America stereotypically creates a retail frenzy (lasting 60 days) right after Halloween, peaking on black-Friday and cyber-Monday, and continuing even after Christmas day with clearance frenzy.

Back to what.

Christmas means nothing without Easter.

Easter retail is amateurish compared to Christmas shopping. 

In a busy, distracted world, it’s tempting to miss the awe and wonder of Easter.
