"The new Dream Party line fuses Hallmark's creativity and party expertise with the magic of Disney storytelling," said Josh Silverman, executive vice president global licensing, Disney Consumer Products. "Through décor, photo opportunities, games and other unique activities, Dream Party brings Disney and Marvel stories to life and provides kids more ways to celebrate with their favorite characters. For parents, Dream Party allows them to create an experience outside of the traditional party table setting."
"In today's world of social media, parents see all of the great birthday party ideas on Pinterest or on blogs but can feel overwhelmed trying to do it on their own," Cindy Mahoney, Vice President, Hallmark Licensing. "Dream Party brings clever, affordable products to parents that make it easy to pull together the party with the Disney characters their kids love." The Hallmark Dream Party collection includes products in three categories:
Set the Scene: Products that easily transform the party room into the world of a child's favorite character.

Prices range from $3.49 to $8.49.
Create the Adventure: Games and activities that coordinate with the party theme and keep young guests entertained. For example, each theme has a backdrop and props that can be used for picture-taking.
