Algumas curiosidades
Don’t forget to look for hidden Mickeys!
There are actually four different hidden Mickeys in the final scene, the Christmas scene. You will notice a Mickey nutcracker on the mantel over the fireplace. There is also a white Mickey peppermill in the kitchen. You will also notice a painting on the dining room wall that looks like Mickey. Lastly, and probably most obviously, there is a plush Mickey within the presents.

Unique way to expand the set
You will notice that to each side of the stage are areas where other animatronics appear. These are the members of the family that our host is interacting with. In each of the era scenes, these side rooms change during the show. There is a scrim over each side, and when the lights are out, the stages on the side rotate 180 degrees so that you get a brand new scene, thus keeping the story moving. You likely wouldn’t even notice the change is happening unless you were looking for it!

General Electric was the original sponsor
General Electric was the original sponsor for the attraction and was the collaborator on “Progressland” at the World’s Fair. The attraction featured all General Electric products and brand logos on all of the new technology and products that were features in each of the different eras of progress. In 1985, General Electric ceased as the sponsor for the attraction, which resulted in the video while you wait to board being changed to remove General Electric, and many of the logos have been removed or altered to no longer bear the General Electric name.

“The Best Time of Your Life”
When the attraction opened at the Magic Kingdom in 1975, it opened with the song, “The Best Time of Your Life” instead of the original song. In 1994 the attraction was restored to its original glory, and “There’s a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow” came back as the theme song for the attraction.

The beloved Sherman brothers
You may already know that Walt Disney had a great working relationship with his favorite songwriters, the Sherman brothers. Richard and Robert Sherman worked very closely with Walt and wrote many of Walt’s favorite songs, including “Feed the Birds,” which was his all-time favorite. They are also the writers of “There’s a Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow.” Walt worked closely with them on this song, so the song really does give you a little piece of Walt when you hear it.
