By Jocelyn Buhlman

There are lots of ways to cool down on a hot July day: ice cream, a pool party, a strategically planned trip to a Disney park, or even adding a little bit of winter magic… It’s true—nothing chases away the dog days of summer like Christmas in July! We experienced holiday cheer at Walt Disney World today, through sneak peeks into some of the parks’ holiday offerings that are coming this fall. So pull on your winter scarves, shake your jingle bells, and turn on some merry tunes, because here’s a special Christmas in July celebration just for you.
