Birthday Button question

I know I've seen children walking around Disney with birthday buttons. I was wondering....can adults get buttons, too? We are taking a trip for my husband's 40th, and we'll be at MK on his actual birthday.

Not sure if this is just for kids....but aren't we ALL kids at Disney??? :)

We went for my parents' anniversary they gave them Happy Anniversary buttons, as well as "My First Disney Vacation" buttons, so I'm sure they would give him a birthday button! We got them from a CM at a store in Downtown Disney, but I'm guessing you can get them from your hotel CMs? Maybe in the gift shop? They were free...yay!

Yes, I've seen and known of adults that have done this. You get one for free from any of the parks' guest services.

Yes...the buttons are free and are available to ANYONE of any age..LOL

You can get buttons for the following:

My first trip
Happy Birthday
Happy Anniversary
and Just Married.

Just stop in at Guest Relations when you first walk into the park.

ALL CMs are supposed to acknowledge the buttons, but that's not always the case.

My mom, Kait and I got and wore Birthday Buttons on our birthday trip last year. They've changed them since then though. We went in August and still got the old ones - different ones for each park and one for DtD. (I like the Epcot one best) Now it's the same button at all the parks, but it has a space for your name.

Yep - I got one 2 years ago, and my sister got one yesterday. And for my sister, every time she would buy something at one of the snack stands, they would give her extra "shhhh... don't tell anyone - it's for your birthday!" She got a free cream cheese pretzel, a large water, a coffee, french fries, and can't remember what else!

Blessings,
