Disneyland Resort is offering several limited-time family activities and experiences for Summer 2026, including a new complimentary “Mickey’s Park Rangers” activity book.
The new activity guide is part of Disneyland’s family-focused summer offerings, encouraging guests to explore attractions and lands around the Rivers of America, Pirate’s Lair on Tom Sawyer Island, the Disneyland Railroad, and more.
The front cover of the booklet features colorful illustrated map artwork inspired by the Rivers of America area, along with Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Pluto, and Huey, Dewey, and Louie exploring the wilderness as park rangers.
Inside the opening pages, guests are welcomed by Park Ranger Mickey, who introduces the activity guide and encourages guests to complete puzzles and challenges to earn Ranger Stamps throughout the park.
The booklet also includes a “3 Steps to Being a Mickey’s Park Ranger” spread, explaining how guests can explore, discover, and collect stamps by completing activities around Disneyland. A Ranger Pledge activity lets guests officially join Mickey’s Park Rangers.
The first section focuses on Pirate’s Lair on Tom Sawyer Island. Guests can complete a “Spelunking” word puzzle tied to the island’s caves and a “Picnicking” activity that challenges guests to solve food-themed clues.
One of the more detailed activities is an “Orienteering” challenge using a stylized map of Pirate’s Lair on Tom Sawyer Island. Guests follow clues around the map to uncover the pirate captain’s hidden item.
The “Botany” activity teaches younger guests about the plants found throughout the island while completing a word puzzle, and “Blacksmithing” asks guests to decode hidden words by crossing out listed terms.
A “Pirate Lore” puzzle uses a coded skeleton alphabet for guests to decipher a hidden pirate message hidden inside the Shipwreck area of the island.
The guide then shifts to the Rivers of America section, beginning with “Navigation,” where guests identify rivers across the United States on a map puzzle.
“Canoeing” references Davy Crockett’s Explorer Canoes and features a lyric puzzle based on “Row, Row, Row Your Boat,” while “Rafting” challenges guests to determine which ducklings rode together to Pirate’s Lair on Tom Sawyer Island.
Another activity titled “Birdwatching” has guests identifying bird names by removing extra letters from scrambled words while spotting wildlife around the Rivers of America.
The next section highlights the Mark Twain Riverboat and Sailing Ship Columbia. “Animal Friendship” asks guests to identify animals around Mickey Mouse, while “Paddlewheeling” includes a drawing activity to complete the missing parts of the Mark Twain Riverboat.
Guests can also complete a frog race logic puzzle in “Frog-Jumping” and learn semaphore signaling in a “Semaphore” communication activity aboard the Sailing Ship Columbia.
Creative activities continue with “Flagmaking,” where guests design their own ship flag, and “Shipbuilding,” which lets guests draw a custom masthead for their ship.
“Knotwork” teaches guests how sailors use knots and includes a coded message puzzle using rope knot values assigned to letters of the alphabet.
The Disneyland Railroad section of the booklet includes several train-themed educational activities. “Codebreaking” teaches guests how to decode Railroad Morse code, while “Sightseeing” has guests rebuilding scrambled words spotted from the train.
“Conducting” focuses on train terminology and challenges guests to complete missing words related to railroad operations.
One of the final pages, “Eagle Eye,” encourages guests riding the Disneyland Railroad to spot animals inside the Grand Canyon and Primeval World dioramas.
The “Paleontology” activity asks guests to unscramble dinosaur features associated with Brontosaurus, T. Rex, Stegosaurus, Triceratops, and Pteranodon.
The final page includes a “Railroad Lookout” animal puzzle and the “Master Ranger Badge” checklist page. Guests who complete enough activities and collect all five Ranger Stamps can show the booklet at a Ranger Reward Spot to receive a Master Ranger Badge sticker.
The booklet can be stamped throughout the experience and later exchanged for a keepsake sticker reward.
For a limited time beginning May 22, guests can pick up the complimentary Mickey’s Park Rangers activity book at select retail locations on the west side of Disneyland park.
Guests looking for even more family-friendly summer offerings can also check out the complimentary Youngling Saber Building Expo – A Loth-Cat Crew Experience at Savi’s Workshop in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. The limited-time experience lets young guests participate in an interactive lightsaber-building adventure alongside the Loth-Cat Crew without purchasing the full Savi’s Workshop experience upfront.
