The last few weeks have been a huge adjustment. After a fun-filled summer, my son is now in Kindergarten. It’s been a big change for him. He did go to preschool, but it was only Monday through Thursday for a few hours and he had the most amazing teacher who just “knew him” and all of his little quirks. Plus, he was only in a class of 12. Now, he’s a big boy going to elementary school in a big class of 22. It’s been a tough adjustment, but he’s doing well and we are SO proud of him!
At school, they have a chart where their day is rated green, yellow or red. He’s had 2 yellow days but the rest have been green which is really good for him – Hayden has trouble transitioning from one activity to the next and I was worried it was going to be more of an issue. Since he’s been doing so well, I wanted to treat him to some new toys. He’s been so excited about Disney Planes coming out {I was able to get a sneak peek but he hasn’t seen it yet – I think it will be a Daddy/Son experience} and I knew that he would love to get the toys to add to his Disney Pixar Cars collection.
We headed to Walmart to pick up some groceries for the week and when I told him we could head back to the toy section to pick out some Disney Planes and Disney Pixar Cars toys since he’s been doing so well at school, he was SO excited! As soon as we got back to the toy department, we saw a huge display of toys that he made a beeline for.
Hayden already has a carrying case featuring Disney Pixar Cars and it’s filled with some of his favorites. He wanted to add some Disney Planes characters to his collection and create a whole world of fun! When Hayden gets new toys, he likes to create videos showing them off and they often interact with all of the other toys and play sets in his room – he’s got a huge imagination on him!
I think Hayden was a bit overwhelmed with all of the cool and Disney Pixar Cars toys at Walmart. There was a lot to look at and when I told him he could pick out a few toys, he just kept circling the display over and over again. I have to admit, there were some pretty cool toys and I kept steering him toward ones I would like!
There were also more Disney Pixar Cars and Disney Planes toys in an aisle in addition to the display and we spent quite a bit of time looking at those too! I had to tell Hayden a few times that we had to get going and put back some of the boxes that he had thrown into our cart. I thought for sure that he was going to want to get one of the big play sets like the Disney Planes Aircraft Carrier Play Set {so cool!} or the Disney Pixar Cars Stunt Racer Track Set but he actually wanted to get a few of the die-cast singles of characters from both Disney Pixar Cars and Disney Planes. He picked out a few and then we headed home to have more fun!
I mentioned earlier that Hayden likes to make videos right away of his new toys. He has seen videos on You Tube before of people showing off toys so he likes to do it too. Below is his quick video of his toys – it’s actually not as detailed as they usually are, he wanted to get back to playing!
Hayden is loving his die-cast Disney Pixar Cars and Disney Planes toys from Walmart. He mentioned that he wanted a few of the different play sets too, so it will definitely be going on his Christmas list. If your little one is looking for Disney Planes and Disney Pixar Cars toys, Walmart is the place to go!

We bought the El Chupcalbra plane for my son he loves it. We saw the movie opening weekend it was great.
I can’t wait to take my son!
my girls is seven and would love (to see the movie again and) ALL OF THESE 🙂
We haven’t seen the movie yet (plan on it this week!) but I bet my sons are going to go totally crazy for Planes and need the toys!
we cannot wait to see this movie, what cute toys to go along with the movie. Great ideas to stock up for Christmas! Thanks!
I love El Chu! He is so awesome, my daughter for some reason wasn’t a huge fan of Cars but loves PLANES.
Looks like a fab shopping trip to reward a great first week of school! We adore all things Disney in this house too!
We thought Planes was just going to be a cheap copy of cars but we really ended up enjoying it
Oh my goodness, he is such a big boy now! I am glad he found some fun new toys to celebrate his big step.
Awww, love the first day of K pic.
My boys were obsessed with the Cars toys, definitely need to check out the Planes ones!
My son got one of the planes for his birthday this summer and loves playing with it. We saw Disney Planes while on our Disney Cruise and the whole family really enjoyed it.
The Planes display with all the awesome toys is such a great product to give to a loved one for a Birthday or Christmas. Disney makes such awesome movies and Disney Planes is such a great family movie!
What a great selection of Cars. I will have to head to Walmart for my nephew. He loves this movie.
Congrats on the first day of school!
i can’t wait to see this either- the toys are great- love the dreadlocks!!
SO fun! My boys are obsessed with Planes! They would LOVE to do a little shopping trip like this! 😉
My nephew saw the movie adn is in love now. I will have to pick up some of these toys for him!
Hayden is too cute for words!! I will have to take my boy to the store and check these out! He loves these toys!
Ah, I love Hayden’s video! Maggie flips out each time we see the Planes toys at the store too! They all look like so much fun!
I had no idea that Walmart carried all of this! I can’t wait to see the movie.
Cute I have heard only good things about this movie!
I can’t believe the assortment of available toys. What a dream for a child (or Hayden). 🙂
Those are really cute!
(Disney Planes toy review) The little 5 year old boy that I babysit loves planes anything!
We have looked at the Disney Planes toy section at Walmart more times than I care to count and we’re looking forward to getting the opportunity to see the movie … if things would only calm down and give us some free time!
When my son starts Kindergarten I will have to make a prop like you did. It will be nice to have these for the memories.
These toys are SO cute! I actually just sent some off to a friend yesterday – he will be so excited to get some PLANES toys in the mail!
Cars and now planes – so much fun to play with. Movie tie-ins galore!
I know how your son felt with TOO many choices. I have the same problem when I go shopping.
