AWWWWW YEA! I forgot that my birthday this year is going to be FULL of Inside Out like last year's was all Monsters University. It's just perfect that these films usually come out by my bday and the merch usually starts rolling in during May. I will be for sure grabbing the Inside Out Little Golden Book, the Essential Guide and maybe some of the activity ones 🙂
Ah, you're right, that is perfect timing for your Bday! Agreed that we'll be picking up several of those too. We also get every coloring book that we come across as well as activity book since we know our little dude will want to color in them when he gets a little older. And…well, we still color from time to time too! 🙂
