Disney’s The Little Mermaid Walt Disney Signature Collection released on Digital on 2/12 and releases on 4K Ultra HD and Blu-ray™ on 2/26. The Little Mermaid released 30 years ago in 1989, I was in college at the time and remember going with my friends. We were all singing along with Ariel and all the lovely songs. I introduced The Little Mermaid to my daughters years ago and they have adored Ariel ever since. One Hallowwen, my daguhter even dressed as Ariel and both of my daughters wore out their Disney Ariel costume.

We scoured our home high and low for all things mermaid themed in order to get our mermaid on for our The Little Mermaid Viewing Party. Sadly, the old Ariel costume no longer fits either of my daughters. Here are some fabulous Little Mermaid products you could use to host your very own The Little Mermaid Viewing Party.
