    “Glow at Home” Hats Interact with Disney’s TV Christmas Special

    Disney is always coming up with new ways to make viewing Disney specials more interactive for folks at home and this year you can Glow with the Show from home during “Disney Parks Magical Christmas Celebration”.  The special airs on Christmas morning on ABC.

    Viewers will be able to “Glow at Home” during select performances in the holiday special, thanks to the brand new “Made with Magic 3.0: Connected Ear Hat” and the Shop Disney Parks app. Leveraging Bluetooth technology, the Shop Disney Parks app enables viewers wearing the new 3.0 edition ear hats at home to sync with the Christmas Day special playing on the viewers’ TVs or other devices. Viewers will feel like they are part of the show.

    Made with Magic Ears

    The app also has a remote-control feature to adjust the ear colors and speed of the strobe – a brand-new feature for the Made with Magic Ear Hats. If viewers at home don’t have the special edition ear hats, the Shop Disney Parks app will allow them to enjoy a second screen experience as their mobile phone comes alive, mirroring the spectacle on-screen during select performances. The Made with Magic 3.0: Connected Ear Hat and the interactive ear hat remote control feature on the Shop Disney Parks app became available in November.

    Holiday magic is endless as Disney theme parks transform into winter wonderlands filled with seasonal attractions, joyful entertainment, festive deìcor and special treats that make every day feel like a holiday. The spirit of the season shines even brighter in these magical places where families share traditions and make memories together.

    Disney Parks presents a celebrity showcase of seasonal sights, performances and traditions, including the beloved Christmas day parade, December 25 from 10 a.m. – 12 p.m. EST on The ABC Television Network.
