The comments section is filled with over 1,000 compliments to the cast member, thanking them for providing such a magical experience to Charlie and her family.
“This literally made me cry,” one user commented. “Disney is a magical and beautiful place full of love! I would love to see her play like this.”
Others have urged parents to recognize a cast member with a complement using the My Disney Experience app.
There have been several reports of these types of exchanges lately. ABC mentioned That 11-year-old Zoe Tabley had a similar experience with Princess Anna on her recent trip to Disneyland.
Tapley shared that she met an occasional cast member who knew the basics of ASL in the past but was blown away by the depth of Anna’s knowledge. “They engaged in a whole conversation on ASL about Zoe’s favorite rides at Disneyland and how she was adopted from the Congo,” ABC wrote.
In addition to learning ASL, Cast members seem increasingly attuned to the needs of their younger guests. Mickey recently spent some extra time comforting a military kid who was struggling with separation anxiety. Minnie doubled back on spending time with a young guest using a walker that couldn’t keep up with the crowd.
