The heart-warming video of the same is doing the rounds on the internet.

The Disneyland workers dressed as popular cartoon characters Pluto, Minnie and Mickey at the theme park in California used American Sign Language to say, “Nice to meet you” and “I love you”. Watching their gestures, the young boy embraced them wholeheartedly.
