The rain in the Meatballs mission made my screen flicker; for a second I thought the game had glitched for good. I stood in front of a single, battered collar and felt the tension of a missed secret — the kind that sits in your inventory as if daring you to notice it. I’ll walk you through every Memento so you stop finding them by accident and start collecting them on purpose.
All Mementos in Disney Dreamlight Valley
I see players stop mid-run whenever a sparkly object drops on the ground — that pause tells you everything you need to know.
There are six Mementos you can collect across quests and visits with villagers in Disney Dreamlight Valley. Treat them like collectible beats in a playlist — five will sit in your personal inventory and one appears as placeable furniture.
- The Secret Journal from Jasmine
- Kaleidoscope from Alice
- Birthday Party Invitation from Cogsworth and Lumière
- Nostalgic Instant Photos from Cinderella
- New Comfort Bear from Joy and Sadness
- Well-Loved Dog Collar from Lady and Tramp
How many Mementos are there in Disney Dreamlight Valley?
Six total. Five are quest items that remain in your inventory after their missions end; the New Comfort Bear is a furniture piece you add to your decor menu.
What are Mementos in Disney Dreamlight Valley?
When people keep a single photograph on their desk, it tells a story you don’t need them to explain — Mementos do the same in-game.
Mementos are items that remain after finishing specific friendship or story missions because they carry emotional weight for the characters involved. They often spark unusual events — from sudden storms to strange doppelgängers — and they tie into a larger mystery that threads through the game.
What do Mementos do?
Beyond nostalgia, Mementos form part of a larger quest chain that leads to adding Pluto as a Companion. Some pieces trigger unique scenes during the missions that give context to a character’s past; others are simply collectible keepsakes that feed into the bigger storyline.
How to get all Mementos in Disney Dreamlight Valley
On any given day I’ll see guides littered with half-truths — the difference between those and a clean roadmap is simple: precise order and the right conversations with villagers.
Below I’ll break down how each Memento is obtained, who gives it, and the quest stage when it appears. This is written for players on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, Xbox, and PC (Steam/Epic), and it reflects the way Square Enix and Disney staged these items in their seasonal updates.
The Secret Journal — Jasmine
The journal becomes available after you finish Jasmine’s level 10 friendship quest titled Wild, Wild Wishes. You first see it during her level 7 quest, Hold and Cold, but the item only ends up in your inventory once you complete her full friendship track.
Kaleidoscope — Alice
Alice’s Kaleidoscope shows up during Mimsy Were the Borogoves at friendship level four, but you only receive it as a permanent item after completing her level 10 quest, A Very Merry Unbirthday.
Birthday Party Invitation — Cogsworth and Lumière
This invitation appears during A Guide to Better Castle-Keeping, a mission inside the Beauty and the Beast section of the map. You encounter it while progressing through the Castle-Keeping quests for Cogsworth and Lumière.
Nostalgic Instant Photos — Cinderella
Cinderella drops the Instant Photos during her level 7 friendship mission, A Dream Come True. You’ll find the pictures on the floor of the Fairy Godmother’s house — grab them before they disappear.
New Comfort Bear — Joy and Sadness
Getting the Comfort Bear is the longest thread — you need to complete every friendship quest from both Joy and Sadness. Throughout their missions you collect parts of the bear and assemble it during Sadness’s level 10 finale, Create a Bear. When the mission ends, the bear appears in your furniture inventory rather than your personal item list.
- Joy: Capture the Sun; Mood Swings; Imagination Land; Dream a Little Dream
- Sadness: Storm’s A-Brewin’; The Fortress of Saditude; The Big Worry; Create a Bear
How do I get the New Comfort Bear?
Complete every Joy and Sadness friendship quest listed above, then finish Sadness’s level 10 quest, Create a Bear. The assembled bear lands in your furniture menu after that mission.
Well-Loved Dog Collar — Lady and Tramp
Find the collar while playing through the Lady and the Tramp Meatballs mission. This one appears later in that story arc, so you’ll first need to complete Canine Courtship and The Jailbreak to reach it.
What to do with Mementos in Disney Dreamlight Valley
I watched a group chat argue for an hour over whether to sell, store, or display every piece — the answer is a bit of all three, but mostly story-first.
Collect every Memento and you’ll be set to add Pluto as a Companion — the final sequence tying these items into the broader plot hasn’t fully gone live yet, so the specific next steps remain pending. For now, treat each piece as both a collectible and a plot marker: place the New Comfort Bear if you like staging scenes; keep the five small items in your inventory for the moment when the game calls for them.
The hunt for Mementos can feel like finding a forgotten vinyl in a thrift shop, and then like following a thread through a hedge maze — both rewarding and a little stubborn. If you want, I can map these into a checklist for Switch, PlayStation, Xbox, or PC so you can farm any missed drops; which platform should I prioritize?
