3''Minnie's Bow-Toons'' are a SpinOff from ''WesternAnimation/MickeyMouseClubhouse'' and the specific episode "Minnie's Bow-tique". They debuted on November 14, 2011, in the United States and November 18 in the United Kingdom in celebration of Minnie's (and Mickey's, though the focus is on Minnie for once) birthday on the 18th. They are a miniseries of in-between shorts directly after the main shows, usually at 8:55 a.m. every day on Disney Junior.

5WesternAnimation/MinnieMouse runs the Bow-Tique with her best friend WesternAnimation/DaisyDuck, a specialty shop that sells only bows and bow ties. This show also showcases Clarabelle Cow, the cuckoo clock bird Cuckoo Loca, Minnie's pet kitten WesternAnimation/{{Figaro}}, and Minnie's nieces, Millie and Melody.

7Rather surprisingly, [[https://www.animationmagazine.net/tv/first-look-disney-junior-debuts-minnies-bow-toons-party-palace-pals/ it]] was eventually announced that new episodes would return in 2021 after a 5-year hiatus. The show is retooled a bit, and has Minnie, Daisy, and Cuckoo Loca running the Polka Dot Party Palace.

9----
10!!Tropes that apply to this show:
11
12* AnimateInanimateObject: Cuckoo Loca is a cuckoo clock bird who can actually move on her own.
13* ArtEvolution: Much like how ''WesternAnimation/MickeyAndTheRoadsterRacers'' and ''WesternAnimation/MickeyMouseFunhouse'' have evolved animation from ''Clubhouse'', ''Party Palace Pals'' has much more fluid and detailed animation than the original episodes.
14* BungledHypnotism: In "Freaky Fowl Day", Minnie and Daisy hypnotize Henny Penny so she can be relaxed enough to take a bath. Unfortunately, Clarabelle (who was also watching the swinging yo-yo) begins to act like a chicken. After the hypnotism is reversed, [[HereWeGoAgain Daisy and Cuckoo Loca switch places]].
15* ButtMonkey:
16** Daisy Duck is shown to be the butt of several gags when paired with Minnie.
17%%** Minnie, to a lesser extent is not immune either.
18* CuckooClockGag: Cuckoo-Loca is a mechanical bird who lives inside the clock at Minnie's Bow-tique. She went on to appear on ''WesternAnimation/MickeyAndTheRoadsterRacers'' as a Happy Helper along with Minnie and Daisy, as well as ''WesternAnimation/MickeyMouseFunhouse''.
19%%* CuteKitten: Figaro
20* DoItYourselfThemeTune: The theme song was sung by Minnie. Ditto for it's revival series.
21%%* {{Dogface}}: Surprisingly averted with Penelope Poodle.
22* DogStereotype: Penelope is a high-class female poodle.
23* FakeInteractivity: It's averted here. The episodes play out regularly without anyone talking to the audience.
24* FreakyFridayFlip: The plot of "Freaky Fowl Day" revolves around Clarabelle and Henny Penny switching their minds through BungledHypnotism (along with Daisy and Cuckoo Loca at the end).
25%%* FurryFemaleMane: Roxie Squirrel.
26* FurryReminder: A moo is heard when Clarabelle Cow slips on the water in "Leaky Pipes".
27* HereWeGoAgain: At the end of "Freaky Fowl Day", after Clarabelle and Henny Penny switch back to themselves, Daisy and Cuckoo Loca have switched places.
28-->'''Minnie:''' Oh dear!\
29'''Clarabelle:''' Now, where's that [[HypnoPendulum yo-yo]]?
30* HypnoFool: In "Freaky Fowl Day", Henny Penny is hypnotized to relax so she can take a bath, but ends up thinking she's Clarabelle, while Clarabelle conversely thinks she's Henny Penny. After Minnie switches them back, [[HereWeGoAgain the same thing happens between Daisy and Cuckoo Loca]].
31* HypnoPendulum: In "Freaky Fowl Day", Minnie and Daisy use a yo-yo to hypnotize Henny Penny into relaxing so they can give her a bath. [[BungledHypnotism Unfortunately, Clarabelle was also watching the yo-yo]], resulting in her acting like Henny Penny, and Henny Penny likewise begins to act and talk like Clarabelle.
32* InflatingBodyGag: Happens to Cuckoo-Loca in the Season 6 intro.
33* {{Slapstick}}: Daisy (and sometimes Minnie) are put through a lot of abuse in each episode.
34* SpinOff: From ''WesternAnimation/MickeyMouseClubhouse''.
35* VoicesAreMental: In "Freaky Fowl Day", when Henny Penny thinks she's Clarabelle, she speaks in the latter's voice. At the end, when Daisy and Cuckoo Loca also switch places, they speak in each other's voices also.
36* WrenchWench: Clarabelle Cow usually serves as a mechanic in many episodes.
