Some of the Disney theme parks have closed to help try and stop the spread of the coronavirus.

There are six Disneylands around the world in California, Florida, Paris, Tokyo, Shanghai, and Hong Kong.

Parks in Florida and California, along with the Disneyland Paris resort, are being shut until the end of the month.

The California park has said they will donate their unsold food to a food bank charity in order to help local people.

Disney says the closures are "in the best interest of our guests and employees".

The company has also said that there have been no reported cases of coronavirus at the resort in California.

Hotels in the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California will stay open until Monday to give guests staying there a chance to figure out what they'd like to do next.

Other parks elsewhere in the world had already closed, including those in Hong Kong, Tokyo (Japan) and Shanghai (China).

Some of the areas in the Shanghai resort have reopened and Disney says it's doing lots of things to try and keep people there safe:

"Every guest entering Shanghai Disney Resort will be required to undergo temperature screening procedures upon their arrival...and will be required to wear a mask during their entire visit. Guests will also be reminded to maintain respectful social distances at all times while in stores, queues and restaurants."
