Brenda Song is ready for some family time this summer!
The actress, 37, was among the star-studded guest list at Gold House’s Fourth Annual Gold Gala, a celebration of the organization’s 2025 A100 List, which highlights the 100 “most impactful Asian Pacific leaders in culture and society,” on Saturday, May 10.
While chatting with PEOPLE at the event, held at The Music Center in Los Angeles, Song revealed how she, Macaulay Culkin and their two young sons plan to enjoy their summer as a family — starting with her top bucket list item for the season.
“I mean, honestly, I want to go to Disneyland with the kids. I’m ready,” Song said. “We haven’t gone yet this year, and that’s crazy for us, because we are obsessed with Disneyland, but it’s been a busy year.”

The star — who starred in Netflix’s hit series Running Point this year, and is currently getting ready to film season 2 — added that she’s “very grateful” for the chaos, but is “just looking forward to … getting in the pool with the kids, things like that.”
“I want something simple,” she continued of her hopes for the upcoming summer season. “I want easy.”
Most of all, Song wants to have “a little bit of time this summer to, like, to be a mom,” she told PEOPLE. “That’s what I’m hoping for.”
As for Mother’s Day, Song wants to spend a similarly chill time with Culkin, 44, and sons Dakota and Carson.
When asked about her plans for the holiday, the Suite Life of Zack & Cody alum admitted, “I hope we’re doing absolutely nothing.”
“All I want to do as mom is to do nothing and just to hang out with my baby boys and see my mama,” continued Song. “That’s all I want to do.”
“I mean, if you have kids, you know that is the ideal Mother’s Day,” she added.

While chatting with PEOPLE earlier this year, Song shared a similar sentiment, revealing that she hopes to “take a deep breath” this Mother’s Day.
“As moms, you are running around all the time,” the working mother of two said. “You have so much on your plate, even when you don’t realize it, just because [of] your kids. I mean, these little people depend on you, [and] you do everything for them. And you forget to sometimes take care of yourself.”
“That’s what I really love about a day like Mother’s Day,” Song added, “where it’s just you take a second to just take a deep breath. And you know what? We deserve a little bit of appreciation. Moms do a lot.”
