We're leaving for WDW in 9 days :banana: and I haven't told my DS 6 (5/18) and DS 19 mos. that we're going.

Any suggestions on how to tell him?

P.S. We're driving to WDW? :moped:

That is a good question...

You could tell them they are going to the dentist or something...and then when they are in the car, drive for a while, and THEN tell them you are going to Disney.

Thats a fun way...

Other than that, Im not sure...There are so many ways!!!

I think its important to tell the 6 year old so they can plan abit and get excited. One time we picked up a huge Mickey and Minnie and put them in there chairs with invites to DisneyWorld in there hands.

We are going to WDW in August for my sons B-Day(he will be six) :bday: he has no idea! :rolleyes1 We are telling him 4 days before we leave. :hourglass

He loves playing hang man, :confused3 and since he is into making sentences at school, we play hang man with sentences all the time!!! So we are going to have his "family B-day dinner" :grouphug: and tell him he has to figure out (by playing hang-man) what his gift is! of course it will say
:wave: WE ARE GOING TO DISNEY WORLD :rotfl:

We are going for a late Bday present for my daughter.. She thinks we are going to Sea World. This is going to be her first time flying also.. We are not going to say a word to her. I want her to be suprised each step of the way.. going to the airport...to seeing DisneyWorld. What could be more magic then that?
