Announcing Christmas Present

[dr&momto2boys]

We are planning a trip to WDW next September with my MIL, FIL, SIL and her family. As a Christmas present we are announcing that we are paying for their accomodations. We reserved a Grand Villa at BWV for the 10 of us to stay in. I'm looking for ideas to announce the present. Something to wrap up in a box for each family to open. (When we bought Disney trips for my side of the family we wrapped up personalized mouse ears for each person, a paper announcing the gift, and a guide book for each family.) At $19 each the mouse ears are a little pricey considering the money we've already put into the gift, and they already have guide books. Any cool ideas? I'm willing to spend money if it's cool.

Buy each of them a new travel bag and fill it with travel size shampoo etc.... Of course put something Disney in it too.

Have fun!!!

A Disney ornament or better yet make your own ornament with something on it & upload it to snapfish/shutterfly/winkflash/etc... & wrap it & give it to them to open.

I am thinking of the ornament with a picture of the castle or just words saying something like "Surprise.....we are going to see the mouse at his house in 2007".

Or they even have puzzles that you can make & have each person open up one or two pieces & put the puzzle together & have it say:

XXXXX Family Disney trip
XX/XX-XX/XX 2007
Boardwalk Villa's

And you can even have a picture of the castle faded in the background.

Or if you are into the family shirts, get one for everyone.

Thanks! These are some creative ideas! Much better than I could think of! Anyone else have more ideas?

I've heard of giving the family matching t-shirts with disney logos on them. They are cheap online at disney.com. I've also heard of families surprisine their children when they arrive at the airport, but my children wouldn't go for that, and then we'd have a long flight. good luck and have fun with it!!
