Disney Ideas to Surprise/Thank Parents?

[Yumi696]

Hi all!

So my family and I are heading to Disney in June in celebration of my graduation from college. I jokingly told them a couple of years ago that we should go to Disney for my graduation, and they took it to heart. It is an incredibly expensive gift, and one that I am extremely thankful for.

I want to surprise thank them in some way, and I was wondering if anyone has any Disney-specific ideas of surprise/thanks. I would love any idea, from small to big.

Thanks!

Check out Disney Florist or there is another company that does things. I think it is called gift of a lifetime.

Thanks so much!

Are they the ones that deliver straight to your room?

I have kids your age, 2 still in college and 1 just graduated and to be honest, I would feel uncomfortable for them to actually buy us something. I know how tight money is. I would maybe surprise them with a meal or maybe the dessert party. Just the fact your are graduating is thanks enough, at least it is for us! Congrats!

Maybe consider getting Memory Maker for the trip or perhaps treat to mini golf or another activity.
Also - you could pick out a Disney figurine or collectible for them that they might like.

How about a photo book to present after the trip? I think it would be a lovely gift of the memories created.

I have done a couple of "thank you's" for my mom and once for my aunt along with my cousin on past trips. the first time I bought two mickey wine glasses, a mickey wine topper and had them sent to the resort. the concierge was nice enough to place it out on the bed on our last nite so she would get a surprise when we returned (they don't always do this but it didn't hurt to ask). I had bought a picture frame as well well and placed a little thank you note inside it.
the last trip my cousin and I bought 4 wine glasses total and a nice bottle of wine in epcot. we ordered pizza one nite from room service and sent our moms out of the room for a bit and set up a little pizza party with the thank you wine and glasses out on our patio.
just a small gesture but they appreciated it and now we all have fun wine glasses to use at home and remind us of our trip
