Disney Trip as Christmas Present what to unwrap

[feistygalkmc]

We have a 16 month old that we ate surprising with a trip do Christmas. She really doesn't understand yet so my plan of doing a 'show stopper' just doesn't seem practical lol instead I got her very own suitcase from disney store along with a couple disney shirts and maps. Also picking up some of the magic towels from dollar tree and maybe some other little things like that go the trip. It isn't until May so I'm not getting a whole lot for her right now. I think she will be more excited to the suitcase to pull around than realize what its actually for lol

When I surprised my husband many years back for a Disney trip I got a hold of a park map. Don't remember if I already had one or asked Disney...not sure. Then I took a photo of him, trimmed it up and placed it on the map and said "You are here and wrote the dates." He really liked it.

As we are doing a cruise next year, we are getting the kids stuff they will/might need on the cruise. Along with a shirt saying "DCL Alaska" or something like that. That will be the last gift opened

You could do something along those lines.
Sunscreen, Disney hat, Disney Pins, Disney t-shirt(they have the t-shirts "I'm going to...)

I am gifting our trip to our 6 and 2.5 year olds. We went 2 years ago so the 6 year old "get's" it.

I have picked up things from the dollar store/walMart that are Disney themed, including new Mickey tops for everyone in the family from OldNavy. Those will all be wrapped separately.

The 'big' gift will be a large (diaper) box wrapped in Mickey Christmas Paper. Inside I want to fill it with helium balloons (likely will just be regular) in red, yellow and black, then at the bottom will be an invitation/ticket with our trip dates. I am going to have to word it as simply as I can because I really want DD to actually read it to us!
