So I have planned a trip for my Wife and Daughters 3,6. My plan for surprise is to tell them i have to go on travel for work and they are driving me to airport. When we are on the way there the plan is to give them both gift bags with various things for vacation eventually working their way down the bag to the magic band and autograph book. Looking for some creative or good ideas to add.

So far (all disney themed)

Autograph book
Pick a pearl charm
Disney tooth brush
chap-stick
magic band

Let me know what you think.

Thanks

Items to entertain them on the plane (unless you had already planned that for the carry on bag).
Maybe a small activity book, a small pack of crayons, stuffed toy, etc.
 

I do little gift bags for the kids for all of our trips - some items may vary depending on where we are going (one year when we went to Hawaii, everyone got hawaiian themed luggage tags and temporary tattoos). In every bag, no matter where we go, is a new travel sized hand sanitizer (we like the Bath and Body Works ones) and a pair of socks for the plane (now known in our house as "airplane socks").
 
Can you talk to my husband? Give him some tips? He would never do anything like this.
 
Stuffed animal, Disney themed fruit snacks, Check the $1 spot at Target ...they recently had Frozen themed bags, coloring books, hair ties, bracelets, etc.....
 
We did a surprise bag for our DD when we surprised her with a trip last year.

I got a Monsters U string backpack
Autograph book and clickable sharpies
Coin book
Disney temporary tattoos
Reading level appropriate Disney books
Frozen tee shirt

I didn't put the Magic Band in there because I didn't want to risk losing it before we got to the airport.

Despite the Disney-stuffed backpack, she didn't figure out where we were going until we were checking in to MDE.
 
I'm putting one together myself already and I'm not going until next June. So far I have Disney-themed...

Personalized Bags (from Etsy)
Throw Blankets
No-Show Socks
 
Some great ideas so far. Also consider:
* mickey snacks -- you can find disney fruit snacks or the like
* disney band aids
* glow bracelets or necklaces
* target dollar bin and the dollar store often have these little kits with a mini coloring book, 4 crayons and stickers that are disney
* stickers
* small toy or plush -- tsum tsums might prove great for this purpose
* books and/or movie
 
tsum tsums
lego Disney-figure blind bags (if they like legos)
disney coloring books for the plane
