HELP!!!!! Passports, ID, Coupons????

[clovicelee]

I know I keep putting posts not understanding things, but I am a newbie. I keep reading posts about Epcot passports, ID Cards and Coupons. I keep looking or an explanation of these items but can't find one. What is the purpose of these, I really want the kids to get the FULL Disney experience so I am game for anything out there I just need to be able to explain it.

Passports- In world showcase at Epcot as you travel around the different countries, kids can get a CM to sign an Epcot passport book. The Epcot map will post location of these stations. They will give a stamp for the country as well as write child's name in the language of the country, etc. These passports can be purchased there- but they are expensive and plain. Several of the wonderful designers here on the boards make their own varieties of the Epcot passport that can be printed out at home and bound together.

ID cards- just something simple in case your child gets lost.

Coupon books- Many designers have created "coupons" that you give to your child as a means of promising them special treats at the world. i.e. a mickey ice cream bar, mickey ears, a popcorn bucket. Simply a way for the kids to get more excited about the trip and the goodies to come. You can print these out from the designers and choose as many or as few as you are willing to purchase for your child. There are numerous options and designs out there.

Hope this helps.
Good Luck!!

Hi Hon
I can explain the Coupons one for you

Ok so I am taking my grand-daughter this Jan to Disney World. I want a little something special to happen for her. I've been to Disney enough to know that alot of "Magic' does happen there but sometimes you need to help it along. So I know we are going to Downtown Disney for a day. I make her a little coupon for one of the stores there or for a snack treat,,and the night before i leave it on her pillow or put it in an envelope and pretend someone has tucked it under the door for her-"A Little Magic"


Example Of a Coupon I made for her

Here is an example of one of the envelopes I've made for her
you can also --print-cut-fold-glue and then put a few treats inside.

Another idea is to fill up some baggies with sweet treats and staple a bag topper onto it----double back to room and leave for kids


example
Bag Topper -print-cut --fold --staple
