help with letters/treat surprises...etc.

[melinda1207]

I'd like to send a letter(s) to my kids before Disney World & leave things for them during our trip.
Son Dawson (turns 8 on April 3) & my daughter, Belle, is 5.
They like Mickey & Minnie, Star Wars, Lady & The Tramp, she likes the princesses & he likes Phineus & Ferb (no Pooh).....
Can someone put together letter(s) for them before &/or during our trip. We leave on May 26 for 7 days. I'd love to mail them letters now & closer & have something to leave in the room for them while there. We are staying at the Caribbean Beach Resort.
Can't think of anything else you'd need....let me know if I left something out!
THANKS so much....you disigners are WONDERFUL to all of us who can't do it but are super excited!!!

If you can customize them yourself on word, donatalie and jtanddolly have really super cute ones in their shared folders. I stumbled across them the other day and now have more stuff to print out!

I had letters waiting for the children when we were there the past 2 summers. I had given famliy members the address of the resort and asked them to send the kids a note Wow,,,they were excited..a few didn't get there until we were there a few days,but that made the time a little more magical. I also asked for "fairygodmailers" to send them a note from Disney before our trip...they would send a card from their favorite charactor saying that they were waiting for them...that added to the excitement as well

Thanks for the "shout out" disneyaway! I'm glad you like my things.

I have a big collection of things that you can do for a "Grand Welcome" from either Mickey & the Gang, Tinkerbell or the Princesses. Look in my 4shared file in the link in my signature then look in the "Mickey's Grand Welcome" file. I also have some candy wrappers in the "candy wrapper" file.

Here is a thread with some pictures that show how two mom's made their Grand Welcomes:

Yup. This is the thread that is getting me into trouble (or inspired-its all about perspective) and causing DH just to shake his head at me

Jtanddolly-- your stuff is really great. I love the princess grand welcome stuff, especially
