How do I make a B'day special?

[ddoconnell]

Hey...I have posted a couple of trip planner threads...but I do have a question. This is the first trip for my nephew and he will be turning 11 while we are at WDW. Does anyone know of something special (other than just being at WDW ) that we can do for his birthday? I want to make it memorable. I know that the trip will be great but, has anyone done anything else to make it really stand out?

Thanks for your help!

If you're staying onsite, consider having a small gift or goody basket delivered to the room (this isnt free) Also, mention to your resort, and when making All ADR (and at checkin at those) that its a special occaision, and hope for the best

I am actually going to call 'Ohana a month before my ADR, and ask them if there is anything special that can be done on our special occaision. A window seat, (even though not during Wishes) or a decorated table would mean the world to our very special guest

When you check in your hotel, assuming you are staying at disney, ask for a Happy Birthday button and they will write his name on it. Everywhere he goes on Disney all cast members will tell him happy birthday. Some of the restaurants even presented us with a small cake or a cupcake with a candle in it and we didn't even ask for it. Plus they put mickey confetti on our table.
