Calling all fellow Dis'ers! Please help me my suprise
trip for my kids!
Here's the deal my husband and I are giving my son a gift to Disney for his confirmation/8th grade graduation and my daughters birthday. I plan on giving them the SUPRISE
next month when my son gets confirmed.
Here is what I was thinking. I went to the Disney site and ordered my free park maps. Well I received them the other day and they look so much like pirate maps
that I thought I would make a treasure chest and put the maps, vacation planning DVD, disney gift cards, disney planning book along with LGMH paint chips and maybe throw in some gold coins. Any and all other suggestions on what I should add would be welcomed!
Here is where I need your help. I want to give them clues
before they open the chest and see their surprise. I was thinking of having the clues on cards that they would each take turns reading out loud. I don't want to make it obvious to them where they are going until they open up the chest.
Just give them hints and see if they can figure it out on there own. This is what I have so far, I think I will put this on like an official document and have them each read a verse and read together the last one. Ok ready?
With these special clues
That you now hold
Enchantment and fun
Will surely unfold
They tell of a journey
That's perfect for you
With wonder and magic
Your favorites, too!
So open them now
And be sure to grin
It's time to let your
Journey begin!
Ok now I want to elude to the parks but have no idea what to do.
This is where you all come in! Can you help me think of the clues? I will need one for MK, AK, EP,DS and some thing about the resort, we are staying at POP. Maybe something about Downtown Disney or just the overall destination of Disney.
This is what I have for the last clue before the chest is open. I will have them read it together.
Inside this chest your treasure does hold
It tells of a place for young and for old
Open the lid, oh what will you see
( then have them open )
and inside a large certificate on top or something it will say
A PLACE WE CAN WISH FOR A MILLION DREAMS!!
So what do you all think? Sounds like fun? So come one and all and help me plan this very special trip PLEASE!!!
