How are some ways you have surprised your kids with a Disney trip.

We are surprising the kids Christmas morning. I'm wrapping up a huge box full of red and black balloons with a mickey balloon slightly weighed down that has a sign taped to it telling the kids we are going. Who doesn't want to open a huge box and then have balloons fly out?! I think it will be a great surprise.

One year (our first trip) we just drove to Anaheim and told them after we got to the hotel. LOL They had NO idea.

another year we did a scavenger hunt, various clues led to other clues which led to the "treasure", the treasure was our gift package.

Thanks for the ideas!!!! Love the balloons!!! We decided to have t-shirts made that say "Granny and Papa are taking us to Disneyland ". They will be wrapped for Xmas and they will open them once we are all together over Xmas.
