We have surprised our kids many times for our WDW trips! But for our upcoming first time to DL trip we surprised the kids on Easter! Our kids are 14 girl and boy 16. We had been talking about taking a WDW trip since it has been a couple
years since we have gone.
The kids usually leave out their empty baskets the night before for the "bunny". On Easter morning their baskets were empty with just a envelope inside them. Inside the envelope that had a letter that said "that this year they had to find their baskets by finding a special egg with a clue to find their baskets". They had to find their own specific egg but if they found the others they couldn't touch it or tell the other where it was. Inside their egg they had a clue to find the next clue.
When they figured out where to go, they each found a crossword puzzle. They had their own specific puzzle with things they would know answers too. For instance my daughters was theater themed and music themed for my son. After doing the puzzle they had letters that were circled and had to put all their letters together to spell out in moms trunk.
Once they went inside my trunk they found two baskets with a Mickey and Minnie balloon tied to each and a couple wrapped gifts. My daughter immediately screams we're going to DISNEY WORLD!! DH and I just smiled. The next thing they had to do was open their gifts they we had numbered. The first gift they got was a package of Dixie bathroom cups with a Disney theme, next shorts and next socks and the last gift was a Disneyland shirt. So at that point my daughter screams again we are going to DISNEYLAND!! My son got annoyed that she was screaming and didn't want neighbors to hear us. But right after he gave a HUGE smile!
Another surprise we had was that their cousin was coming also. So at Easter dinner later on my nephew wore Disneyland tshirt. It was a very obvious one though so afterwards he put on a different one that clearly said Disneyland on it. My daughter then figured it out.
