How to Gift a Disney Vacation for Christmas: 12 Magical Surprises
Since Covid, many people are all about the philosophy of making memories rather than collecting more stuff. For some that means more travel for the holidays rather than wrapping up more sweaters and candles (And no looking back!). Christmas in Disney is all the bows and festive you could imagine, and no tape required. If you are going to take the holiday gift travel leap, here are 12 fun and creative ways to make a big Christmas announcement for your crew.
Matching Disney Shirts: Wrap up a set of Disney-themed shirts for each family member. Arrange them in a box with a note saying, “Pack your new shirt for our magical trip!”
Disney Puzzle Reveal: create a custom puzzle with a picture of Mickey Mouse or the Castle that spells out “We’re going to Disney!” and watch their faces as they put the puzzle together.
A Mickey Mouse Balloon Box: Place a helium balloon in a large box. When they open it, the balloon will float out, revealing a note or small gift card with the Disney trip details.
Disney Countdown Calendar: Create a countdown calendar starting 12 days before your departure date of your Disney vacation. Each day can reveal a small Disney-themed gift or clue.
Magic Band Reveal: Order personalized Magic Bands for each family member and wrap them in a box. Include a letter from Mickey Mouse inviting them to visit them at Disney, and to use their magical bracelets that unlocks all the fun and adventure at Disney World!
Disney Movie Night Kit: Package a Disney movie or two with popcorn and a cozy blanket. Include a note saying, “Enjoy this sneak peek of the fun coming our way!”
Scavenger Hunt: Set up a scavenger hunt around your house with each clue leading to a Disney-themed item or location. The final clue could be hidden inside a Mickey Mouse plush or a Disney book.
Treasure Chest Surprise: Gift a small treasure chest filled with Disney-themed goodies, such as, character toys, snacks, and a map. At the bottom of the chest, hide the tickets or a note announcing the trip.
Christmas Ornaments: Choose a special Disney ornament and wrap it up for the family to hang on the tree. Inside the ornament, place a note revealing the surprise trip.
Mickey Ears in a Box: Present a box filled with Mickey Mouse ears for each family member, perhaps engraved with the year of your trip.
Disney Puzzle Box: Find or create a wooden puzzle box that needs to be solved to open. Inside, place the itinerary or a note announcing the Disney vacation.
Breakfast with a Reveal: Serve a breakfast with Mickey-shaped pancakes and place an invitation next to the syrup: “How about we eat these again in Disney?”
Whichever way you choose to reveal the gift, the look of joy and surprise on your family’s faces will be priceless. A Disney vacation is not just a trip; it’s an experience that starts from the moment you decide to embark on this magical journey together.
