Main Street Magic - A Walt Disney World Podcast 792: We’re Going to Disney: Best Surprise Reveal Ideas for a Disney Vacation
We’re diving into all the best ways to surprise your loved ones with the magical news—whether it’s a spontaneous, last-minute “we’re leaving right now!” kind of moment, or a carefully crafted, weeks-in-the-making reveal. Maybe you want to wake the kids up early, bags secretly packed, and tell them they’re heading to the airport instead of school. Or maybe you prefer a slow build—dropping hints, or creating a puzzle.
In this episode, we’ll walk through a ton of fun and creative reveal ideas to fit every kind of family and every kind of trip—whether it’s Walt Disney World, Disneyland, or a Disney Cruise. Think scavenger hunts through the house with Disney-themed clues, custom puzzles that spell out the surprise, surprise boxes filled with ears and park maps, or even a special dinner with a magical dessert reveal. We’ve got ideas for high-energy moments, emotional reveals, and even low-key ways to share the news if your little ones need time to process big surprises.
Then we’ll shift into countdown mode and share all the best ways to keep the excitement going once they know. From Disney-themed movie nights and DIY crafts to custom countdown calendars, sticker charts, and park-inspired meals, we’ll help you turn every day leading up to your trip into its own little celebration.
