Hey there, Frank!
Thanks for coming to planDisney with your question. I think it's so very exciting that you're planning to surprise your godchildren and tell them about their trip to Walt Disney World Resort. I can just imagine all the excitement when you share that pixie-dusted news!
For me, nothing says "We’re going to Walt Disney World!" better than the
Tomorrow is Just a Dream Away video that you might have seen playing on television. It's such a fun video to watch (again and again and again) and I think it really captures the spirit of excitement and anticipation that we all feel the moment when we know we're heading to The Most Magical Place on Earth!
You might find some sources of inspiration at the
Disney Parks YouTube channel. You'll find a vault of videos and playlists to showcase just about every aspect of the Disney vacation experience -- the theme parks, attractions, Disney Resorts Collection hotel accommodations, delicious dining experiences, behind-the-scenes moments, and so much more. One of my favorite videos is the
Magic is Here video highlighting the many magical moments that await you at Walt Disney World Resort. Another favorite is the
Walt Disney World 50th Anniversary Celebration video that sets the stage for
“The World’s Most Magical Celebration” that kicks off on October 1. It's sure to be one awesome anniversary party, and -- best of all -- it looks like you'll be there to join the celebration.
One of the most fun ways to embrace the eager anticipation of an upcoming Walt Disney World Resort vacation is with a countdown calendar. My fellow planDisney Panelists offer up some great ideas for how to mark off the days in the planDisney Panel Extra
planDisney Panelists Offer Ideas for Disney Countdown Fun.
Frank, I hope that a few of these ideas are helpful to you as you look for ways to share the special news that there's a great, big, beautiful tomorrow just a dream away for your godchildren.
One additional tip I always like to share is to be sure and make your theme park reservations through the
Disney Park Pass system. The Disney Park Pass system is quick and easy to use and in just a few steps you'll have your theme park reservations available to view in the My Plans area of
My Disney Experience. It's a good idea to check for availability of theme park reservations first by taking a look at the
Theme Park Reservation Availability calendar.
Here's wishing you all a wonderful and fun vacation at Walt Disney World Resort! If you want to pick up more recommendations and trip tips, ask us here at planDisney. We love the opportunity to share our advice and ideas from our own Disney destination vacations.
Enjoy all the Disney magic!
