    Dh & I are planning a trip in May 2010 but want to make it part of our DD(8) Christmas present. Any ideas on how to do it in a unique or special way? Don't want to do a gift card,

    Hi Sharon,

    What a great Christmas present!  It will give your daughter something to look forward to long after the decorations are down and the rest of her gifts get forgotten.

    As far as how to present this gift, I have a couple of thoughts.  I know that my 8 year old really likes looking through Disney guide books - even when we're not planning a vacation.  How about picking up one of those at your local book store.  Also, an autograph book tucked into her stocking might be a nice touch.  You can order them online at www.disneystore.com.

    Something else that might be fun would be to pick up a scrapbook or photo album - they even have Disney themed ones and all kinds of Disney stickers at craft stores.  Anyway, on the first page of the album, insert a note that says something like, "This space is for a picture of me when I found out my parents were taking me to Walt Disney World!"  Be ready with a camera and snap her reaction.

    Hope this helps.  Have a Merry Christmas and a magical vacation!

After spending 25 years in RI, my husband and I relocated to GA with our youngest, who is now in high school. I took my first trip to Walt Disney World when I was 11 and I have traveled many times since then with all different party sizes. From creating our first itinerary as a honeymooner to later creating magical experiences for our multigenerational family gatherings, every aspect of planning a vacation has been pure joy to me.  Learn More About Diane
