Creative countdown ideas...

[chipndale76]

Does anyone have any creative ways of counting down till your trip? Our youngest will be three a week after our trip and I think he thinks we're going to the Disney Store lol. So I want to get him excited about this trip. Thanks!!!

Do a countdown chain! My husband did one for our son for 100 days. Each day had a cool Disney fact. He loved it. I have attached a link here for you. There are others too if you google it.

We did a countdown calendar - numbers on Mickey heads, and every day when we took one off, my son would get to choose a Disney sticker to put up in its place. The last one was beside a picture of us in front of the Castle. Next year I'm going to get a little more involved w/ it, and have a picture of an attraction or character under each number.

When my son was little we had magnetic numbers on the fridge. We started at 99 days (and needed two sets of numbers) It was his job everyday to change them. It helped to build excitement for the trip and also helped him to learn his numbers.
