Suggestions please!

I am planning a trip to Disney in October 2019. I am looking for some suggestions on fun ways I can let my parents know that they are going. I want to do some fun gift ideas for Christmas this year which is when they will find out. We are paying for the trip for them to come along with my family (Wife, Son 6, and daughter 4) My parents are Disney freaks like myself so its going to blow their mind. Any suggestions appreciated. We will be staying at Caribbean beach resort.

I would love to do this for my parents one day. I have this plan to add pictures from our previous trips into an album, and write them a note on the first blank page telling them they can add even more magical memories with details of the upcoming trip.

While it's typically for my kids, I've surprised them for most of their trips. One of their trips was during the holidays, so I wrapped a bunch of goodies for the trip in Christmas wrapping paper...which would go well for Christmas morning. Being Disney fans, it made sense to get fun Disney-ish stuff, so while they were curious where this was all going, it didn't totally tip them off either. The big gift was a massive box (wrapped with holiday paper and a big bow) that was holding two large helium inflated mouse ear balloons. When they opened that box, the balloons popped up and we had a big "Surprise! You're going to Walt Disney World" moment. I also put some custom trip shirts in the box for them. Not sure about all of the little stuff, but you could totally pull off the big box with the balloons for your parents to fully reveal the surprise.

My husband and I plan to take our children and grandchildren next year. I am having family vacation shirts made that say "We're going to Disney World!" for us to wear on our flight out. I found some balloons on Amazon which are a full Mickey or Minnie not just the head so they have a body. I plan to use tape to fit the t-shirts to the balloons with the "We're going to Disney World!" portion clearly visible and wrap them in boxes so when opened the balloon pops out. I plan to set them aside to be opened simultaneously at the end of our Christmas gift giving.
