Fun ways to tell siblings 5 and 6

My boyfriend and I will be ready to tell his children about the new baby in about a month. They are five and six and will be so excited. I'm trying to come up with creative ways to tell them .... Somehow having a puzzle made with some words and having them put it together ... Making a scavenger hunt collecting all the words around grandma's farm....

Any cute ideas? ( not ready to tell gender as we wanna have them guess for a bit)

  • A lot of people give them little gifts and put "-from little brother/ sister, can't wait to meet you!" The kids are excited about the gift as well as the little one they'll get to play with!

  • I love the scavenger/treasure hunt idea!
  • I like the puzzle idea because then you can keep it as a reminder.

    @magburt, that's pretty funny! I hope you eventually got to visit Disney.

    4 years later we got my first and only trip to the magical world of Disney!
  • We had my boyfriends daughter open up the ultrasound and note like a present :)
  • I'm going to wrap an ultrasound pic in a bigger box with Christmas paper. I'm going to tell my 4 and 3 year old they are getting an early Christmas present:)
