Free Hidden Mickey for Lunch notes

Ok, we have 60 more days until we depart for WDW. Sooo,
while we were in Home Depot the other day, waiting for our paint to be mixed, I noticed Disney has paints and color samples shaped like Mickey. I grabbed like 2 of each color (there free right) and have been writing little notes or countdowns on them for DS and DH to find in their lunches.
DH called all excited when he found his first one and DS and his friends wonder what the next message will be.

Just wanted to brag!

Thanks

Cool!!!! This is a neat idea. Me and the kids always grab our favorite colors when we are in HD. I have the CODE RED Mickey head on my cork board here at work.

Re: Free Hidden Mickey for Lunch notes

I was just looking at those the other day. They'd also make great gift tags.

Re: Free Hidden Mickey for Lunch notes

I used those Mickey paint swatches to make file folder matching games for my preschoolers.

Laminate them and kids can use them for tracing. You can use them for tic-tac-toe or checkers pieces.

You can use them in scrapbooking if you treat them with acid free spray. They also make great magnets for the fridge.

There are alot of things to do with them.

Re: Free Hidden Mickey for Lunch notes

We always grab lots of those while we are in Home Depot, my DS loves them. We use them for all kinds of things, including a game of concentration. (Now that my son can read we can't play this any longer since to name of the color is on the back of the card.) I have started collecting them to make a count down banner for this summer, I cna't wait!!

Re: Free Hidden Mickey for Lunch notes

What great ideas we all have!!

I love the gift tags idea. Would have never thought of that. I could put them on the souvenirs that I purchase for everyone.

The childrens games are a fantastic idea. My neice loves those memory games. I'll have to pass that one onto my SIL.

Re: Free Hidden Mickey for Lunch notes

hiner, that is such a great idea. I am going to have to snatch that one up.
And Llama -I love it
rlander had the best idea though--everybody paint something.
