Any fun ideas to tell older kids?

Question

We decided awhile ago to tell the kids on Mother's Day but now that it's getting closer, I don't know what to do, or if we should just blurt it out.

Every Mother's Day, we go to a rose garden/park and have a picnic and spend the day outside. We always have a blueberry catching contest too. lol

My older kids are 20, 13, 12, 10, and 5. They all want a sibling and I know they'll be so excited, with the exception of my ten year old, he'll have to warm up to the idea, I think.

Answer

Have you ever heard of a King Cake? They're reeeallly good and have a tiny baby doll in it, and whoever's piece has it is supposedly due for very good luck. I think that'd be cute! When someone says they have the baby, you could announce that you have one too.

Answer

I'm also looking for ideas!

Answer

I have 11 year old twins. We put my pregnancy test in a box and gave it to them they opened it up and said it's a pregnancy test. Then it dawned on them they opened it back up got huge smiles on thier face and ran and hugged me.
