What to put on the sign
“Hop to it. HOCO?”
One line, big letters. If it needs a second read, cut it down.
The plan
Before they wake up, chalk a full hopscotch grid down their driveway with one word in each square, ending in giant block letters that spell the ask. You stand on the last square holding flowers, so the first thing they see out the window is the whole path leading to you. It hijacks the exact route they walk to their car, so there is no missing it.
