How to create an app to wish someone on their birthday? I want to go a little overboard 😭

So, our Computer Science teacher's birthday is coming up, and we really want to do something memorable... The thing is, he's not a huge fan of big physical celebrations or cake-cutting, so we thought it'd be much more meaningful to make something digital instead....CS teacher after all.
I've been thinking about creating something like a small desktop app (or maybe one of those fun pop-up programs) that launches on his computer and wishes him a happy birthday. But I don't want it to be just a basic "Happy Birthday" window...😅 I'm comfortable with programming, but I've never built something like this before, so I'm looking for ideas....The goal is to make him smile while also showcasing some solid programming skills.
Has anyone built something similar before? Any cool ideas that would make a CS teacher think, "Okay... that's actually awesome."?....
