What Goes into a Child’s Gift Basket?
Cheryl asks:
“In my business I have never had the opportunity to create a easter basket of children ages 3-5 what you put in these type of basket?”
Although Easter has passed, the types of items that make children (and parents) happy are also the type that are appreciated in summer baskets.
The main focus for either theme is to select gifts that are oversized so they cannot be swallowed and to select foods or snacks that are nutritious rather than sugar filled.
Juices, drink cups, puzzles made with large pieces, bouncing balls (choose ones that cannot be picked apart like the rubber type), oversized building blocks, toy camera, and plush animals come to mind first.
You’ll find other food and gift items that are child friendly in catalogs and sample gift baskets found in trade magazines.
An instructional note enclosed with the gift for the parent that provides tips on discarding the outside wrapping and other safety information will be appreciated by the customer and recipient.
