Nowadays children are often pragmatic: do your children still believe in tooth fairies, Easter rabbits, Santa Claus and St. Nicholas? I am sure, most of them prefer parents' gifts (prepared after their wishes) instead of magic letters and gifts of fairy tale characters.
But even if your child does not believe in miracles, you can create a magical festive atmosphere by preparing a surprise. How to make a gift to your child joyful and what to give to children, visiting relatives and friends? Here are gift ideas for boys and girls, from babies to teenagers, that will not only please the kids but may also be useful to parents.
Of course, it's easy to pick up a gift for a child whom you know well. However, it often happens that you are invited to the family, where there will be small children who you may see, perhaps for the first time in your life. The main clue, in this case, is the age and gender of the child, this is what will help you navigate when choosing a present. If the toys seem too banal for you, and you don’t want to give just one more car for a boy, and another little pony for a girl let's figure out how to make it original.
Babies up to 1 year old
Gifts for a child at this age are more intended for parents than for the baby, but still, what to give?
Game mats
What parents want is the safety and development of the baby. Multicolored rugs with images of animals made of natural materials can be decorated with hanging rattles for the smallest or can be folded like a puzzle for children learning to crawl. In addition, soft and warm rugs protect the child.
A game mat not only entertains the child but also protects from the cold or slippery floor.
Educational toys
Multi-colored toys, simple mechanisms, buttons that make different sounds, and holes where you need to put a ball or a cube - all this can be found in one large game center. Such toys develop visual, sensory, auditory skills as well as the speech of the child.
Baths and bathing accessories
Many babies love to swim, this process fascinates and soothes them. Special baths, bathing accessories (for example, rubber rings) or toys, like a classic rubber duck, will help make the process comfortable for mom and baby, as well as calm those babies who don’t like water. Also, consider a children's bath set with cosmetic accessories (special baby soap, shampoo, oils) and a large, soft towel for wrapping the child after bathing that can also be a wonderful gift.
For boys or girls 2-4 years old
At this age, children explore the world around them as much as possible, so they are very mobile, and sometimes hyperactive. In addition to traditional dolls and cars, you can come up with a lot of gifts that can occupy a child for a long time and satisfy his or her desire to move.
Baby dolls for girls, superheroes for boys
No matter how advanced modern children are, baby dolls in beautiful dresses and superheroes on motorbikes are still in trend. Such a gift can be taken to kindergarten to share joy with friends. Present a doll or a baby doll with lots of accessories as a gift to the girl and you will see how busy your child will immediately become. Boys will love a collection of figures of all fantastic movie heroes.
