Do we often think when choosing a gift for the baby? Do we take his desires into account? Indeed, even an ordinary balloon can lead a child to a much greater delight than an expensive exclusive encyclopedia. And then we are perplexed, they say, what is he? Dear ones give him such presents, but he turns his nose. So that this does not happen, let's look at all the aspects in order.
Where to start choosing a gift for a child?
For a very long time there are certain rules that must be followed when choosing a gift for a baby:
- The first and most important is age. Naturally, preschool children will be more delighted with their favorite toy than albeit an expensive, but such a boring encyclopedia. Although you should not forget that each child has his own tastes and preferences. Some children at 5 years old will be incredibly happy from the encyclopedia. You just need to know exactly the preferences of the child.
- The second, and equally important, is the gender of the child. In fact, it is as important as age. It would be incorrect to give the girl a car, and the boy dolls. Although, again, it all depends on the child himself. Do not forget that there are exceptions to all rules.
- From a certain age, children have their own interests. Someone likes creativity, someone likes sports, and someone is crazy about science.
- When choosing a gift, try to find out exactly what your child is dreaming of, it will be very cool to realize his dream on the eve of his birthday.
So, now let's move on to the topic and talk about specific ideas.
Educational gifts
Such gifts are good for very small crumbs. For 1-3 years, toys that develop motor skills and tactility will be a good gift. It can be cubes, large designers and the like toys.
From 3 to 6 years begins the time of cognition of the world. At this age, the boys will be crazy about railways, radio-controlled cars, etc. But for the girls, give them toy houses, sets for the kitchen, hairdresser, and lalek with a stroller.
Pets
From about 7 years old, children can be entrusted with pet care. A dog or a cat (as well as any other animal) will not only be a terrific birthday present for a child, but will also accustom your baby to responsibility, distract him from the TV, teach love and care, which is important. The main thing is not to forget to set your own example.
Modern gadgets
The older the child, the more so-called “status” gadgets begin to take in his life. In fact, it’s very difficult for a child to explain that with a cool phone you can win the friendship of classmates only for a while, until someone else has a cooler phone. Nevertheless, many children literally beg their parents for some kind of super modern smartphone or tablet. To give or not to give such a gift to a child is up to you.
Gift Impression
Here it all depends on the financial capabilities of the parents. Impressions can actually compete even with a mega cool smartphone. If you have the opportunity, take the child to Disneyland. Too cool? Then you will be helped by an amusement park, which probably is in your or in a neighboring city. It can also be a zoo, a water park or some kind of children's entertainment center. In any case, this gift, your child will surely remember for a long time.
