As you know, the most demanding buyers, consumers and customers are children. That is why it is especially difficult for kids to pick up a gift that will delight them. Moreover, it is important to choose a present that will be used by the child, and will not become another unnecessary toy. The whole thing is complicated by the fact that young children do not know how to hide their feelings, so you can immediately notice whether the child liked the gift or not.

It is especially difficult to pick up a gift for a holiday whose atmosphere is filled with magic and a fairy tale. First of all, it concerns the New Year.

If you don’t know what to give the child for the New Year (be it your own child, a distant relative or a child of friends), the material in this article can help you. We offer you a list of universal gifts, as well as a number of unusual gifts - everyone will be able to choose one or another option as they wish.

Overview of Universal Kits

It should be remembered that no matter what gift you choose, it must correspond to the age of the baby.

That is why you should not buy a book for a child 1 year old, and a toy for a teenager who has already graduated from high school.

In addition, it is important to keep abreast of the baby's hobbies. Thus, you will present him with a thing that you will definitely like and enjoy. Another important point - Do not give the child what he already has. If you decide to present a child with any significant and expensive thing, then it will not be superfluous to consult with his parents - perhaps they plan to purchase this item on their own.

One way or another, but sometimes it is impossible to foresee all the subtleties and nuances. That is why we offer you an overview of the best universal children's gifts (here you will find things that are suitable for girls and boys).

Toys

The first point is pretty obvious, because all children love to play. Toys - this is a fairly universal category, therefore, you can choose one or another item not only depending on gender or age, but also depending on the individual preferences of the baby.

So, a doll will be a great gift for a little girl, and a machine for a boy. But also today on the market you can buy various toys made in the form of well-known cartoon or fairy-tale characters. All you have to do is find out which of the many existing heroes is the favorite of this child - and give such a toy for the New Year.

Sweets & Fruits

Another win-win option. However, in this case, for safety reasons, do not forget to consult with the parents or relatives of the baby - there is a possibility that it is contraindicated to eat certain foods for some medical reasons (for example, there is an allergy or the child suffers from individual intolerance).

Of course, such foods must be immediately ruled out. In general, such an idea is one of the most traditional, such a present will not leave indifferent any kid.

Books

Teaching, as they say, is light. And especially this expression is relevant for children. Indeed, at a young age, all processes in the brain that are responsible for the perception and assimilation of the surrounding reality, as well as new knowledge, pass with greater ease.

In connection with the foregoing, A colorful and vibrant book of fairy tales will be a great gift for any child.

If he still doesn’t know how to read on his own, he will happily listen to his mother’s reading and consider unusual pictures, and if the baby has already learned the basics of reading, a new book will be an additional reason to consolidate and improve the skill.

clothing

This category is also a very popular option for gifts for babies. On the eve of the New Year it will be especially important to give your child pajamas, slippers or socks.

But a cute hat, mittens or a warm scarf are also suitable. In addition, sweaters, as well as outerwear, will be useful.

Children grow up quite quickly, and therefore constantly need to update their wardrobe. Concerning a new thing will never be superfluous (This is especially true for large families in which clothes are transferred almost “by inheritance”). However, before purchasing a wardrobe item, specify the size of the child - if you buy a thing a size larger, then it can be worn next season, but too small a thing will be useless.

Be especially careful when choosing shoes for children. If there was a desire to present such a present, it is best to give up surprises and go choose and try on a new pair of shoes with the child and his parents.

Blankets, blankets and pillows

Any options for the decoration of the bed will be especially relevant during the New Year's Eve, when cold and frost are raging on the street. Make sure that the blankets and rugs are painted with fun and colorful patterns, and the pillow can be made in the shape of your favorite baby animal. In this case, he will use such presentations with great pleasure and will remember you for a long time with a warm smile.

Sport equipment

If the baby shows love and inclination to play sports or already attends some sports club - not only a pleasant, but also a useful gift will be sports equipment or accessory. These include soccer and basketballs, boxing gloves or a hockey stick. And also a new set of sports uniforms is suitable.

If you have the opportunity to spend a fairly large amount on a gift, then you can buy a Swedish staircase or a complete sports corner for the baby’s room.

Backpacks and bags

Presenting such accessories as a gift will be especially true for children who are already attending school. Each little girl will be delighted with a purse with a princess, and a boy with a backpack with a superhero.

Office

In addition to the previous paragraph, you can give a set of a new office. However, to make school supplies a pleasant and not a boring gift, make sure that you choose enough attention to the appearance of objects when choosing.

So, do not buy standard pencils and pens, as well as notebooks with plain covers. Try to choose something original and fun: pens in the shape of fondant or guns, notebooks with the image of fairy-tale characters, and so on.

Unusual household items

Despite the fact that children love everything bright and colorful, they also need standard, so-called adult gifts. Such things include, for example, various hygiene kits (shampoo, soap, shower gel, and so on). In this regard, manufacturers of such products offer to combine business with pleasure.

This is especially useful for school-age children who are prone to writing poetry or want to write books.

Album and paints

The artistic abilities and aspirations of each child must be expressed. The easiest way is to draw. If your kid is just starting to get acquainted with this type of art, then you can buy an ordinary sketchbook and a standard set of watercolor paints.

However, in the event that such a hobby has reached a new, higher level, then it is worth taking a closer look at more professional objects: canvases, oil paints, and so on. If you are confused in the variety of art shop goods, then Feel free to consult your seller.

Needlework items

Musical instruments

Pupils of music schools will appreciate a new musical instrument or a stylish accessory to it.Perhaps there is a piano in your apartment that nobody uses, and your niece wants to become the second Mozart.

Sweet tooth

Obviously, a set of sweets or chocolates will be the ideal gift for any sweet tooth. Such a New Year's sweet present will delight both a girl and a boy.

However, stipulate in advance that he will have to take care of him independently, and that acquiring an animal is a big responsibility, because a puppy or kitten is not a toy that can be put aside or completely thrown away. Teach your child the principle that we are responsible for those we tamed.

If your child is a younger age, but still dreams of a pet, then give him an animal that will be more unpretentious in care, such as a fish, a turtle or a parrot. In the latter case, you can learn different words with the baby along with the baby.

Such toys will interest not only kids, but even their parents.

Gifts for little helpers

  • Another way is to place the gift in an unexpected place (for example, in a backpack or under a pillow). The child will be surprised at the unexpected find and will attribute to her a fabulous origin.
  • One of the most classic ways is to give a gift from hand to hand. Thus, the baby will know who presented him with this or that toy, and will be grateful for that to a particular person.
  • If you invite an animator to you in the role of Santa Claus, then you can ask him to present a gift to your baby. In this case, he will be sure that a fairy tale exists. Just do not forget to first write a letter to Santa Claus with wishes, as well as to learn a poem.
