How to choose a gift for your son for the New Year?

For the New Year, it is customary to give everyone. But the most reverently selected gifts are for relatives and friends. Every year, this rather troublesome task arises for parents. And it’s all the more pleasant to see the joy of the gift, if the son liked it.

Many parents make a mistake when they do not attach importance to gifts for very young children and give formal presents in adulthood. This approach is fundamentally wrong:

• similar family traditions teach to take care of other people;
• care is always pleasant - along with the gift an awareness of the need and significance is given, and this is one of the foundations of psychological comfort.

All New Year’s attributes should be present in the child’s life from the first months of his life. This firmly takes a place in his subconscious. Even if the son is too small to formulate his desires - a small gift must be. As it grows, parents will have to assume the function of Santa Claus. Moreover, in addition to all other gifts, mom and dad should give a son. Simple games with rattles, balls, cubes are suitable for the baby. A little later, he will need developing toys with many buttons and switches. At an early age, the most attractive objects with lighting effects and musical accompaniment.

Consider what can be suitable for a preschooler from the age of three as a gift.

• A set of toy heroes from your favorite cartoon. So the child will master the role-playing games. With their help, parents can simulate various situations, teach the rules of behavior.
• Different types of equipment. All boys pay attention to transport.Depending on your interests, you can choose an ambulance, an airplane, a tank, a train, a truck crane as a gift. To diversify the game, for transport you will need various accessories - roads, gas stations, parking lots, bus stations.

As they grow older, designers become more complex. The range of such products is quite wide - you can find designers from blocks, Velcro, suction cups and others.
• Kits for outdoor games. It can be a bowling, hoops or a basketball hoop. At the same age, you can think about acquiring a sports corner, especially if there are several children, or friends come to visit their son.

And if at first he needs a lot of plasticine or paints, then at an older age you can buy a kit for modeling or robotics. Young researchers will be interested in sets for scientific experiments. Better to start with a simple one. If such a hobby finds a response, you can think about additional classes with a teacher.
