We go in search of the perfect gifts each holiday season. Maybe expensive gifts are not the ones that have the most significance. Maybe something simple or handmade will make a greater impact upon the recipient. Quite often a child will have more fun with the box and packaging peanuts his gift came in than he will have with the electronic toy that's inside.
Here are some gift suggestions for young children:
* Buy a book and record yourself reading it. Wrap up the book with the recording for a special, one of a kind gift.
* Create a coupon for a special time for just you and the child. Choose an activity they would enjoy doing and include an object that symbolizes the time. Could be a puzzle, the ingredients to make cookies, a new board game.
* Make home play-dough (recipe) and include cookie cutters, plastic knives, craft sticks and a six inch length of a 1 inch diameter dowel for a rolling pin. Put the kit inside a cake pan with a lid.
Simple gifts can create the fondest of memories.
