If you have school-age kids, then you are probably getting birthday party invitations on a regular basis. I actually love getting to go to birthday parties as it gives me an opportunity to spend some time with the parents of Darah’s friends, and also to put faces to names of children she talks about at home. But if I don’t keep my gift closet well-stocked, I also find myself blowing our budget on last minute birthday gifts, which really add up!
Do you have a gift closet with a variety of options that were affordable to purchase ready to go? One place I would recommend shopping for really cute and different gifts to have on hand is Knock Knock. This is a stationery and gift company and they are overflowing with cute and cheeky items for kids and adults.
Right now, I have two items in my gift closet that I can’t wait to give to a child at an upcoming party. We’ll be giving the Big Word Flashcards and My Food Passport to a classmate of Darah’s, and I think they are both going to be well-loved by the child. Big Word Flashcards contains 25 really big words along with illustrations and an explanation of meaning. I recall as a young child learning a few big words (supercalifragilisticexpialidocious, anyone?) and thinking they were SO COOL. This set gives them 25 words to learn and to use to amaze their friends (and some grownups, too, as I will fully admit to not knowing quite a few of the words in the set, myself!). Big Words Flashcards are just $12.00, which makes budget-friendly!
The My Food Passport is the PERFECT gift for a picky eater. It has 20 different foods for a child to fully explore, and room to write down their thoughts about the experience. We are fortunate enough to have an adventurous eater, ourselves, but I can see this activity book being an effective tool to help a child who is not as willing to try new things to give them a whirl. I think it is brilliant! My Food Passport is a very reasonable $10.00.
Knock Knock has wonderful items for kids starting at just $6.50! Definitely check them out and get loaded up with stocking stuffers and last minute gifts for kids and adults, alike!
Win it!: I’m giving away 3 items from Knock Knock that are perfect for the academic year! One winner will receive the Academic Planner, the Aha Sticky Pad and the Bookmark Pad!
