Here are 5 Ultimate Gift Collections that are sure to delight and inspire your little ones- day after day.  

Exploring Household Materials with The Everyday Play Deck

Day/Night #1: Your child can unwrap The Everyday Play Deck and begin to explore repurposed and household materials.

Following Days/Nights: Wrap household items that are featured in the Everyday Play Deck (colander, cardboard tube, etc.) with a repurposed or reusable material (newspaper, play silks, etc.). Prepare one wrapped item for each day or night that you’re celebrating. For example, 7 wrapped household items for the remaining 7 nights of Hanukkah. Place these items in a large box or basket and each day/night, your child can unwrap one item! Together, you can explore different ways to play with this item, using The Everyday Play Deck as inspiration. Here’s to playfully exploring everyday materials, all winter long!

Transforming the Maileg House of Miniature Ultimate Dollhouse

Day/Night #1: Surprise your child with the Maileg House of Miniature Ultimate Dollhouse.

Following Days/Nights: Your child can unwrap one new animal friend or dollhouse accessory each day or night. Invite grandparents, aunts and uncles to get in on the fun by surprising your child with additional friends and accessories to help transform this sweet house into a one-of-a-kind home!

Building the Ultimate Baby Doll Collection- Day by Day

Day/Night #1: Your little one can unwrap a Dinkum Doll, Dozy Dinkum, or a soft doll of your choice!

Following Days/Nights: Surprise your child with a different accessory for his or her doll each day: clothing, a mini blanket, bedding, or doll furniture. The final gift can serve as the grand finale. Think rattan pram, bed, or changing table!

Creating an Animal Collection- Piece by Piece

Day/Night #1: Surprise your child with one wooden animal by Poppy Baby Co. + a large basket or display shelf where he or she will eventually store the entire collection.

Following Days/Nights: Each day, your child can unwrap another animal. Together, you can create habitats for this growing collection of animals. Make a list of the natural elements each animal needs to feel healthy and happy, such as tall trees to climb, rocks for sunbathing, or mountains to climb. Book illustrations are often helpful and inspiring during the brainstorming process. This animal collection is a meaningful way to jumpstart your very own nature study!
