For those who want to give a more special gift to your beloved little friends that will make them have fun away from screens, we have prepared a list that will help you find the right one!

 
1. Outdoor toys

Toys that get kids "out" of the house are an ideal choice for an Easter gift. Depending on how much money you want to spend you can buy them a new bike or skateboard, a ball, tennis rackets, a frisbee or anything else you like. The weather now in the spring is getting warmer and your godchildren will be able to happily go outside and play with whatever you got them.


2. Kit activities

DIY activity kits, experiment kits, STEM activities, boxes of blocks, Lego, Playmobil, all will delight our little ones and make them love the godmother and godfather even more. And in this case, make sure that the kit you choose matches the age and particular interests of your godchild in order to make the success of your gift unquestionable.


3. Activity or Experience

If you want you can think "outside the box" and give a gift that is not tangible but will definitely delight your godchildren. A day with you at an activity such as horseback riding, paintball, car kart track, or an adventure park will definitely bring you closer together and leave you both with great memories. Also sailing lessons, robotics, music, pottery, scuba diving and anything else you put your mind to can make a wonderful gift that your godchild can enjoy for many years to come as through it they will gain a new skill.


4. Board games

Board games are fun and promote children's cognitive development, cooperation and emotional intelligence in a creative way. The options are endless. With a little research in a toy store like Jumbo or Moustakas you can find board games suitable for every age and according to each child's interests.


5. Books

Yes, maybe books don't sound so nice as a gift for a child but if you choose the right book your godchild will surely appreciate it. Go to a bookstore and pick something that would catch a child's attention. Remember that the book doesn't have to be educational. Just the process of a child flipping through a book is an important start to fostering literacy.


Whatever gift you choose to offer this Easter to your loved ones at the christening this year, we are sure they will appreciate it. In any case, remember that it is advisable to contact your groomsmen first and confirm that they agree with your choice so as not to take them by surprise. Happy holidays!
