15 Return Gift Ideas for Kids below 5 Years

It’s that time of the year when my daughter’s birthday is round the corner. As always, a whole lot of planning goes into it – be it the theme of the party, her birthday dress, the cake, drawing up the guests list, the return gifts – the list is endless.

Did I say return gifts?!? Phew, picking the right return gift for my daughter’s friends is the toughest and probably the most brain racking part in the whole planning process. You don’t want to buy gifts that are common and which, kids mostly have, and, at the same time, they shouldn’t burn a hole in your pocket. It has to be something that the kids enjoy using – that they love taking with themselves back home, with a broad grin on their face!
