Fun gift baskets are wonderful to give and super-duper fun to receive. How can you make a birthday even better? By giving a gift that's full of lots of great stuff! I think the more stuff in a basket...the better. |
Brings me back to my childhood. I lived down the street from a candy store (every kid's dream!). One year right around Easter, the store had the most beautiful Easter basket packed with candy and small toys. I wanted it so bad, but I didn't think my parents could afford it. But apparently the Easter bunny could, because it was next to my bed Easter morning! |

The main thing I remember is all of the different types of candy and small toys. Individually no candy or toy was that super spectacular, but together they were great!
That's what I was thinking of when I started to come up with fun basket ideas for you. Sometimes, just gathering nostalgic candy or treats and putting it in a cute container is just the perfect gift.
These companies specialized in great presentations of old fashioned candy. I'd love a gift from here myself!
Or maybe finding a gift basket that is really a gag gift would be just the perfect thing. In this case there is something funny about a tombstone. I guess that's what you call "black humor". These fun gift baskets have a real variety of goodies including popcorn and chocolate! |
Does the birthday boy or birthday girl love movies? I know my youngest son, Eddie, does! This would be a perfect birthday gift for him. A basket of movie snacks and a Netflix gift card. |
Our family loves Netflix. It's such a great deal and there are so many choices! You can find all sorts of hard-to-find movies.
For example - maybe they love older 1980's movies, black and white, or even new releases. They'll have lots of choices right at their finger tips because they can have their movie choices mailed to them. It's also very convenient!
If you're shopping for kids, choose a basket full of lots of things to do. This type of gift is great if you're going on a long car trip. That's what my mom did when I was growing up - she'd get us lots of activity books just for the car. We could hardly wait to go! Any kid would get a kick out of these baskets!
