During our childhood we used to get very excited when we received gifts. We always had high expectations because we usually had a long list of our ideal gifts, especially when it came to clothing. We were so disappointed when we opened our gifts and suddenly discovered that the Tom & Jerry t-shirt we wanted was actually light blue.

But this time, don’t let your gifts be a disappointment: give clothes that are guaranteed to put a smile on your children’s faces.

First of all, try to find out what they want because that is the best way to give clothes that children will wear and love you for it. As an adult, you probably don’t know what your kids think is cool. So it’s best to ask them to give you a wish list of “cool” items they’d love to have. And if you want to give him a surprise you can always ask his best friend.

If you want to give clothes to your nephew or niece, who are a little older, it is best not to ask the parents but their friends to give you ideas of what they want. But for younger children, it is easier to ask the parents because they know what the child likes.

You can personalize the gift with a small monogram or inscription of the child’s name or initials. A football shirt with the child’s name is an excellent option for children who like sports or in a towel for those who do not practice sports.

You can also choose clothes from movies, cartoons or toys that are in fashion. For example, girls love to dress up as princesses. Look for clothes that have images of a princess from your favorite movie, something that also has fairy dust (sparkles). And little boys are always interested in trucks and cars. So pick an item that has a picture of your favorite machine on it.

Make your gift more memorable by adding a special touch to your gift. If you add a fancy zipper of a cartoon character or put a small toy in one of the pockets. This small gesture will make even a small gift even more special.

Don’t give something you think is practical, like socks. Parents will love it, but the child will not. Pamper them by giving them something they’ve been denied before, like a superhero character t-shirt you know they wanted.

If you want to make your child happier, buy two of the same item. The other can be given to your best friend. They will be excited because they can also give something away. And they love to plan an occasion to wear it on the same day at school or for a party.
