We have been asked on many occasions by customers if we offer packages specifically for children, for birthdays and celebrations but also for kids having a difficult time, whether with big changes or with their health. Our kids have also mentioned that they feel a bit put out that we spend our days organising gifts for people but they don’t get to be recipients!
We’ve created a package that allows you to put something together completely bespoke and personal for the child you are sending it to, with products suitable for ages 0-12 and range from eating and drinking to things to do, including baking, colouring and reading. We’ve made gift wrap optional as having tried out the packages on our own kids, some opened with care and others frankly tore it apart in a frenzy and the lovingly tied bow was wasted.

Lindsay McKechnie –
Thank you for setting up a business that allows me to put a smile on my nieces face. Popped bubbles at school and missing a sleepover with her cousin had left her super sad but this bought a smile to her face and I am so grateful. Xx
