gift idea {baskets}



I made this basket for Em when we were doing homeschool preschool but I think a basket full of goodies related to a theme is a great holiday gift too.  One year I did a basket full of Fairy Tale related items:  a little stuffed mouse dressed like Little Red Riding Hood, a couple of Fairy Tale books, magic jumping beans, gingerbread men, etc.  I tried to find a picture of that basket but I couldn't find it.  

You could do a school basket like the one above too where you put tons of supplies in it for playing pretend school:  Chalk board, pens and pencils, lined paper, stickers, tiny books for dolls, etc.

Maybe a dress up basket with different outfits for pretend play.  I'm not sure if stores still have Halloween costumes for sale but that would be a cute idea too.
