Get your child into the holiday spirit with this Christmas Gift Basket for Kids! This basket is guaranteed to bring joy to your little one! I put this Christmas Gift Basket together for my three-year-old son with a bunch of festive treats. He was so delighted and really enjoyed every item.
All you need to make a Christmas Gift Basket are a few holiday items that are age appropriate for your child and a basket to put them in. The basket contents were found at my local Santa’s workshop (Target) and the red plastic container at the Dollar Tree. I’ve listed some links below if you prefer shopping with Amazon Prime.

I have to admit, putting this together had me feeling all sorts of nostalgic. To see my son love the same characters I loved as a kid is pretty awesome! I probably enjoyed a lot of these gifts as much as he did, if not more. Especially watching the old animated classics with him and seeing his face light up as I imagine mine did when I was his age!
Some people like to do this type of gift on Christmas Eve but I wanted to be able to use the items all season long so I gave the Christmas Gift Basket to my son the day after Thanksgiving. Since I love the Holidays so much I like to build up the hype as soon as possible! I see this being a yearly tradition in our house. Every year we’ll get a new Christmas movie to add to our collection, new pj’s for my son, and books to enjoy together as a family. If you do elf on the shelf at your house, you could do this basket as a treat from the elf.
You could also do this basket for an adult by including movies such as A Bad Moms Christmas or Daddy’s Home 2. Adding a bottle of alcohol or wine would also be a nice treat for Mom or Dad. Just saying!
