Holiday 101 Checklist #6: Holiday Wrapping

Wrapping presents can be a lot of fun if you have all of the supplies you need.  If you don't, well, then wrapping can certainly be a challenge, to say the least. 

Our handy wrapping checklist will help you to avoid the frustration of not having all of your wrapping supplies. 

·         Wrapping paper (a few different styles so your presents don't look the same)

·         Scissors or a gift-wrap cutter

·         Tape, preferably a wrist dispenser

·         Ribbons

·         Bows

·         Gift tags

·         Gift bags + colored tissue paper

·         A nice metallic pen for gift card signing

·         Lots of boxes (all sizes, start collecting them now)

·         Bubble wrap or packing peanuts

I absolutely love my gadget I got on sale after Christmas for cutting wrapping paper. It is plastic with a grip & a razor inside. Cuts wrapping paper in a snap!

get some newspapers!... or holiday magazines... even computer paper would work, and let your little one have some crayons, markers or paint.. and have at it!

Have you seen the new things you wear on a wrist or hand for small pieces of tape?

Do they work as well as in the commercial?

kids can make wrap out of brown paper bags...

reverse bags, cut along edges, stamp with christmas stampers, and color it in!
