Presents to Avoid
If you are looking for gifts for the New Year 2024 to strangers or unfamiliar children, then it is better to immediately abandon the idea with sweets.Although at first glance candy, chocolate, cake or fruit is the easiest and safest option, it is very easy to make a mistake, because the percentage of babies with allergic reactions to modern sweets and citrus fruits is growing every year. Thus, wanting to make the child happy, you can easily spoil the holiday for the whole family. Moreover, on New Year's Eve, the percentage of chocolate eaten by children increases many times, because each guest tries to bring something tasty to the baby.
The second most unfortunate New Year's gift for a child is a pet, and it doesn't matter who it will be (kitten, puppy, rabbit or parrot). Firstly, the appearance of a new family member must necessarily be discussed with the whole family, and not decided on New Year's Eve. Secondly, the child must choose his pet on his own. Thirdly, a living being should not be perceived as a toy, therefore it is better not to give it as a gift.
