A birthday for a child is always a miracle, a magical holiday that he will remember for a long time. Therefore, simply giving a child a gift in his hands is boring and uninteresting. The moment of presenting the gift should be made fun, with elements of play and surprise.

Instructions
Step 1
Making the search for a gift a game is a win-win idea. For young children, you can draw small colorful cards that will indicate the path to the treasure, that is, a gift. Draw a table, sofa, bed, toys, etc. on small pieces of cardboard. Place them in their places while the baby is still asleep. When he wakes up, he will see a room strewn with balloons, you congratulate him, and then offer to play in search of the treasure, holding out the first card.
Step 2
Don't make too many cards to keep your baby interested in the process. Wrap the gift in wrapping paper - children really like to tear apart the rustling layers. Instead of cards, you can use a pointer track - cut out small paws from colored paper, spread them along the route to the location of the gift. It will be interesting for a small child to step on bright pieces of paper.
Step 3
For an older child, you can come up with a more complex scenario - do not draw pieces of furniture on the cards, but write down riddles and make puzzles. Put the cards or notes in different places - hide them in a balloon, behind a painting, under a bed, etc. You can draw a real treasure map with clear directions - the number of steps from one point to another, indicating the cardinal points, etc. Prepare pirate hats, blindfolds, and other adventure paraphernalia in advance.
Step 4
Prepare a short talk from all family members. Congratulate your child right in the morning - gather everyone at his bedside and read poetry. Poems can be written as simple as possible, but with a meaning that reflects the essence of your gift. On the way, each of the congratulators will read a couple of lines, and then give the child a gift. Such a start to the birthday will set the mood for the child.
Step 5
Ask one of your friends to play the role of the postman Pechkin - put on him a big mustache, a raincoat and a hat with earflaps. Let in the midst of the fun, when the house is full of guests, the postman will ring the doorbell and ask for the birthday boy. Having delivered the holiday package, he sits down at the common table and tells a couple of stories so that the children believe that this is the real Pechkin. If you invite animators, then Carlson, or another favorite character, can bring a gift.
