New Year holidays are a long-awaited and beloved time for everyone. Everyone, especially children, will receive desired gifts and pleasant surprises. Bright wrappers, sweets without limits - this is a child’s dream come true.

But in today’s time of gastronomic abundance, you can hardly surprise and delight your beloved child with just sweets. In order not to disappoint your little sweet tooth, a New Year's gift must meet certain requirements.
Diversity
Sweets and chocolate are no longer rare. Sweets are bought every day, so the main feature of a New Year's gift should be the variety of its composition.
Let the sweets in the gift be small, but there will be a lot of them and they will all be different.
If there are several children at the holiday, then let each one have a different gift. If the set is assembled independently, then you can take identical packages and fill them with different compositions.
In this case, children will be able to examine and compare their sweets, and exchange those sweets that they have already tried, which will take a lot of time.
Rarity
It will be great if the majority of the gift consists of candies, which are rarely bought. Well, if these are sweets that the child has not yet tried, then a flurry of emotions is guaranteed.
Surprise
From a New Year's gift, children expect not only excellent taste, but also some kind of intrigue. After all, just eating candy is boring.It will be great if the gift includes chocolate eggs with a surprise, marmalade or corn sticks with a toy inside the package. Even if they are not included in the composition, you can add them yourself. A good option would be to put any small toy (keychain, magnet, bracelet) in the box.
Bright or unusual packaging
Gift packaging is also of great importance. If you are assembling the set yourself, then it is better not to choose long-tired plastic bags with Santa Claus and Snow Maiden.
Nowadays it is not a problem to find ready-made gift wrapping. It can be either a cardboard or a tin box of a wide variety of shapes and colors.
Sometimes the packaging is designed for further use by children. For example, a cardboard box can become a bird feeder or a real house for dolls, and a tin can be a box for storing very important little things and valuables. The child will also appreciate it if the packaging depicts the characters of his favorite cartoons or books.
Even though such packaging is many times more expensive, the memory of the gift will not end with the candy eaten.
Quality and safety
The brightness and excellent taste of the gift are not the main thing. Any adult should understand that you need to choose the best for children.
- All candies, cookies and chocolate bars must be fresh and with a good shelf life.
- All products must be appropriate for the child's age. The chocolate in the set must be good quality milk chocolate or children's chocolate. It is not advisable to buy chocolate bars with exotic flavors and additives in order to avoid allergic reactions in the child’s body.
- If a sweet set includes different types of products (sweets, cookies, marmalade, fruits, juices, cakes), then it is advisable to assemble such a set at the last moment due to different storage conditions for its components.
There are a large number of ready-made sweet sets on sale. Such sets look great and the price range is wide, but only by putting together a New Year's gift yourself can you be sure that it will truly be safe, tasty and interesting.
