Stray kids, how they say 'I love you'

Chan

Giving you his time.

Chan is always busy, always has new songs to make, always has to go practice, go to the gym, go to meeting and all.

However you will know he loves you when you enter his studio. No matter what he is doing or working on, he will close his laptop. His attention is all on you. He isn't hiding anything....maybe a new album.

In a world where he isn't an idol, Chan will show his love by spending time with you! Kept up with work, didn't have a good sleep, kind of depressed or tired, it doesn't matter, he will go wherever you want with him!

Lee Know

Sometimes having a cold exterior, he will show his love secretly.

Being mobbed by fans and cameras, he will keep you close by, just walking through the city, he will walk wear the cars are, shopping and your bags are heavy, he will hold them. In other words he is a gentleman.

Having not chosen the path of an idol, Lee Know will lean more to acts of service. Folding clothes, opening jars, reaching tall things. He shows his love by always been there and able to help you :)

Changbin

His laugh lights up a room.

Showing his love doesn't have to be with money. Changbin prefers to show it by making you smile and laugh. Spending time together, tickling, cuddling, watching movies which all involve both of your laughs.

If his rapping didn't cut it, hopefully his family fortune will come into play. Because Changbin will spoil the fuck out if you. Not turning you into a gold digger, his pricy gifts are filled with love!

Hyunjin

Random gifts

Never flaunting his money, he will show his love by gifting you things! Not always being random he is thoughtful and knows what you like! dresses, gold class tickets, Jewellery, he will gift it to you!

Straying away from the path of an idol, Hyunjin shows his love by adventuring with you. Trying new experiencing and opening new memories is how he shows his life. He wants to have many memories of you, all of them with you smiling :)

Han

Finding a way to navigate his idol life.

His life is stressful, there has been many downfalls however he shows his love by never giving up. He is always there for you and shows he still loves you and always will even with his hectic career.

If his mum didn't let him, Han would show his love with spending time. Festivals, movie nights, dates, double dates, camping! Anything that involves a few hours together is how he shows his love! He always wants to be with you!

Felix

Giving you his warmth!

Felix is always up for cuddles! He will hug you, cuddle with you, hold hands, snuggle in bed! He shows his love by staying close to you. With his crazy schedule, hugging close in bed for a few hours means everything!

If he had stayed in Australia, Felix would still show his love by touching! Having always been a touchy guy, that'll grow since he won't have cameras spying on him. He will hold your waist more in public, showing his love to everyone.

Seungmin

Secret and quietly.

He cares and loves you deeply! Not being able to show you will be hard with his quiet nature and cameras following you. He will open doors for you, know your likes and dislikes, know your favourite food so he can cook it!

If the helicopter hadn't woken up his inner idol than Seungmin will show his love by quality time! Every once of his day is towards you! His attention will always be on you so don't worry bout every feeing left out!

Jeongin

his thoughtfulness.

Knowing what you like, your fears, your family. Knowing all of this and being able to live life is his love language. He acknowledges everything about you and loves you for it! Never feel embarrassed around him!

Set on being a priest! jk, not being in the spot light will enable jeongin to express his love more, and he has many ways. He will be into pda, openly willing to give you his credit card and other ways!

5 “I hate Christmas shopping.” - “I love Christmas shopping!” with chloe kelly.

There are only a few things you truly hate in life and shopping is one of them. You will happily do it online but in person, that is something you avoid.

“What do you mean you haven’t done your shopping?” Chloe shouts from the living room of your apartment.

“I didn’t need to. I found presents for you and your family and mine aren’t coming until the 28th hence why I am going out today”

To you it was simple and you worked better under pressure but by the look on your girlfriend’s face doing your Christmas shopping on Boxing Day isn’t the best idea.

The look on Chloe’s face is very familiar. It’s the one she gives you when you go in for a bad tackle or when you argue with the ref. It tells you that you are wrong and she is right.

“And it’s cheaper!” Your attempt at justifying your decision doesn’t work.

“It’s the Boxing Day sales idiot of course it cheaper. It’s also going to be busy and let me guess you want to go to Trafford centre”

“Yes, I do. If we go there then we don’t need to go anywhere else”

“Who said anything about we? I already have your family’s presents”

“Perfect! We can just add my name to the tag”

“Y/N your parents are flying all the way from Australia to spend New Years in London with us, the least you can do it buy them a gift” you go to interrupt but Chloe holds her hand up “and no, you are not getting them gift cards”

“Fine but please come with me” you give her your best puppy dog eyes knowing that they have never failed you in the past.

“Go get ready” Chloe pushes towards your bedroom.

“You’ll come with me?” your turn around excitedly.

“I can never say no to those eyes”

“The eyes Chica, they never lie” you quote one of your favourite films.

“That doesn’t even make sense. Now go” Chloe playfully smack your bum.

“I don’t care. I’ve always wanted to say it”

A couple of hours later and you are half way round the Trafford centre and it’s no surprise to you that your good mood soon soured when you entered the shopping centre. Chloe on the other hand seemed to be in her element and proved this by picking out most of your families gifts only including you when she needed your credit card at the checkout desk. Chloe had put you on pay duty and bag carrying duty.

After a quick food break and dropping the first load of presents back the car, Chloe is ready to hit the ground floor shops.

In your eyes you were done. Every family member that was visiting had a present, some had two yet Chloe kept telling you that you needed more.

“I hate Christmas Shopping” you were fully aware that you sounded like a child but you didn’t care. Your mood was worsening and your patience was running very thin.

Then you notice the shop that Chloe is pulling you into. Victoria’s Secret. More importantly into the lingerie department.

You watch her try several pieces on and you even get to pick some out. When you leave the shop you are in a much better mood.

“I love Christmas Shopping” you joke as you walk back to the car.

about me — people i’d like to know better.

LAST SONG. Online - TWRP Feat. Tom Cardy & Montaigne. I’ve been a fan of TWRP for a number of years now, as well as loving Tom Cardy’s chaotic energy from when I used to watch his Tiktoks (I’ve since deleted the app as it was a huge time-waster for me), so when I heard that they had collabed for a song I knew it’d be a banger. I’ve had it on repeat since it was released.

FAVORITE COLOR. I really love dark greens, burgundy and warm, autumnal yellows. My bestie also gifted me an Oracle deck for my birthday and I adore the similar colours/ wintry forest palette that it has. I think it’s been a big inspiration, even if the cards keep calling me out!

CURRENTLY READING. I’ve been slowly plodding my way through The Way of Kings  by Brandon Sanderson; I’m enjoying it but just have not had the spoons/ attention span to dedicate to reading. I tend to gravitate towards audiobooks nowadays, which I listen to when I’m driving.

The most recent books I’ve finished have been audiobooks during my commutes- I’m Glad My Mom Died by Jeanette McCurdy, and Cultish: The Language of Fanaticism by Amanda Montell.

CURRENTLY WATCHING. I’m watching more YouTube at the moment than serialized shows. One of my favourite YouTube channels, Lore Dump, has started a series on the Yakuza games and I’m really enjoying the chaotic energy that Chase brings to the host seat. 

The idea behind the channel is that one of the three hosts does a full plot recap of a game franchise that the other two have not played or aren’t familiar with. They’re long form videos that you can treat like podcasts or put on in the background (I use them for my commute to/ from work), and they’ve covered series like Bioshock, Metal Gear, Red Dead Redemption and Batman. They also did a 12 video series on Kingdom Hearts that is just under 30 hours long, which I highly recommend if you’re into long haul deep dives!

I love it because the hosts clearly love the series they’re talking about dearly, and hearing the others gradually getting swept up in the excitement of the narratives is really entertaining.

SWEET, SAVORY, OR SPICY? I’m a sucker for savoury foods, but I do get the occasional craving for sweet foods. Sadly I can’t tolerate spicy foods like I used to :<

RELATIONSHIP STATUS. Happily married for the past eight (nearly nine) years! My partner and I married young, and it’s hard to believe it’s been so long already. I adore him so much and it’s been a joy to grow alongside him.

LAST THING YOU GOOGLED. “Do they make scuba suits for dogs”.  This was for our modern day TTRPG game, using the ‘Everyday Heroes’ module for D&D 5e. 

The game is set in Australia in the 2070s after a catastrophic rise in sea levels, and because we’re playing in our home state, we’ve been able to use google maps and a lot of real-world resources in the game which has been super fun. We’ve even made an interactive map to keep track of important locations.

In our last session, we found information that points to us needing to go to locations under the new sealine and joked about taking our rangers’ sniffer dog along on the dive.

The answer we got is yes, there absolutely are diving suits for dogs.

CURRENT OBSESSION. I’ve been getting back into playing mobile games in my downtime! A few long-time favourites of mine are below- bear in mind that I’m on Android so these may not be available on iOS if you want to check them out.

The main one I’ve been playing is called Luna Story; it’s the first in a series of 3 apps that are nonogram-based games. Using a grid and a sequence of numbers, you fill in the grid to create pictures. I’ve had Luna Story installed on my phone for years and have been sporadically playing it, but I’ve recently dived into it again and am playing it before bed, on my lunch break and even when I wake up some mornings. The grid sizes range from beginner (5x5) to advanced (20 x 20) and uses super cute pixel art.

The other is called My Oasis, which is an idle clicker game where you progressively grow an island with animals. It’s got lots of positive little messages in it, like the abilities to buff your clicking being called virtues- like ‘compassion’, ‘selflessness’, etc. The animals I’ve chosen for my island are all favourites of the people I love- a fox for my little sister, a red panda for my husband, giraffe for my mum- even a racoon for myself. The animals can speak via bubbles with encouraging messages, and sing to you- you can sing back to them with a little keyboard at the bottom of the screen. Super cute, if a little clunky at times.

Hey hey! I wanted to ask what are some of your more “out there” headcanons? Maybe there’s no basis in canon (or just a shred of a basis) but you still believe it wholeheartedly?

Baaaaabs!! Thank youuuuuuu ♥️♥️♥️

I feel like my whole bible of the Pesto brothers is perfect for this exact kind of headcanons but for once I won't ramble about them ahahaha-

• Zeke's head is full of crazy "conspiracy theories". He thinks massage chairs are evil, mammoth cloning is happening somewhere in Antarctica and canned tuna is not a real food. He never have any logical explanation to his belief, just that he can feeeeeel it

• Jocelyn is like, absolutely terrible at Geography. She can't tell apart the West and the East and one time points at Australia on the world map asking if this is North America. "Jocelyn, can you name a country that starts with an U" - "Ummm, Europe :D!"

• There was a phase when Louise was super into demon summoning rituals. She kept dragging Tina and Gene to help her summon one during Halloween. She thought if they bribe that thing enough candies and Bob's pumpkin pie it would get her a pet shark. Cuz Santa and Tooth Fairies suck ass, they never kept their promises 🙄

• Teddy and Trev go to the same book club. One time they gush about Little Women for like an hour

• Trev is no.1 Lego fanboy. He keeps buying them for Andy & Ollie both because he loves the twins AND so he can have an excuse to play those with them

• Bob and Linda normally would be hesitated to buy the kids new board games cuz they ain't cheap until Louise says something like: "Guess we'd never know which one of you two is better at this game" and that's all it takes for them muppets to grab the credit card

• Mr Branca loves Italian opera. It's what he listens to when he's working (he told Tina he was once in a relationship with an Italian opera singer, but would you believe him 👀?)

• Jimmy Jr is probably the second person of the group to have nonsensical fights with Tammy the most, after Tina. Tammy loves annoying him and half of the time he just kinda ignores it but when it comes to things boy's actually petty about he ain't letting it go. He's terrible at comebacks though

• Cynthia has a collection of expensive purses and Logan steals one of them once to gift it to his prom date trying to ask her out. He also steals his mom's made-in-Japan fancy pens a lot

The Markets and the Grill (Week 13)

Back in Coogee! After over a week of traveling, it was time to rest. Classes continued as normal and everyone’s desire to fervently enjoy our home, Coogee beach and Sydney, returned. Tuesday was marked by trivia at the Coogee Bay Hotel. Our 3rd place finish granted us a $25 gift card split six ways, so we were practically swimming in our winnings. On Wednesday I went exploring with Lauren and, like usual, we came across more of Sydney’s hidden gems such as Hyde Park and the neighboring Cathedral. St Mary’s Cathedral might as well be located in the winding streets of Spain with how much it resembles the cathedrals scattered throughout Europe. Just take a look for yourself!

On Saturday, a few of us market-lovers headed off to the Glebe Markets where incredible artisans and undiscovered chefs celebrate their passions by selling their work at stalls. I was personally more than happy to celebrate with a Turkish Gozleme full of chicken, spinach, and mushrooms. From Glebe, we made our way to the Paddington Markets which displayed more of the same. This time, I celebrated with two of the yummiest falafel pitas! I was particularly interested in a booth containing black-and-white photos of Sydney’s eastern suburbs from the 1900s. Having spent my limited time here, it was mesmerizing to see how much Coogee has changed in the last hundred years. The most notable change being the removal of a massive dock splitting the beach right in half. I was also surprised to see that the beach was just as packed back then as it is now!

Conveniently, nearby there was someone selling copies of their artwork portraying different neighborhoods of Sydney, so I made sure to get one of Coogee to commemorate my time living there. The Glebe and Paddington Markets are just two of several that Sydney showcases on a weekly basis. If you ever find yourself in town, make sure to visit at least one of them! 

On Sunday, we woke up and claimed one of the public grills on the grass just above the beach! Scattered around the beaches and parks, Sydney has conveniently located free-to-use public grills which are always full of families or groups of friends picnicking, grilling, and clearly enjoying themselves. It was only a matter of time before we could make it happen. It was food galore. We had corn, burgers, veggie skewers, hotdogs, career salad, toasted buns, chicken skewers, watermelon, a chocolate pastry, and more I’m sure I’m forgetting. Between the grilling, the food, the beautiful weather, the beachside view, and the company, we were really living the dream. Better yet, we followed up with a game of volleyball on the beach, and then a dip and rock scramble in the rock pools. The day simply could not have gone any better, and I have the hostel to thank for that. Living with a group of 18 other students studying abroad, eager to get out there and have fun has truly made my time here. I can’t wait for our remaining adventures together as our final month approaches. Cheers!

Baby Bats & Buddies of Australia is a bat rescue organisation who needs help at the moment.

They are eeking donations, but also have an amazon wishlist (see this post) so international supporters can help, and also this redbubble.

There are not that many of this kind of animal rescue, and they are trying their best with an influx of unwell little ones.

-------------

From their post 21hrs ago:

"Sorry to repost we need your help we only reached a few people, so hopefully we can reach more to get the help we desperately need. Together we can all make a difference .

Please know every dollar helps feed them and gives them a safe place to eat which is so very important.

We really need your help. It's not just their food we buy. It's cables ties which we go through a lot, buckets, clamps, clips arches, lattice ones that are arsenic-free , ropes, shade cloth, troughs, hooks, wire and other odds and ends to make safe places for them. I love the time I put in getting the fruit, cutting it and hanging it so don't get me wrong but the worry how long I can do this is getting harder. Even if you can't help financially watch a video or two that costs you nothing but helps the bats. We need to help them all to stay strong . This will explain why I do this and how it's helped the bats. Thank you

After the starvation event, fires, then the heat stress we needed to give the bats the best chance.

Giving them safe places to feed has become just as important for their growth. Right now they're getting sick from eating cocas palm berries. So we want to give them good food.

Any little bit helps to fill their tummies. Thank you

PLEASE HELP THE BATTIES!

GALTx eNews: GALT's 2023 Fair Dinkum Aussie Auction!

G’Day, Mate, and welcome to GALT’s 2023 “Fair Dinkum” Auction honoring our new Aussie greys. We’re learning a whole new language with these hounds who bark with strange accents! What’s “Fair Dinkum?” This phrase originated in Derbyshire and Lincolnshire, Great Britain, meaning “a due share of work.” If you did your share of work, that was “fair dinkum.” Nowadays in Australia it means “true, honest and genuine.” GALT would like to think we do our fair share of work for the hounds, and our love for them is definitely true, honest and genuine, so “Fair Dinkum” it is!

In the last two months, GALT has welcomed 45 Aussie greys to the USA and placed 19 of those into other greyhound adoption groups. Some stayed with us temporarily and some we helped transport, but all were coordinated and processed by GALT. Of the 26 Aussie greys in our care, several are already in foster homes, but 17 Australian greys are currently in boarding at GALT’s Houn House kennel. With an average of over 30 dogs in boarding, our monthly expenses for food alone exceed $1,650 per month. Our Houn House operating costs (utilities, kennel staff, and other expenses) average over $18,000 monthly. In addition, we often incur unexpected capital expenses for drainage issues, heating/cooling problems, etc. This auction will help us cover some of our boarding/food costs at Houn House and/or the next “surprise” capital expense that arises.

You can help GALT defray the expenses for our Aussies and other hounds in boarding by bidding in our “Fair Dinkum” auction. We have the usual array of jewelry, art, gift cards, doggie stuff, accessories and more! Have all the “stuff” you need now, but still want to contribute? You can make one or more $25 cash donations via auction lot #40, the Aussie FAN (Fund-A-Need) Club! Bidding is already open and runs through May 21, 2023, at 9:00 pm central time.

Many thanks to the donors and volunteers who have made this auction possible, and thanks also to you for participating to help the hounds. We truly appreciate the support of our GALT village!

Websites like Etsy and local Australian artisans often offer bespoke gifts that can be tailored to your specifications.

4. Easter Treats with a Twist

While chocolate eggs and bunnies are Easter staples, consider sending something a bit different this year. Think about gifting a box of gourmet macarons in Easter colors, a selection of exotic fruit jams, or even a DIY hot cross bun kit. These unique treats can provide a delightful surprise and a welcome break from the usual Easter chocolates.

5. Experience-Based Gifts

Australia is a country rich in experiences. Give the gift of an adventure this Easter.

Oh the second baby announcement.... arsenal and chelsea teammates will go wild so will the Canada and Australian team ...their baby shower they will have no place in their house for people as it will be full

there are people flying in from the states, canada and australia for this goddamn baby shower. it’s an event, okay? sam, kristie, leah and steph completely took the reins and organised the whole thing.

kristie is the biggest help because sam and leah run around like chickens without heads. she’s a drill sergeant.

this woman has a system and it works. they rent a small venue because with the four teams plus you and jessie’s immediate families, it’s going to be crowded, the food is ordered and the silly games are well and truely sorted.

the four of them absolutely smash it and the baby shower is a huge, chaotic hit. everyone loves it.

instead of everyone getting you individual gifts that would take up far too much room in your place, they all chip in some money for the new baby so you and jessie can buy what you need as you needed. you guys do get loads of cards though, which is cute too.

you and jess are absolutely exhausted by the end of it and end up having a smaller dinner with your parents and siblings a few days later.

A New Story, from the Southern Highlands

This road trip crystallised some initial thoughts and resonance on craftsmanship, fashion/ food/ design regarded an art form beyond framed displays or craft-store supplied mediums, and appreciating it more fully with writing, reflection or documentations.

The initial interest was piqued in tertiary education - writing "why I liked X" in an Art module; to which I wrote a piece on the music video "Robbers" by The 1975. Circa 3 years later, doing a cross-disciplinary and cross-university module in a Fine Arts collage for one semester where was introduced to Abstract Art and researched on Robert Motherwell; then acrylic paint an impression painting with his technique - which now still hangs on my bedroom wall back in Singapore. Another 2 years later, discovering the master storyteller Niel Gaiman through a literature lecturer in university who was introducing us to book publisher awards and as it turns out, was one of the best discoveries of my student life; rekindling an appreciation for non-fiction books. Starting Mood Work, a wellness e-commerce store - copywriting for my own website, personal branding, a moment of clarity for my designer spirit. Soon joining a local fashion designer where yet again, explored another dimension of art - craftsmanship, quality, creating from inspiration. It was good to know it existed.

-

Art took a stop for a while. I decided that I won't be doing it for work (where it doesn't pay as well as a corporate job), but I would do it as a hobby - only writing cards, decorating my living spaces, gifting nice presents. As income, work titles and competence became more important to me, art and work wouldn't be held in the same space in my life for the next 3 years.

-

How long does it take to get over something/ someone? Can you lose a part of yourself? Can you forget a dream?

-

Becoming a Christian is a lot like moving to a new country, because it gives me a new perspective on culture, and outlook of work i.e. a Singaporean who firsts moves to a foreign country is shocked to discover how many of one's intuitions and practices that she considered common sense and universal are actually particularly Singaporean or personal ones (and are ridiculous to other people). By living in another culture (both geographically in countries, and expanding my view of Freedom and Love in God), I get a vantage point from which I am now cognisant of myself, and as a result I am slowly changing, dropping some attitudes and adopting others.

Freedom and Love is making me see everything in a new light, but it is taking time for me to grasp and incorporate this new information into my life, day to day decisions and pursue a bigger life.

-

Southern Highlands crystallised this for me: Australia is big on people. At the workplace, team culture where everyone is a contributor and collaboration and new initiatives for improvements are encouraged, you wouldn't go far if you kept your head down. It's not boastful, it's using and offering your talents and time to problem solve.

Cafes support it's local talent when they hire their staff, when they put on a local artist for the playlist streaming in the background, when their chef is skilled with techniques and flavours to cook with ingredients that uses the season's produce (therein the artful mastery like a pianist who is so skilled with their scales, that they can compose any piece thereafter). This reminds me of the skill to live everywhere and always (a continued inner work and teaching). There's effort put into doing the work, marketing the work for advocacy, and support from the community.

Services are charged 13% extra on public holidays - I finally understood and am appreciating how the country instills laws for it's people.

-

This learning experience may never truly end, but I must remain gentle to myself and spirit as I hold on to faithfulness and continue declaring Truth when fainthearted. The light is winning "Jesus lived the truth of this commandment, and you also are living it [loving others]. For the darkness is disappearing, and the true light is already shining" 1 John 2:8.

So I take heart. Love is an action, all I have to do is trust that patience, kindness and goodness will flow from springs within - for I am not a reservoir, You are an ocean.

Yes, I am changed, and changing still. This transformation will never truly end.

-

Today I prayed myself into the dream.

It's not blasphemous to say I am made for more.

How to Surprise Kids with Virtual Children's Gift Baskets in Australia?

In today's digital age, the joy of receiving a thoughtful gift knows no bounds, even if the exchange happens virtually. Childrens Gift Baskets Delivered Sydney are a delightful way to bring smiles to the faces of the little ones in your life, whether you're near or far. In this article, we'll explore creative ways to surprise kids with virtual children's gift baskets in Australia, ensuring the excitement and happiness are as real as ever.

Choose the Perfect Theme

The first step in creating a memorable virtual gift basket is selecting a theme that resonates with the child's interests. Whether they adore dinosaurs, superheroes, princesses, or animals, there's a theme for every child. The theme sets the tone for the entire gift basket and makes it more personal.

Examples of Popular Gift Basket Themes:

Adventure Time: Fill the basket with outdoor exploration goodies like a compass, binoculars, and a magnifying glass.

Arts and Crafts: Include a variety of art supplies, colouring books, and stickers for creative kids.

Movie Night: Provide popcorn, a cozy blanket, and a selection of their favourite movies for a perfect movie night.

Gourmet Treats: Add a selection of gourmet chocolates, cookies, and snacks for food enthusiasts

Superheroes: Choose superhero-themed items like action figures, comic books, and masks for young superheroes in training.

Personalize the Experience

Personalization adds a special touch to virtual kids hampers. Consider the child's name, favourite colours, or a heartfelt message. You can create a custom digital card or note to accompany the gift, making it more meaningful.

Embrace Technology

The magic of virtual gift-giving lies in technology. Use video calls or virtual meeting platforms to present the gift basket in real time. It allows you to witness the child's reaction and share in their excitement.

Go Beyond the Basics

A children's gift basket doesn't have to be limited to physical items. Think outside the box and incorporate virtual experiences, such as e-books, online classes, or virtual museum tours. These additions can enhance the overall surprise and provide opportunities for learning and fun.

Include Interactive Elements

Engage the child's curiosity and creativity by including interactive items in the virtual gift basket. It could be a DIY science experiment kit, a puzzle, or a craft project they can work on independently or with family.

Plan a Virtual Scavenger Hunt

Turn gift-giving into an adventure by organizing a virtual scavenger hunt. Provide clues and riddles leading to different components of the gift basket. The child can embark on an exciting quest to uncover their surprises.

Share a Story

Create a story or narrative around the gift basket theme. Share it with the child, incorporating elements from the basket into the story. This storytelling approach adds an element of wonder and imagination to the gift.

Coordinate with Parents or Guardians

If you're not the child's parent or guardian, coordinate with them to ensure that the surprise aligns with their preferences and any dietary restrictions or allergies the child may have. It ensures a safe and enjoyable experience.

Explore Australian-Themed Gifts

If you're sending a virtual children's gift basket to someone in Australia, consider including items that reflect the country's unique culture and wildlife. Australian-themed puzzles, books about Australian animals, or even a plush kangaroo can make the gift extra special.

Make it an Educational Experience

Incorporate educational elements into the gift basket to make learning fun. Puzzle games, science kits, or books on fascinating topics can pique a child's curiosity and provide hours of educational entertainment.

Schedule a Surprise Delivery

Coordinate with a local gift delivery service in Australia to have physical items from the gift basket delivered to the child's doorstep. It adds an element of surprise and anticipation as they await the arrival of their special package.

Encourage Exploration

Include items that encourage exploration and discovery. Whether it's a nature-themed gift basket with a magnifying glass or a space-themed basket with a mini telescope, these items can spark a child's curiosity and love for learning.

Plan a Virtual Playdate

Arrange a virtual playdate with the child and their friends to celebrate the occasion together. You can organize games, activities, and even a mini-party via video call to make the gift-giving experience even more enjoyable.

Capture the Moment

Encourage the child to capture their excitement by taking photos or recording a video while they explore their virtual gift basket. It allows them to share their joy with you and creates lasting memories.

Maintain the Element of Surprise

Keep the contents of the virtual gift basket a surprise until the big reveal. Building anticipation adds to the excitement and ensures the child is genuinely surprised and delighted.

Conclusion

Surprising kids with virtual children's gift baskets in Australia is a heartwarming way to spread joy and create cherished memories. By selecting the perfect theme, personalizing the experience, and embracing technology, you can make the virtual gift-giving process as special and memorable as an in-person gift exchange.

Remember that the essence of gift-giving lies in the thought and effort you put into creating a delightful experience for the child. Whether it's a themed adventure, educational exploration, or a simple expression of love, virtual gift baskets have the power to bring happiness to the children you care about, no matter where they are in Australia.
