Children’s Day Gift Ideas: 6 Experiences You Can Gift Your Little Explorers

Children's Day Gift Ideas

‘The most precious thing in this world is a smile on the face of a child’ and to honour and protect this innocence we celebrate Children’s Day every year. In India, we celebrate Children’s Day on 14th November to commemorate the birthday of India’s First Prime Minister, Jawaharlal Nehru. Nehru adored children and was also lovingly called ‘Chacha Nehru’ by them. Kids are usually very excited to celebrate Children’s Day as it is a day when they enjoy all the attention they get from parents, teachers etc. Parents are often challenged to have the best Children’s Day gift ideas for their little ones.

While the latest action hero backpack or the largest box of chocolate will make your children happy, they seem to be ordinary Children’s Day gift ideas.

So for Children’s Day 2023, how about you plan something out of the box instead? Ditch the materialistic gifts and instead focus on making the best memories with your children they won’t forget for a lifetime.

Travel is a gift and memories made here are cherished for a lifetime. Taking a family trip can make Children’s Day special and memorable for your kids.

Here are 6 adventure experiences for your little ones you can give them to make their Children’s Day special.

1. Go On A Road Tripping Adventure

A road trip can be the perfect opportunity to teach your children that often the journey is more important than the destination. Along with that, you get to make a ton of memories, singing in the car, snacking on your favourites, playing fun games, clicking unlimited photos and enjoying the views. For long road trips you come across several serene spots you can stop and explore.

Some of the most adventurous road trips in India are:

Mumbai to Goa
Manali to Ladakh
Chennai to Pondicherry
Guwahati to Tawang
Kolkata to Puri

Pack your bags, stack your car and get on the road for some amazing road-trippin’ adventure.

One of the fun activities for kids would be to gift them a camping trip. Spending the day in the middle of nature, eating around the bonfire, playing with your family, etc. As the night falls, put on some flashlights or candles and read storybooks to them and at night sleep while gazing at a sky filled with stars. A fun-filled stargazing or camping night is what any kid would love to have as their Children’s Day gift ideas. Children would surely cherish this memory forever and also want to recreate it with their kids one day.
