Many children are looking forward to Knowledge Day with excitement and anxiety. This is especially true for first-graders: for them, September 1 is not just a holiday, but the day they enter a new life. To cheer up and please the child, parents ask themselves the question: what to give for September 1? When choosing a surprise, you should proceed from the interests and age of the child. After all, what a first-grader will like may not suit, for example, a sixth-grader.
Here are some gift ideas for the first of September that will delight your child.
Gift for a first grader
A gift for a child who is going to school for the first time must be chosen carefully. The child crosses the threshold of a new life, where he will have to learn to take on responsibility and obligations. Knowledge Day for a first grader is like a birthday - the child acquires a new status in society. And at this exciting moment he needs the support of his parents.
How to choose a gift for a first-grader:
- A special approach – take into account your child’s preferences and interests.
- Individuality - do not give your baby something that another person can use. Let the gift belong exclusively to the “hero of the occasion.”
- The right accent - emphasize the child’s new status with your surprise. He is now not just a kid, but a schoolboy.
- Low cost - the future first-grader will want to show his gift to friends and classmates. Therefore, you should not shell out too much money so as not to control the use of the gifted item.
Gift options for the first of September:
- Modern gadgets - a mobile phone, a small netbook or tablet, a player with headphones or a computer console.
- School theme - illuminated globe, original table lamp, new comfortable chair.
- Memorable gifts - a good pen, cufflinks for a school uniform, an engraved watch.
- Toys – educational games, kits for home experiments, construction sets or puzzles. You can stop at a soft toy, but then it’s worth giving a special emphasis to the present - saying that this is a talisman for good grades and successful studies.
- Clothing, but not everyday, but special - a bright T-shirt or bomber jacket, stylish sneakers or sneakers, an elegant dress for a girl, fashionable jeans for a boy.
Separately, you need to highlight gifts made with your own hands - a hat, scarf or gloves; photo frame or exclusive photo album.
Visit to an amusement park
Children have always been impressionable creatures. Therefore, you can please your child by going to an amusement park, exactly the one he has been dreaming about visiting for a whole year.
Take him on all kinds of rides, buy cotton candy, balloons, ride a horse or pony, feed him a delicious lunch in the park restaurant.
How many unforgettable and vivid impressions will this honestly deserved fun walk give the student. Your baby will remember this gift for a long time.
You can take a photo of him on all the carousel swings, and then make a photo album “Celebration in honor of the end of first grade.”
The best gift for a first grader
A watch with GPS function is not just a good gift, but also an indispensable thing for any parent. With them you can be calm about your child, while at the same time giving him freedom.
A smart watch with a GPS tracker will be the best gift due to its many advantages:
- the presence of an emergency call function - sending an SOS signal from a watch is easier and more convenient than from a smartphone;
- reliable fastening will not allow the child to break, lose or leave the device somewhere;
- convenient location (on the hand in front of the eyes) will not allow you to miss a call or message from a parent;
- Limiting the choice of applications will prevent your child from constantly being distracted in class. Instead of entertainment content, smart watches have built-in educational and educational programs, mathematical and logic games.
With the help of a smart gadget, parents can exercise full control over their child:
- monitor his location and movement;
- listen to sound around the device;
- establish “safe zones” for the child;
- send text and voice messages, make calls.
Order a smart watch for a schoolchild in the official store and receive a “Where are my children” license as a gift. With it, the watch will work without failures and with the smallest error in GPS coordinates.
How to choose a watch with GPS for a child?
The diversity of the model range allows you to choose a device to suit every taste and budget:
- waterproof watches that are not afraid of rain, snow and other “disasters”;
- budget models costing up to 4-5 thousand rubles;
- watches equipped with additional functions (camera, pedometer, flashlight).
The most popular smart watch models include: Smart Baby Watch Q50, LEXAND Kids Radar, Hiper BabyGuard and others. You will find a detailed review of each model in our blog.
Admiring reviews from parents will help you decide on the right gift for September 1st.
Always knowing what’s wrong with your child and where he is – it’s worth a lot! The main purpose of purchasing a smartwatch for my 5-year-old son is audio monitoring of what is happening in kindergarten. The watch copes with this with a bang! We have been using them for 4 months now and now I am calm about my child, no matter where he is.
- Irina, 36 years old.
With the purchase of this watch, I practically do not worry about my daughter - I always know where she is, what is happening around, and if necessary, I can contact her at the moment. For little money, parents now have the opportunity not just to control, but to protect their child. Magic watch!
- Tatyana, 38 years old.
Deciding on a gift is half the battle. It is equally important to correctly present a gift to a newly graduated student. Don't do it in a hurry. It is better to set the table, gather with the whole family and solemnly congratulate the baby on this significant event.
Picnic for the whole class
Giving children a country picnic is the best type of gift. Of course, parents will have to prepare: choose a place, arrange refreshments, think through competitions for children, invite animators.
The gift will be fun and memorable - with the presentation of small souvenirs, diplomas and medals “For completion of 1st grade”, the release of balloons with wishes and other fun.
This event will help the kids become even closer friends and may become an annual class tradition.
Gifts for the first of September for any age
School themed gifts are the most popular. However, it is worth remembering that a pencil case, stationery and notebooks will not cause a strong positive reaction. If you are going to give items needed for school, then choose original things. For example:
- illuminated zoogeographical globe;
- desk overlay with your favorite cartoon characters;
- bright rotating organizer for stationery;
- stand for textbooks and books;
- a large encyclopedic dictionary about animals or history and geography with colorful images;
- pen for several colors in the form of characters or animals;
- educational magnetic board complete with markers and sponge;
- smart diary with tasks and tests for every day;
- a kit for a young tester in the field of chemistry or physics, so that the child can conduct experiments at home.
If a child has a certain hobby, you can give a gift useful for this: an album for drawing or embroidery, tools for modeling or beading.
Board games that will not only entertain the student, but also develop his logical thinking, reaction and dexterity will be useful: chess, backgammon, lotto, strategic games.
Lego constructor
Plush toys, plastic cars, soft dolls are already a thing of the kindergarten past. A person who has entered second grade is interested in educational games.
The Lego constructor is an ideal option. They come in various themes. Observant parents can easily determine what will be interesting to their child – pirates, Indians, robots, princesses, little mermaids or something else.
In addition, you can purchase additional sets for the selected series. It will make a fascinating gift for developing and expanding your horizons.
Gift for a girl on September 1
Little girls are naturally softer and more sentimental than boys. Despite the fact that they will also be pleased to receive a board game or an interactive map as a gift, it is better to pay attention to more “girlish” gifts:
- a doll, a set of clothes for it or a dollhouse with interior decoration;
- soft toy – big bear, cat, etc. This surprise is perhaps the most universal - it will delight a girl in any age category;
- inexpensive, good quality jewelry - earrings, pendant, pendant with a zodiac sign or name;
- original box for storing valuables.
Excursion out of town
Children are very inquisitive. Very often they dream of some kind of trip. Perhaps the child is interested in visiting a real fortress, riding a boat, going fishing with his father, or for a whole year he has been dreaming of visiting a farm where ostriches are raised.
Parents know their children’s wishes well, so it will not be difficult for them to organize a cherished excursion for their child.
Gift for a boy on September 1st
When thinking about a gift for a boy, a parent can choose from school-themed items or opt for more abstract, but no less interesting options:
- construction set, lego or puzzles;
- an illusionist's kit that will entertain, surprise and develop intelligence;
- binoculars and a microscope - things unknown to the child will cause a doubly vivid reaction;
- sports equipment - gifts in the form of balls, a bicycle or a pear are suitable for active and restless boys.
In conclusion
A boy of 6-7 years old is already considered quite old. He has his own interests and hobbies, but still retains his childish naivety and outlook on life. Entering 1st grade is a serious and responsible step, during which the child needs to be supported. Of course, he will need the support of his loved ones. But children value gifts no less. Especially if we are talking about something desirable that they have long wanted to get. By making your first grader happy on this important day, you can reduce his fear of a new stage in life!
