Shop and Make Baby Activity Gift Bags

Any one of any age, any time, any where can volunteer to shop and make Baby Activity Gift Bags.

Baby Gift Bags filled with essential infant items help families who are going home for the first time with their newborn feel more prepared after many uncertain weeks/months in the hospital.

We welcome you to make and donate as many bags as you choose. Thank you for volunteering!

STEP 1:

Shop and fill each clear cellophane bag with these essential baby items:

2 baby pacifiers.

1 baby rattle/teething toy.

1 baby-safe lovey or stuffed animal with stitched eyes.

2 baby board/picture books. Books in Spanish and English are appreciated.

Shop all items for a boy, or a girl, or gender neutral.

STEP 2: (Optional)

Include a handwritten, decorated, There With Care printed note card in each bag.

Please ask for supplies of printed note cards.

On the note card, write the name of your family, corporation/business, school or faith/community group.

Write one phrase: Stories and toys. Enjoy! OR Get ready... it's playtime!

Decorate with colorful designs.

Write your first name, age (minors only) and city.

STEP 3:

Place items neatly in the bag with the front of all items facing the same direction.

Please ask for supplies of clear cellophane bags.

Place the note card inside the bag behind the items with the front of the note card facing out.

Use ribbon to tie the top of the bag and make a bow with strings.
