Choose a medium-sized to large item, like a stuffed animal or soccer ball with pump, and then cram it full of entertaining toys, school supplies, and personal hygiene products. Remember to include a photo and a personal letter as well; oftentimes, these are the child's favorite gifts!

DO NOT INCLUDE: Candy; toothpaste; gum; used or damaged items; scary or war-related items such as toy guns, knives, or military figures; chocolate or food; seeds; fruit rolls or other fruit snacks; drink mixes (powdered or liquid); liquids or lotions; medications or vitamins; breakable items such as snow globes or glass containers; aerosol cans.
