Make Memories With a Gift of Experience
Roseville, Rocklin, Lincoln, and Surrounding Area Fun
Looking for something besides a toy to give as a gift? Giving the Gift of an Experience can be a great way to help with the clutter that seems to overtake any house with children in it. It can also be a way to help children appreciate doing something versus just asking for things. They can also be a way to bond with the kids, and create memories that they will always remember. Many gifts of experience are things that can keep on giving all year long too.
Experience gifts can be tickets to an event or activity, classes for a hobby or sport, a special trip, or even one of those monthly "kits" that you can subscribe to. Macaroni Kid has compiled a list of all kinds of things that can be given as an experience gift.

SPORTS LEAGUE FEES
Give the gift of participating in organized sports! You can find sports leagues and how to contact them in our GOOD SPORT! Guide. On gift day, make sure and make it special by making a quick certificate to let them know you are going to pay for it, or get creative. An example would be to buy a soccer ball, or a small squishy basketball and put a note saying you are paying for the season of fun.
