Return Gifts: “Ye 10 Rs. Wala Chocolate Nahi Chalega!
Because “humne toh last time 200 rs. ka gift diya tha” wali aunties exist.
But don’t worry! Here’s how to be smart and saviour:
– Animal-themed pencil pouches or stationery (local market FTW)
– Jungle stickers, pop-it toys, mini activity books
– Cute animal face masks
Buy in bulk, divide in paper bags, and stick a “Thank You for Going Wild With Me!” tag on top. Aesthetic bhi, economical bhi!
🎪 Games: “Bachche Ko Thakao, Ghar Jaake Soye!
Because “Mummy, bore ho raha hoon!” starts exactly 11 minutes into the party.
Here are some jungle-fun, low-budget games that guarantee giggles and meltdowns (from exhaustion, not boredom):
- Pin the Tail on the Tiger (Use a tiger printout and felt tails!)
- Feed the Monkey (Cardboard monkey face with mouth cutout. Kids toss in bananas.)
- Animal Sound Match (Roar, squeak, hiss! Whoever guesses the animal sound first wins.)
- DIY Safari Hunt (Hide animal toys around the room/garden. Give clues. Let ’em run wild!)
- Snake Limbo (Decorate a stick with snake print. Classic limbo twist.)
Pro Tip: Bacho ko thaka ke ghar bhejna is the best return gift for parents.
