Christmas Gift basket using a Webkinz theme:

If the child you are making a Christmas Gift Basket for already has Webkinz, you want to be sure that you find out from the parent which ones they already have. You will want to choose a Webkinz which the child does not have, as the center piece for your Webkinz Christmas gift basket. Webkinz are available at major stores like JC Penney, Books a Million, Dillards and Walgreens. The Webkinz website has a store locator to tell where you can buy in your local area. You will want to find something to build your Webkinz Christmas Gift basket in. A closable Rubbermaid container can become the pet's bed. You may use several pieces of Webkinz clothing to or a baby blanket for the animal to pad the bed for the Webkinz gift basket. Fill the basket with other Webkinz items like trading cards, lip gloss, pet figures, or perhaps t-shirts with Webkinz on them. To finish off your Webkinz Christmas gift basket, print off some Webkinz coloring pages and make a coloring book for the child on your gift list.

Christmas Gift Basket using a SpongeBob Theme:

If you have a SpongeBob fan on your Christmas list, a themed Christmas gift basket will be a well loved gift. Start your basket by looking for a SpongeBob lunch box or a trash can. These give you a way of building your gift basket theme starting at the container. Build the gift basket by adding a SpongeBob DVD the children do not already have. SpongeBob bath toys, mittens, pencils, or toothbrushes and toothpaste can be used to build the Christmas gift basket. Clothing articles that you may add to the Christmas gift basket include character underwear, socks, or slippers.

Christmas Gift Basket using a Junk Food theme:

Most children love sweets or snacks which they don't have easy access to. A Christmas gift basket with a junk food theme may make the child very happy but clear this with the parent first. You will need to determine if there are allergies or specific dislikes for the children you are making the junk food Christmas basket for. The basket base for this gift basket might be an old ice cream container, or a mixing bowl that mom can use to make a snack from. Fill the container with fruit snacks, Christmas candies, candy canes, packages of nuts, or maybe lollipops. A junk food Christmas gift basket might include Andes mints, pistachios, gum, or microwave popcorn. The options for items to include in the junk food Christmas gift basket are plentiful.
