Birthday is incomplete without cards. But when it comes to buying birthday cards for kids, they are already clichéd. Also, they are unnecessarily expensive. You will find a simple picture on a card that too made of a low-quality paper and you have to spend bucks for them.
Further, kids love something customized as it makes them feel special (which they really are). The cards brought from the shop are mostly of a similar type and has no uniqueness. You will find one card in multiple numbers. Your kid will find that his or her birthday card is just the same that he or she saw at a friend’s birthday party.
Most often we tend to overlook this part of the birthday card. Since there are so many clichéd birthday cards available in the market we feel that there’s no point in thinking much about it. While we try to decorate our home on the kid’s birthday in a unique manner, we don’t really spend that amount of time when it comes to buying a card.
That’s because we already know they will be the same. So the sole purpose of a birthday card becomes almost a ritual that you HAVE to buy and after two days you will probably throw it away.
But what if the scenario gets changed? What we mean to say, how about you MAKE a birthday card especially for your kid? It will be extremely special as it will be made solely for him or her.
Also, it can never be the same as other’s birthday cards and this will make the kids cherish the birthday card. Not only will they love the card but possibly preserve them in the longer run. Also, your guests too will be amazed to see such unique birthday cards that are impossible to buy from any shop.
Further, customized cards give you an opportunity to decorate the entire party with the cards. Suppose your theme of the party is dressing up like zoo animals or animation characters.
Make some cards belonging to the respective categories and decorate the entire place with them. How amazing is that! Also, you may not even find such cool cards in local stores or they will be extremely pricy.
Remember, customizing the birthday cards will not only make your kids feel special but they will also feel a bent towards creating DIY cards. Thus this can kindle a creative artistic spirit in the kids.
Encourage your kids to help you while making a birthday card. Of course, you should make one in secret so as to give him or her a surprise.
