Gamer's Gift Idea

I'm heading back to the US today and will be back to comment, thank you for hanging with me while I have been away.  My internet in Canada has been shaky so I haven't been able to stop by and say hi as I wanted to do.  I had an amazing time, ate too much, did a lot of walking and even met a Housewife from the OC ... oh yes I did and I got a picture too (to come soon).


Cole's friend from school had a party a while back, I asked his mom what he would like and she said anything to do with a game system.  I thought perfect I'll make a gamer basket, I found an idea on Bubbly Nature Creations and ran with it to make it my own.

What you Need:
Game (Found in Walmart $10 bin)
Licorice
Candy (assorted)
Gatorade (For re-hydration)
Beef Jerky
Corn Nuts
Popcorn Basket

I hit up Dollar Tree for the popcorn basket to hold all the items.  I found some candy items to go with the beef jerky and other items.  I also found some Pez dispensers in Star War's that I had to get.  Arrange it in the bucket, if need you can always put some tissue paper in to hold everything in nice.  If you don't know a game they like go ahead and pick up a gift card for like Google Play or a game store (like Game Stop).  Easy to put together and kids love them!


Have a great day!

Don't forget to see the parties I link up to HERE.
