Getting Kids Reading

The Christmas gift your 2 year old will love (no batteries required!)

Do you know what present you’re buying your two-year-old for Christmas? Are you stuck for ideas for something memorable and meaningful?

Growing up in France, I was given one main present from Santa Claus at Christmas, which was the custom. I was perfectly happy with that – and I bet my relatives were relieved that they didn’t have to find lots of gifts for me each year! When I moved to England I continued the tradition, buying my children just one substantial gift and perhaps a couple of smaller presents to unwrap as well. 

I think lots of families like to do the same thing. But buying presents for 2 year olds can be tricky, can’t it? Which is why I love getting letters like this one from customers who’ve found the perfect Christmas gift at Tidy Books…

‘I bought your bookcase for my 2-year-old boy and it was a huge hit! Bedtime stories took a lot longer than usual last night because he could see the front of so many books, and stories he’d forgotten about were suddenly appealing.’ Fiona

It’s great to know that the giver gets as much enjoyment from the gift as the receiver. It’s the sort of gift that allows parents to spend quality time with their two-year-old, watching them interact and have fun with their books. And for toddlers, it’s the perfect gift to help build up their independence as they start to choose their own books. The bookcase and book box can also be personalised with a name to make it that extra bit special for the owner!

Our sturdy products are made to last so your enjoyment will continue for many years to come as your two-year-old grows along with their book collection. It’s perhaps the reason why lots of grandparents buy our bookcase as a present for a 2 year old.  They prefer to give a special gift to their grandchildren that won’t be forgotten about when the Christmas decorations come down. And doesn’t involve batteries or staring at a screen!

* Want to order for Christmas? Our bookcase and book box can be ordered up to 13th December, or the 10th if you’d like it personalised.
