Here are some ideas that you might like to include in your basket:
- Books or magazines – they love to read? Add in something for them to enjoy over the easter break.
- Flowers – whether it’s a potted plant, cactus or a fresh or faux bouquet, brighten their day with something pretty to look at.
- Candle – we may be moving into warmer months but the warm glow of a candle and it’s fragrance will be a welcome in any home.
