Group gift for a preschooler's birthday
Preschool gifts default to plastic. Pool one real thing the kid will actually use for a year.
Preschool birthdays generate the most enthusiastic gift wrapping and the highest plastic-to-keep ratio of any age. The kid is delighted for ten minutes and the family inherits a year of stepping on it. Giftaro lets you redirect: name a real thing — a balance bike, a backyard climber, a swim-class punch card, a music-class series — and let everyone chip in an amount that's less than they'd spend on a wrapped toy.
Typical contribution per person: $10–$25.
Gift ideas
