Toy Box Baby Bento Gift Box
When I was shopping for my sister’s first baby, I knew I wanted to include some baby toys along with the more practical items, because all babies need adorable toys! Not having children of my own and never having bought or thought of baby toys, I did some research on Pinterest to see what was actually used by babies most often, then ordered and packed them all in a pretty Toy Box Baby Toy Bento!
This Toy Box Bento is packed with a Baby Mirror, Crinkle Books, Teether and Stroller Toy, the perfect baby toy assortment a new mother needs! For these and other Baby Gift Box Bentos, I used a 10 inch square box to house our gifts and it all just fit inside the box, so you may want to get a slightly larger box so that everything is a little less snug, especially the baby mirror I picked!
These boxes are also great as mailable presents for if you cannot visit your mama to be but still want to send a personal and thoughtful gift. Regardless of if you are mailing or giving in person, I encourage you to stuff the top of your box with tissue paper so that items don’t move around while shipping or wrapping, plus it makes it a fun presentation removing the tissue paper to a lovely organized baby gift!
Start by placing your baby mirror in the bottom of the gift box, as shown in the photos. Mine just fit and was a little snug, so you may want a slightly bigger gift box, but I love the look of a box bursting with toys!
2. Next, take your crinkle books in a stack and arrange them along the bottom edge of the gift box, overlapping each other but forming an even layer.
3. Now, add the stroller toy to the upper right corner of the box. Keeping the spiral together with your hand and the toy animals loose, tuck the spiral into the upper corner of the box, then tuck in each animal between the books and the spiral so that their heads are all facing up and their bodies are secured in the box, as shown in the photos.
4. Finally, finish your bento with the teether toy. Fanning the teeter bits in your hand, tuck the loop into the bottom and arrange them in the upper left of the box. Now your toy box is perfectly packed and brimming with all the essential baby toys for the newest little one you are celebrating!
