Promotional Items for the Kids

Selecting promotional items and gifts for children is not the same as choosing those for business - here's a guide of what to look for.

Promotional items aren’t necessarily for business associates, customers, and employees only. Sometimes you’ll want to give items to the children of your clients and members of staff, too. These types of promotional gifts can really help to get your message out there, as the children may end up using the items at school or at the homes of friends, and even better, giving items to the kids makes their parents happy, too.

When choosing promotional items aimed at children, keep in mind that these items don’t necessarily have to follow the standard rules for promotion items. Anything that a child might find attractive makes a good gift, and you don’t always need to consider things such as the utility of the item, or the longevity of the advertising message. In fact, the expense of the item and the longevity of the message are not necessarily important at all. The truly important and beneficial aspect of giving promotional items to children is the impression that it makes on their parents—your clients, customers, and members of staff.

  • Crayons and Coloring Pencils

Crayons and coloring pencils are ideal items to use for any school-related promotion, or simply to have on hand as items for the children of clients, business associates and employees. You’ll be unlikely to have as many opportunities to give out such items as you will items that are for your clients and staff, but they’re always good to have around “just in case”. With sets of coloring pencils starting at just ¤0.35 each, they can be a great way of pleasing the kids, and more importantly, their parents too.

  • Frisbees, Boomerangs and Yo-yos

Frisbees, boomerangs and yo-yos are the perfect business gifts for company events—employee sports events, picnics and other social occasions where your staff members and their families will be present. These are fun leisure-time items that will provide entertainment for the kids during the event, and afterwards too when they’re allowed to take the items home with them.

  • Logo Bugs

Logo bugs are very cute, fun and low-cost items that are always popular with children. These super-cute tiny toys are available in a range of colors and shapes, including a variety of animal shapes such as pigs, frogs, rabbits and elephants. A very colorful, inexpensive way of getting your message out there, logo bugs make ideal casual items for children in retail stores where their parents shop. By offering a range of logo bugs for the kids, you can use these as purchase incentives for their parents too. 

  • Balloons
Balloons are always popular with children and adults alike, and with these fun items available for just ¤0.09 each, they’re a fantastically low-cost way of promoting your business. Granted, a balloon doesn’t last longBusiness Management Articles, but consider that when you give a child a blown-up balloon or two they’ll likely spend the rest of the day carrying them—and that can mean a potentially large amount of public exposure for your advertising message.
