Copy me and don't wrap

I love wrapping paper as much as anyone, and I really try to make my gifts look nice for weddings and baby showers. But yesterday I discovered that when going to a toddlers party, it's best to ditch the wrapping and bring the gift with only a big bow attached to it. I did this yesterday for a two year old's birthday party and he loved it. I gave him a tow truck and a book about tow trucks. Then, I held it together with a simple red bow. He quickly took the bow off and played with the tow truck for awhile. And his friend read the book like 5 times in a row. I watched him look at the pictures over and over again. So give it a try and you'll feel all happy that you got the birthday girl/boy something you know they used at least once before getting bored with it.
