How to Create a Fruitful Fun and Games Gift Basket for a Family

Bananagrams, Appletters, and Pairs in Pears are three games which when added to the traditional fruit ensemble will turn it into an extraordinary fun and games gift basket.  Since the three games all come in fruit shaped cloth pouches and are great family fun, they are the perfect games to include within and spice up a traditional fruit basket.

How to create the fruitful and fun games gift basket is simple.  First choose on a container.  The pleasing and healthy array of items can be placed inside either a wicker basket, decorate bowl, snack tray, or cloth bin for the later storage of games.  Depending on the desired price range will determine how large or small the container and the arrangement will be.

For a more expensive gift, all three games can be included within a large collection of fruit, snacks, and other complementary items.  However, this is not necessary.  Placing only one of the games of Bananagrams, Appletters, or Pairs in Pear with the corresponding fruit and a few unique items in a small wire basket can create a gift just as wonderful.

The interesting assembly can begin by placing the games with bananas, apples, and/or pears in the selected container.  One could decide to stop there.  Adding as much or as little depends on the creator.  If wanted, fruit drink mixes, a bottle of wine or fruit juices could also be added.  Pepperidge Farm entertaining crackers, pretzels, or specialty cookies make great additions too; the same with fruit roll-ups, jellies, microwave popcorn, trail mixes or nuts.  Any food items which can slide in between the games and fruits can become part of the charming array.

A notepad and pencils, deck of cards, or scented candle work well too.  The joining together of an assortment of drinks, snacks, small items and of course the games will provide a family with the essentials for having a family game night themselves.  The traditional fruit basket can be transformed into a basket full of fun.  This combination of fruit and games is a creative and ideal gift for a family and one which will bring continuing times for fun.
