I run a Community Centre, one of our rooms is used by an old folks group who come in once a week on Tuesdays.
The lady who collects the keys brings her daughter with her, who brings her grandchild too. I’ve known them for 4 years, but obviously only see them once a week, and not at all during lockdown.
The little girl is very sweet, she’s maybe approaching 2 and I make a fuss of giving her the room keys when she comes in each week.
Her family are not very well off, the little girl recently won a prize from my workplace of a very small colouring book and a box of 4 crayons and her nan said she would put it up for Christmas for her. It’s something that’s stuck in my mind ever since.
In tkmaxx today I have picked up a small teddy bear for her, it was only £6.99 so nothing extravagant, but I feel like she’s probably not going to get a lot, so this little gift will be a nice added extra. I usually send a tub of chocolates around to the old folks at Christmas and give the lady who comes for the keys a box of biscuits so it’s not unusual for me to give them something at Christmas.
The trouble is I can’t remember the little girls name…. I’m not sure whether it’s lockdown or my age or what but my memory has got really bad so whilst I would have been told her name before, j can’t remember it now 🤦🏻♀️
I have bought a gift bag to put the teddy in, but what do I write on the tag?
I’m a bit embarrassed now to ask, they just call her the bab 😵💫
Any suggestions?
