Putting together the best care packages for children seems easy enough. Go to the store and pick out a few cool items. You know, the latest toys, games, stuffed animals, maybe something that glows in the dark, or lights up, and add in some candy and snacks (but only the good kinds).
Care packages are an easy and pretty inexpensive way to make kids happy and cheer them up. I remember being a kid growing up going through cancer. And, on the days I had procedures, surgeries or chemo, my grandmother, Bamba, would often bring me a care package. Today, we call that care package, the Bamba Box.
But the Bamba Box care package for kids is more than just a gift box, by far!
Let’s take a look at what children (and teens) get with every Bamba Box care pack.
That One Cool Thing
Okay, I say that one cool thing, but actually, Bamba Box gift boxes for children come with many cool things. So when I say, that “one cool thing,” I simply mean they get that main item that’s the wow item. But again, most always, there is more that one “wow item.”
Yes, depending on the kid, and their age, they might get a Transformer, LED lights, Bluetooth headphones, a NERF gun, robots that can be built into functional machines, Captain America, Wacky Packages, art kits, huge stuffed unicorns, makeup kits, LOL items, Star Wars watches, and the list goes on and on. And keep in mind, we have care packages for children ages 4 on up to teen. And, have some special care packages for caregivers and adults as well.
Care Package Surprises
Every child loves care packages because they are not only loaded with all sorts of cool gifts, or should be, but most of the times kids have no idea what types of cool things they are getting. I mean our Bamba Boxes are absolutely loaded with all sorts of the latest cool toys and lots more.
Candies and Snacks
Our care packages for children include some really awesome candies and snacks, too. And, we make sure that we select candies and snacks that are appropriate for a child based on their age. Some people even email us what their child likes (or dislikes), and we make sure we provide those items when possible.
But, just to take a quick look, Bamba Box care packages might include Big Leage Chew, Ring Pops, Air Heads, Swedish Fish, Oreos, Takis, Mike ‘n Ikes, Sour Patch Kids, and a huge list of other types of candies and snacks. I mean, if it tastes good and kids love it, then you’ll probably find it in one of our care packages.
A Password to a “Member’s Area”
Oh, and then of course, every Bamba Box comes with a personal letter from me, Ryan Hamner. As you may know, I had cancer at 6, 9, 11, and 21.
The personal letter includes a link and a special password that allows children to logon to the members area of Bamba Box.
In the members area of Bamba Box, kids can watch exclusive videos. We have welcome messages from myself and Ewing’s Sarcoma survivor, model, and veteran, Brandi Benson.
We also have some free downloads of songs that I recorded. And, let’s not forget that one weird but fun video about blue crayfish, among others.
But, it doesn’t all end there. Nope.
A Virtual Concert
Our care packages are the only ones that allow kids to win a private virtual concert. Although I love providing a virtual concert to a kid in the hospital or wherever they may be, so do many other talented artists. I mean big artists!
For example, recording artists such as Blackberry Smoke, Matt Jordan, and others, have all been a part of providing kids with virtual concerts.
Just think how cool that is, not only does a kid get one super-cool care package loaded with really cool items, but they also might win a real-deal musical performance from some super-awesome, chart-topping recording artist.
The Wrap Up on Care Packages for Children
Having cancer or any chronic illness as a kid can be hard for the kid, of course, but also the entire family. The goal of Bamba Box is to give these kids a chance to have a little fun opening their Bamba Box and checking out all of the cool things they received.
But, unlike any other care package or gift box for kids that’s around, the Bamba Box comes with a member’s area, free downloads, exclusive videos, and that chance to win a private virtual concert or visit from some really cool recording artists.
Also, if you love the idea of Bamba Box, and you don’t know of a child who might need one or want one, we having a gifting program.
The gifting program allows anyone to be a part of Bamba Box and help children going through difficult times. Basically, you just “Gift a Box” from our online store, and we make sure that the box gets to a kid who needs it.
We have delivered boxes to foster kids, kids in need, and because of those who gift Bamba Boxes, we are able to send Bamba Boxes to kids whose parents might not be able to afford one.
