No fail. Birthdays or holidays, at least one of our three kids gets a gift that requires batteries. And more often than not, we are not prepared with the exact type of battery needed to make the toy work.
And anyone with young kids can almost hear the whining or visualize the pouting little face when the toy can’t be immediately played with! How great would these occasions be if mom, dad, grandparent or friendly neighbor had all the necessary types of batteries on hand?

I always tend to buy lots of batteries ahead of Christmas, because the kids are easily disappointed if they get a new toy and batteries are not included…
Thank you for the reminder, and for sharing at The Really Crafty Link Party this week!
We keep a drawer in the kitchen filled with batteries and I try to take note of when gifts will need some. Those round, flat batteries are the bane of my existence:) Nice gift checklist! Thanks for sharing at Vintage Charm. xo Kathleen
