National Neighbor Day is coming up on September 28th, which makes it a perfect time to celebrate your neighbors and welcome new ones into your neighborhood! Learning how to be a good neighbor can start anytime, whether you have lived in a neighborhood for a long time or just purchased a new home.
Celebrating your neighbors can be a simple as hosting a summer barbeque to dropping welcome gifts at a new neighbor’s door. These goody bag gift ideas are low-effort and can help any new kids on the block feel welcomed into the neighborhood. Grab a basket and add on one of these printable goodie bag tags to welcome your new neighbors!
- Grab some popular candies to put in the bag. Avoid candy that children could be allergic to, such as peanuts.
- For outdoor activities, grab colorful sidewalk chalk and bubble wands to put in the basket.
- If the family has younger children, grabbing a stuffed animal like a teddy bear can be a great addition to the basket to add a bit of comfort.
- If the move-in is during the holidays, add some festivity to the basket with a holiday scavenger hunt printable!
