Children's Day Gifts Ideas

Children's day is round the corner and my sister, who works in a school is in need of some gifts for the students. She has a budget and it's very low - each gift shouldn't be higher than SG$2 (She prefers it to be below $1 actually).

I think it's not hard to imagine, there are very limited range of "cute" stationery that fits into this budget. So I once again turn to the vast online shopping world.

My sister need around 20-30 gifts. So, here are my orders:

12 x Stone design correction tapes. (~SG$6 for 12)

 

I love the design of this one and the surface is smooth. Tried one of them and the tape comes out smoothly. 

I'd give it a 4.5/5.

7 boxes of "matchsticks" pens (each with 3 pens and 3 refills) (~SG$1.10 each box)

 

I actually only ordered and paid for 6, so I guess I got one for free. I'd admit that they look cuter on the photos but nevertheless, these are still pretty cute and I've tried a few of the pens. They're surprisingly good to hold and smooth to write with.                                                                                                        

I'd give it a 4/5.


6 x Candy design correction tapes (~SG$3 for 6)

I tried one of them and they're working as intended and tape comings out smoothly. However, I do find that the quality can be a little better. For example, the plastic wrapper of the candy is slightly off-aliment with the cap. But it's not too obvious that it spoils the whole look of it.


I'd give it a 3.5/5.


I've also gotten a few pens for myself which I'll not include in here. But I'd say their stationery are of reasonable quality and their pens writes really smoothly. I'd also like to mention that the seller added extra protection for my parcel when I told him that these will be sent overseas. Thumbs up for customer service!

Total amount spent on all of the above (correction tapes and matchstick pens) plus shipment = SG$24.
