What is a Gift?

A gift is usually an item or even money given to another person. It's different from buying something because you don't get anything in return. People give gifts to make others happy or to mark important events.

When Do We Give Gifts?

Gifts are often exchanged on special days. Think about birthdays, where friends and family give presents to celebrate. Holidays like Christmas are famous for gift-giving, with presents often found under a Christmas tree. For Easter, people often give chocolate treats, like chocolate eggs.

How Are Gifts Given?

Small gifts are usually wrapped in colorful paper. This makes the gift a surprise and adds to the excitement. Larger gifts might be given in a box or simply handed over without wrapping. The thought behind the gift is often more important than its size or cost.
