Anneli’s Story: How One Mom Discovered the Perfect Gift with Lastella Kits

Whenever my son had to attend a birthday party, the same question came up: “What should we give as a gift?” In this blog post, I’m sharing my personal journey of how Lastella’s DIY kits became my go-to solution — a thoughtful, joyful gift idea that’s saved me countless last-minute shopping trips and gift-giving stress.

The Best Preschool Gift Idea – Without the Stress!

Every time my son received an invite to a preschool friend’s birthday party, I faced the same dilemma: what gift to bring? While little kids absolutely love presents, I’ve noticed from experience that many gifts get forgotten quickly. Sweets disappear in a flash, and plastic toys often end up at the bottom of a drawer – the excitement fades too soon.

So I began to choose gifts more intentionally. Living far from big shopping centers, every gift hunt turned into a small mission. Finding something thoughtful last minute became both stressful and time-consuming.

That’s when I discovered Lastella DIY kits through a friend. The first one we tried was the gummy candy kit – a huge hit with my son. It brought so much joy that I began gifting them to others. Eventually, I started ordering five kits at a time so I’d always have one on hand for any occasion.

That first preschool year, I gave gummy candy kits to all of my son’s friends. Once everyone had received one, I moved on to the lollipop kits – with the same enthusiastic response. Kids were thrilled, and many parents later asked where I had found such a cool gift.

Now I always keep several kits at home – not just for birthdays, but for spontaneous visits and special occasions. It’s saved me from countless last-minute store runs and gift anxiety!

Why Lastella DIY Kits Make Perfect Gifts

  • They’re more than just a toy – kids get to create something with their own hands and enjoy it afterwards.
  • It’s a confidence booster: they proudly share their handmade treats.
  • Quick and doable – even after a busy workday, you can do it together.
  • The molds can be reused with homemade gummy recipes or new powder mixes from Lastella.
  • Lollipop molds are versatile too – perfect for smoothie popsicles or even homemade caramel treats
  • A unique, emotional gift – not just another plastic item that gets forgotten in days.

Every time I give a kit, my child says, “But what about me, Mom? I want to make some too!” So we often order extra flavors and make another batch together. I also love that Lastella’s gummy mixes use natural flavorings and colorings.

What About the Littlest Ones?

For the youngest kids, the yogurt ice cream kit from Lastella is ideal. Even tiny hands can help mix yogurt and powder, and they’re especially happy to lick the bowl clean afterwards! The mold is reusable too – perfect for freezing purees, smoothies, or custom ice pops. What I love most is how shallow the mold is – the ice cream doesn’t snap or fall out of a child’s hand while eating.

And School-Age Kids?

Now that my son is in school, we’ve started the gift-giving tradition again – back to the gummy kit! At first, I wasn’t sure if older kids would enjoy it as much, but they do. One parent even told me our gift became their child’s favorite. The kits are universal – great for boys or girls – and still feel personal and thoughtful.

Honestly – once you try it, it’s hard to go back. These gifts are simple, special, and always appreciated. You won’t regret it — and later, you’ll be glad you made the choice.
