1. Introducing our gift vouchers!
Let’s start with the basics: what are our vouchers, and how do they work?
Our brand new Wicked Uncle gift cards are available in three different denominations: £20, £40 and £50, and they can be used to pay for any toy or game on our website, including shipping. The card is easy to use and redeemable at the checkout. And, there’s no need to spend all of it at once–the card will automatically save any unspent credit for next time.
Our vouchers come in a fun card with a custom gift message, making them a perfect, personalised gift suitable for any occasion. Just order the gift card in the amount of your choosing, and then we’ll deliver it direct to you or the birthday boy or girl, totally free of charge!
2. Why gift vouchers make brilliant gifts
Children love choosing their own gifts! Remember going to the toy store when you were a child and picking something out with your birthday money? The possibilities were so exciting, as was the freedom… Of course, online shopping makes it all a bit easier, with no trips to the shops necessary—but it’s still just as much fun.
Essentially, our gift cards let kids discover what we offer for themselves. And no matter which gift card amount you decide to give, your recipient will be sure to find something they’ll love. All of the toys and games on our website are tried, tested, and approved by our Wicked Uncle Elves. To make it even easier, you can browse toys by age, gender and category, so whether your favourite kid is a ten-year-old boy who loves being active outdoors or a five-year-old girl who loves science, they can browse a carefully curated selection of toys sure to appeal to them!
Of course, we love getting creative and making things more fun, so we highly recommend setting a ‘treasure hunt’ challenge for kids… For instance, you might include a message with your voucher that reads: ‘Use this voucher to find the one thing your heart desires that includes 1) the colour white and 2) a mechanical element’. You could change the clues to suit your theme… for instance, if you’re giving a voucher as an eighth birthday gift, you might challenge your recipient to find a toy that includes eight of something and their favourite colour. The possibilities are truly endless…
3. What occasions are gift cards good for?
Our vouchers make awesome gifts, no matter the occasion. Of course, they’re perfect for birthdays, and the fact that the child gets to choose their own gift means it’ll stand out from the pack and provide fun that lasts well beyond the day of the party. They’re also fantastic for traditional gift-giving days like Christmas and Easter… And if you’re giving gifts to multiple kids (cousins, siblings, nieces and nephews, grandchildren), vouchers make it easier and fairer, as everyone gets the same amount, and everyone has the chance to choose exactly what they want.
But gift cards are also perfect for those rites of passage like graduating from a class, finishing an important exam or not killing their sibling in the backseat during a long car journey…
Of course, you don’t need an excuse — gift vouchers can also be given as a just-because gift. Hey, kids only get to experience the wonders of childhood toy shopping for a short time!
