We have already commented on the announcement that has become viral these days, the one in which some children show their greatest wishes for Christmas: spending time with their parents. Today we look at another spot that also attracts our attention and shows us that the simplest gift can be the most fun and we offer you ideas to surprise children this holiday season and have fun with them in the kitchen.
A child has been given a mold to make cookies, and he is so happy playing in the street when some ladies ask him about his gift and they are surprised: "Just that?". That's when the child, missed, remembers EVERYTHING that simple mold has given him, all the fun moments with his parents.
In the kitchen preparing cookies, throwing flour, beating eggs, decorating and eating sweets ... It has been such a good Christmas gift that the child does not understand what the ladies mean and runs away. They, then, sympathize with the little one and buy shoes.
But it is clear to the viewer: thanks to creativity, imagination and the company of the parents, that child has many other great moments to enjoy as a family with his simple and cheap Christmas gift.
This is also an Ikea ad that affects the same idea as the previous one, encouraging consumers not to get carried away by consumerism and to reconsider the true meaning of Christmas and the wishes of our children. "The other Christmas" is claimed, a simpler and more authentic celebration.
At a time of the year marked by consumption, is it necessary to make large financial outlays with our children? Not thinking about the economic crisis but about a matter of solidarity and common sense. Isn't Christmas illusion? What do children really want but to spend more time with us?
This spot contrasts the innocent vision of a child who does not know the economic value of the cookie sheet to the material vision of adults regarding the same object. The child does know where the true value of things is, why do adults not make an effort to return to that illusion, to "furnish our heads"?
It is not that the child knows at first all that is going to give him that cookie mold. When you open the gift, he looks at him astonished. But that is when the parents cross an accomplice look and get to work as if to say: "Now you will see what this gift is for." And the fun begins.
