What happens in the gift-wrapping scene

The boy is down on his knees as he works on a large package in front of him. A ribbon runs around the present, and he is arranging it into a decorative bow. The setting includes a tiled floor and a short section of baseboard along the wall, keeping attention on the child and the package.

Useful facts about wrapping a present

A ribbon wrapped in two directions helps keep a package neat and gives the bow a secure place to sit. Many bows are formed from two loops, which are tightened in much the same way as the beginning of a shoelace bow. Wrapping on a flat floor or table can also make it easier to measure paper and hold the package steady.

Realistic colors for the boy and his present

  • Hair: naturally black, brown, blond, red, or shades between them
  • Skin: a wide range of warm or cool beige, brown, and deep brown tones
  • Clothing: any everyday color, such as blue, green, red, gray, or yellow
  • Wrapping paper: commonly red, green, blue, white, gold, or patterned in several colors
  • Ribbon and bow: often chosen in a color that contrasts with the wrapping paper
Questions and answers

Questions and answers

How does a ribbon stay around a gift box?
The ribbon is passed beneath the box and crossed over its top. Tying the ends together creates tension that holds it in place.
Why are presents wrapped before they are given?
Wrapping hides the gift and adds an element of surprise. It can also protect the item from minor scuffs while it is being carried.
What makes a bow easier to untie?
A bow made with loops can usually be opened by pulling one loose end. A tight double knot is more secure, but it takes longer to undo.
