Eidi Gifts & Eidi Envelopes in Lahore — Cash Gifts Made Special for Kids
Eidi is the money elders give children on Eid; Bloom & Beyond does not handle the cash, but delivers a small handcrafted gift to go with it anywhere in Lahore, PKR 800 to PKR 3,100. Eid-ul-Fitr 2027 is expected on Wednesday 10 March 2027 in Pakistan, and an order confirmed before 5pm Pakistan time on Chaand Raat arrives on Eid morning.
From abroad, you pay us for the gift and the family hands over the cash — so the child gets both from you on the day.

Gifts to go with the Eidi
These run PKR 800 to PKR 3,100, read live from our catalogue: the pieces made for children first, then our smallest Eid gifts. Each arrives with a handwritten Eid card carrying your message.
What Eidi is
Eidi is the cash that elders give children — and often younger relatives — on Eid, usually in crisp new notes and an envelope. The UK Muslim magazine Amaliah describes it simply as receiving Eidi "from the elders", and Khaleej Times' Eid gift guide suggests giving cash "in a beautifully decorated envelope or holder with a personal note".
In Pakistan the word also stretches beyond children. People search for "Eidi for wife", "Eidi for sister" and "Eidi gift box", meaning any Eid gift for someone you look after. For those, see Eid gifts for a sister and gifts for your wife.
How much to give is a family matter and we do not set a number. If you want a starting point, our Eidi guide on the Eid collection lists typical amounts by relationship.
Eidi envelopes — what we make and what we do not
Eidi envelopes are not a listed product in our catalogue, and we never put cash inside a gift. What every gift does carry is a handwritten Eid card with your words, in English or Urdu.
For a child, the pieces made with children in mind are Little Eidi Gift Box for Kids (PKR 3,100) and Kids Snack Basket (PKR 1,500). The family can hand your envelope over with the gift, so the child opens both together.
Sending Eidi from abroad
We deliver the gift; the cash travels separately, with family or by a transfer app such as JazzCash or EasyPaisa. You pay us for the gift from abroad by Remitly, Taptap Send or an international bank transfer, and we photograph it and send you the photo before it leaves our Lahore studio.
For Eid-morning delivery in Lahore, confirm before 5pm Pakistan time on Chaand Raat (expected Tuesday 9 March 2027). Several children in different homes can go on one WhatsApp order — give us each name, age and address. Delivery is charged separately from the product price. In Lahore it starts from PKR 500 and varies with the location, distance, order type and delivery method; other cities are quoted when you order. Any extra charge, such as urgent delivery, is confirmed before your order is final.
The order-by time in your own clock is on sending Eid gifts to Pakistan from abroad; gifts for the grown-ups are on the Eid collection, and Ramadan visits on Ramadan gifts in Lahore.
Eidi questions
- Can I send Eidi to my niece in Lahore from the UK?
- You can send her a gift, and the family can hand over the cash. We do not carry or transfer money; we deliver a small handcrafted Eid gift (PKR 800 to PKR 3,100) with a handwritten card in your name, and you pay us from the UK by Remitly, Taptap Send or an international bank transfer. The cash itself can go to her parents through a bank or a transfer app. For Eid-morning delivery, confirm before 5pm Pakistan time on Chaand Raat.
- How much Eidi do people give?
- There is no fixed amount, and it varies by family, city and the child's age; we do not set one. Our Eid collection page has an Eidi guide by relationship at /eid-collection#eidi-guide if you want a starting point.
- Do you put cash inside the gift?
- No. We never handle cash. The gift and the card come from us; the money comes from you through the family or a transfer app.
- Do you make Eidi envelopes?
- Eidi envelopes are not a listed product in our catalogue. Every gift carries a handwritten Eid card with your message, which many senders use to say the Eidi is on its way.
- What is Eidi called in English?
- Eidi is usually translated as Eid money or an Eid cash gift — the money elders give children, and often younger relatives, on Eid.
- When should I order an Eidi gift for Eid morning?
- Confirm the order before 5pm Pakistan time on Chaand Raat, expected Tuesday 9 March 2027; Eid-ul-Fitr 2027 is expected on Wednesday 10 March 2027 in Pakistan. All dates depend on the moon sighting — we deliver on whichever day is announced.
