How to Make a Babywormcore Giftbag
Gifts That Keep on Wriggling!
Obviously, babywormcore is all about embracing your own creativity, yet sometimes we need a little inspiration to help us along! These are giftbags I made for the other members of my polycule when they came up to visit in order to help them get wormy and squirmy. Take these as suggestions and examples and put your own twist on it.

Praise the Great Gummy Worm! Gummy worms as both sweet treats and worms are quintessential babywormcore snacks. I went with Lily's as they are a vegan brand. These are sugar free as well if that is a concern for you or your friends.
Famous for their appearance in Grave of the Fireflies, Sakuma drops are not made anymore, but you can get similar drops from other companies or replace this with pocky or your favorite anime treat.
A bath bomb is a great way to relax and take a little time for yourself. The sweet scent and sprinkles of this specific one help to tie it back into the candycore adjacent elements of babywormcore. This is an excellent chance to get crafty if you can make your own as well!
Everyone loves stickers and they don't break the bank! In this case, everyone got a pastel goth coffin lollypop sticker and a sparkly rainbow worm on a string sticker. Some witchy or naturey stickers would work her as well. Or you could make your own!
Crystals hit that nice green witch and nature appreciation angle of babywormcore nicely! The crystals pictured are amethyst, citrine, smoky quartz, and regular quartz. I wrapped them in brown packaging paper to keep them from damaging the other items.
These specific pins are konpeito pins, but you could go for candy, worms, clowns, or whatever would round out the aesthetic of your gift bag. Buttons could make a cheaper alternative.
This embroidering floss was to make friendship bracelets, incorporating the crafting and DIY elements of babywormcore. Other DIY crafts could work here as well. My thoughts include note pads, crayons, pencils, and slime making kits.
I wanted to hit the kidcore and nostalgia elements of babywormcore, so I asked everyone what their favorite pokemon was and got them a holographic card of that pokemon. Yugioh cards may have worked for this as would gachas for some relevant animes.
