I love this extension of kindness! Good job
I’d greet them first and see what they like. They probably won’t mind but if they do,.earplugs and wine lol…
Add some fluffy ear muffs, perhaps a bath set gift, assorted bickies and chocs and a card thanking them for being such awesome neighbours lol are they coffee or tea drinkers? There are awesome gifts in that department too.

A gift card for a date night.
Wine, fluffy socks, spa stuff, snacks, ear plugs. Anything self pampering! And u can get a lot of good stuff at a dollar tree or 5 below so it’s easy on the pocket. And I heard Aldi’s has good wine for good prices too.

Movie Passes so they can have a night away from the noise. Gift card for dinner or something. A card to let them know just how much it means to you. You don’t have to spend alot. Believe me, the smallest acts of kindness are always the best. I’m sure they’ll love whatever you get them.

I wouldn’t recommend alcohol as you don’t know what they drink if at all or in recovery etc so best to stick to other things like some choccies, some nicely smellies, maybe a couple different little cakes or couple of cupcakes maybe.

Maybe gift cards, some chocolates and a thanks you note for being patient with your kids living next door. I couldn’t imagine having to live in an apartment with my kids. More power to the families who live in one and for the neighbors who aren’t pissy about it

Awe this is nice. I really should do something like this for my downstairs neighbors tho, my 2 year old has a new thing where when he gets upset he drops to his knees all super dramatic like as if he’s in an R&B video. Between that and all the running around I just know they’ve gotta hear it. MY neighbor to the side swears she hasn’t heard anything, my apartment complex is pretty nice and seems to be pretty soundproof but there’s only so much sound this floor can absorb. That’s really thoughtful tho, I wish I’d thought of something like that before.

A bottle of alcohol if you know they drink or bud if you know they partake, some snacks, some nice earplugs, a candle and a card explaining the basket and showing your appreciation for their understanding in the future. Don’t put objects in there really but if you kinda have an idea about them you can figure out what they eat Yano.

A handwritten thank you letter for being so understanding and apologize for any inconveniences the noises have caused them. Let them know you are trying your best and offer them a meal. A crock pot of chili or soup, their favorite movie passes with a voucher for popcorn and a drink. A basket of muffins or something would work as well. It’s very kind of you to think of showing gratitude. If I was your neighbor just the letter and maybe a small bouquet of just because flowers would melt me.

While you send the basket in appreciation, you can also send it in humor.
I would send goodies, like snacks and candy, but I would also include a note, booze and ear plugs. Depending on your relationship with your neighbor and their sense of humor, as well as if they have children, I’d include a box of condoms because while we all love our children, we also know that they’re a great form of birth control.
If you don’t have that kind of relationship with your neighbors, let the condoms out, but definitely include the booze and ear plugs!

Gift cards for a dinner are nice. I would include things like summer sausage, cheese, crackers, and tea bags for iced tea. A thank you card would be very thoughtful.

I didn’t read comments, but having been in that situation before -
If your neighbors are a bit older, maybe ask if they’d like to spend time with your babies? They may have grandkids or nieces/nephews that are quite distant. Maybe lost a child.
A little I.O.U. handmade coupon book (I.O.U. picking up your groceries while I’m out, a car wash, {insert craft or hobby your enjoy/excel at} project of your choice, a tea date…whatever is appropriate).
A date night basket when y’all may do a date night. Wine, cheese, candles, soft (emphasis on soft), relaxing CD, to enjoy while you all are out.
A subscription. Magazine, streaming service, music/meditation service.
A class. Get them out of the house and into a new hobby. Or, yoga/meditation to help them deal with stress.
Earplugs (go big - air buds/headphones), sleep masks and aromatherapy diffuser.
Depends on your neighbors. Chances are, a gift card to a grocery, restaurant or big box store, in a fair amount to cover apps/meals/desserts for them and a thoughtful card would probably be quite enough (and! Note in that card that if they have issues with noise, please address you directly so you can both work out a mutually beneficial arrangement…i.e., please keep kids away from joint wall after 8PM, please if you could hold it down Tuesdays from 4-6…).
Good luck and brightest blessings!

When I get new neighbors I usually bake chocolate chip cookies and add a card with who you are and your phone number just Incase they ever need a friend to talk to. I will also add a package of gummy worms if they have kids.
