Overview

Gift Ideas

For significant birthdays, see below for some specific ideas associated with each number.
Some ideas for any birthday:
- Take them out for dinner. Have a look at our list of ideas based on dining options.
- Take them out to an event (music, theatre, sports).
- Take a trip somewhere. Have a look at our list of ideas based on travel destinations.
- Pick your giftee up some flowers. Check out our list of different flowers to see more ideas.
On a budget? Your time is one of the best gifts you can give. Offer to help with a project they’re working on or look after their kids for a night. Try designing your own gift certificate to represent the tasks.
Is your giftee your significant other? Come up with a unique date every month for your partner. Keep it a surprise and reveal the activity just before the date. This doesn’t have to be expensive. Consider things like a walk in the woods, making a fancy dinner at home or curling up with a movie. Make some of the activities specific to the season/month they will get that date (eg: tobogganing).
Do an online search for famous people who share a birth year with your giftee. Try working gifts/presentations around those famous people (eg: Tom Petty and John Candy were both born in 1950, try listening to some Petty while you give your gift and/or watch a John Candy movie like Planes, Trains and Automobiles)
Stuck for ideas? Donate to a charity that is close to your giftee’s heart.
Have a suggestion we haven’t covered here? Let us know and we’ll try to add it onto the list

Wrapping

Try wrapping with plain paper and applying pictures of birthday cakes, candles, etc onto the gift, or draw them on yourself.
If you’re interested in decorating/personalizing your wrap job but don’t know where to get large pieces of blank paper, most wrapping paper is single sided. Try putting the wrapping paper on inside out.
Print out a list of significant events that occurred on their birthday, use it as wrapping paper.
Newspapers or newsprint wrapping paper make a great wrapping option

Presentation

Put together a list of the most popular songs the year your giftee was born. Play it while they’re opening gifts.
Use quotes or phrases that relate to your theme when you present the gifts or in your card. For example:
- Birthdays are good for you. The more you have, the longer you live.
- “Don’t just count your years, make your years count.” ~George Meredith
- “Youth has no age.” ~Pablo Picasso
- “Do not regret growing older, it’s a privilege denied to many”
