The anniversary of a loved one is always not only joyful, but also a little troublesome event, primarily in connection with the need to choose a suitable gift. I want the present to be special - useful, memorable, sincere.
Original gifts from daughter and son
If you want to give your father an original and memorable gift, then consider creating a photo book. Naturally, your dad will become her main character. Print photos of different years, come up with an original story, accompany the photo with captions. The finished and pre-made book should be given for printing.
The plot may be the story of your family or a funny adventure that once happened with your dad. You can make a photobook in the form of the story of one day of your dad or declare his love on every page of the book.
By the way, declarations of love and words of gratitude are another gift idea. Write on small pieces of beautiful paper wishes, recognition and words of thanks and put them in a beautiful box or box.
An unusual congratulation will be own baked cookies with wishes and predictions. The latter can be comic, but always kind and positive.
Many small gifts can be combined with one idea and arranged funny quest. Come up with a backstory, prepare assignments and clue cards. By the way, such a gift giving can be included in the holiday program - create the necessary surroundings, ask some guests to act together with you as the leaders of the quest.
Every man is a protector and a warrior.Moreover, your father, who has been protecting you from all the hardships and hardships throughout your life, has taken on the solution of the most difficult issues. Remind him of this, thank and present set of knives or a sword with an engraving. It will turn out symbolically and unusual. But men indifferent to weapons, perhaps, do not exist.
Name cake, sweets with wishes, compositions from sweets - A great gift, but goodies can and should be presented in an original way. Moreover, the same cake or another dessert can become the “highlight” of the evening's culinary program. If you know what dish your dad loved in childhood, you can try to reproduce it. Most likely, it will be a dish of home cooking, which is not easy to find on sale (or its taste will be significantly inferior to home). Find a master or try to master the recipe yourself - father will be especially pleased.
The original and delicious gift will be exotic fruits in a box. It is not difficult to order them today - they are delivered from warm countries fresh, in beautiful packaging. Such a gift can be given as a keepsake of a once perfect trip or with the desire to travel more. If the birthday man is not only dad, but already grandfather, then grandchildren can and should be involved in preparing gifts. Let the kids do it yourself greeting poster, postcard, learn a poem, song, dance.
On their own or with the help of adults, grandchildren can play a scene in which they will demonstrate the most important events in the life of the hero of the day.
What is useful to give?
Among the most popular useful gifts are household appliances and electronics. If you don’t know what exactly dad needs, give a certificate to one of these stores. A great option is a gift for health and personal care, for example, massage certificate. An unusual and useful gift will be a massage chair. If it seems too expensive or massive, take a look to the foot massager.
Continuing the theme of health care, we can recommend permits to the sanatorium, subscriptions to fitness classes, to the pool. For home health you can give orthopedic mattresses and pillow, salt lamp and humidifier.
You should not give objects associated primarily with the disease, and not with health. These include medicines, first-aid kits, apparatus for measuring pressure, blood sugar. Even if you know that they are necessary for the parent, it is better to buy them just like that, and not for their birthday.
Set of tools, utensils, furniture - All these gifts can be pleasant and long-awaited, if it was dad who dreamed about them. You can also arrange and pay. apartment or villa repair. By the way, if you chose this option, consider replacing the bathtub with a shower cubicle. With age, it will be increasingly difficult for dad to get into the bath, stepping over the side. The cabin is more convenient in this regard.
If funds permit, choose a model with hydromassage, sauna function.
Valuable Anniversary Presents
Among the valuable presents can be distinguished Travel packages to the sanatorium. For most of his life, his father works to provide for his family, to establish a way of life. A round date is an excellent occasion to thank him for this and give an unforgettable vacation. The main thing is to take into account the interests of the father.
If he loves a calm, measured rest and is not ready to leave far and for long, the best choice is a ticket to a sanatorium near his hometown. Such a person can also be given a weekend tour - 2-3 weekends full of emotions and new knowledge will allow you to cheer up and relax, but will not require serious preparation for the trip.
With age, many people dream of their own corner of nature. Present to parents country house or cottage in a picturesque location. If your father already has one, maybe it's time make repairs, replace the fence, erect courtyards. As a rule, a country house and a summer residence require considerable financial investments, there is always work there.
A valuable and pleasant gift can be a car. Of course, if dad has rights and a desire to drive a car. As an option, upgrade existing vehicles to a more modern model. You can think not only about your personal car, but also about a motor boat, snowmobile, etc. It is important only to consider the interests of your father. Any avid fisherman and just a man who loves outings in nature will be happy to receive a boat as a gift.
Household appliances and electronics - Another worthy gift for the 55th anniversary. Perhaps, any man will be happy with a home theater or a widescreen TV. In addition, you can purchase satellite TV and a comfortable rocking chair. The gift will turn out symbolic and comfortable - there is everything you need for a pleasant pastime.
Certificate for spa treatments or bath programs - Another worthy gift option for the head of the family for the anniversary. Jewelry - This is a solid and memorable gift. Men usually choose chains, bracelets, crosses (if your dad is Orthodox and wears a cross). You can also purchase collection coins, silverware.
These things can become a heirloom in the future, in addition, over time, they become more valuable.
Budget options
Home appliances - this is a gift that may be more expensive or affordable, but always necessary. Washing machine, microwave, slow cooker, electric barbecue - Gifts needed in everyday life and worthy of an anniversary. A computer, tablet or new phone will also please a man. Not every person of a considerable age is able to understand modern gadgets, so spend some time after the holiday on training and practice. Otherwise, the gift will be useless.
If your father is a summer resident, feel free to give him barbecue and barbecue, garden swings, tool kits, country lamps and figurines for decor. The fisherman will enjoy the new spinning and other accessories for his hobby. The motorist will be pleased to receive Covers for the car, cooler bag, DVR, car radio.
According to etiquette, it is not customary to give personal items and clothes for an anniversary. However, the rule applies only to strangers. Papa may well be given certificate to a costume store or just men's clothing. Large purchases for the season, for example, a sheepskin coat or branded jacket, will also please and warm (literally and figuratively) the hero of the day.
A set of bath towels, cozy slippers and a fluffy terry bathrobe - few men think that they really need these things. However, barely starting to use, they understand how convenient and pleasant it is. Give your parent extra home comfort.
Men are not forbidden to give strong alcohol. For a festive date, it is better to choose an elite drink. Present it in a beautiful package, you can accompany the gift with sweets, a basket of fruits, glasses. If funds allow, give minibar filled with expensive drinks.
Budget options include a group of gifts made by hand. It happens that the birthday boy does not have the financial ability to organize a magnificent celebration, but the 55th anniversary is an event that cannot be ignored.
Give dad a surprise - organize and pay for the holiday, invite old friends, relatives. Let dad think that a modest family celebration is planned, but instead he will receive a solemn event with festive numbers and congratulations.
In this case, do not forget to prepare an outfit for your father. Thinking that he is going to a quiet family feast, he can dress simpler and then feel uncomfortable at a big celebration.
