Fun-Filled Gift Ideas
from: Kathy Burns-MillyardGifts of humor or those that allow the recipient to have fun can
be a joy to give. It doesn't always have to be a gag gift on a
birthday milestone or for a retirement party. Light hearted
gifts can be given on virtually any occasion and at any time of
the year. So if you know someone who loves to have fun or who
could use a good laugh, try one of these fun-filled gift ideas:
Affirmation Ball: Did the Magic 8 Ball always make you feel like
chopped liver? Well, this gift puts a unique spin on the
traditional ball from hell - it's the Affirmation Ball and it
has only nice things to say about you. It offers tons of support
and encouragement when others let you down. If you're feeling
less than perfect, shake it up to get quick reassurance with
sayings like: you look marvelous, you're a winner, people love
you, at least I love you and have you lost weight. It's an
awesome gift to give friends and family. Find them online at
Redenvelope.com.
Moon Shoes: Kids can fly high into the air with a pair of
space-like moon shoes. Referred to as trampolines for the feet,
they have an anti-gravity effect and help build coordination.
They're great for bouncing, leaping and having fun. The shoes
provide safe and healthy exercise for kids of all ages.
Funny Apron: An apron featuring a humorous quote or image is a
great gift for an avid cook or backyard BBQ griller. Some
display the torsos of women in bikinis and male bodybuilders -
making the cook appear half naked! Others have funny sayings
like Does Not Cook Well with Others and Danger, Dad Grilling on
Barbecue. Shy away from the cheaper vinyl transfer aprons - make
sure you buy one that is screen printed.
Electronic Mad Libs: Here's a handheld version of the old paper
Mad Libs that we all played when we were kids. It's educational,
as well as entertaining! Hours and hours of fill in the blank
fun.
Joke Book: For the person that always seems to forget the punch
line or the five second comeback rule, why not give them a book
filled cover to cover with jokes, one liners, funny stories and
other tomfoolery on every subject imaginable? Go to you local
bookstore or Amazon.com for a huge selection.
Whatever Clock: For once, time doesn't matter. We all know
people who are constantly running late and really don't give a
hoot. Well, this is the timepiece for them. The clock boasts the
word Whatever and it gives the appearance that all of the
numbers have fallen to the lower corner. A fun, fun gift to give
someone who can't seem to keep track of time. Now they can
really say Whatever!
