Top 10 Gifts

The Top 10 Gifts are focused on grown-ups and not children, however some of these are a child's favorite too!

Now it is easy to select a gift for that special person with the list to review and consider - each item is special and has the potential for being an extraordinary birthday present.

The key to giving a birthday gift is to imagine what the honoree would consider to be his or her most special and memorable birthday present.

The top 10 gifts are birthday card (with money), flowers, books, wine, beer, chocolate, jewelry, clothing, sport or hobby and perfume or spa.

The presentation of the birthday gift is what will make them unique and personal. Special wrapping paper, ribbons or streamers give the gift the pizzazz that makes the gift memorable and fun.

Birthday Card - Most Popular Gift

If you believe that money is the best and most practical gift, please include a bank check in the card.

Never mail money in a birthday card!

There are many gift certificates which may be placed in the card instead of a check.

Flowers

Some people prefer potted flowers to fresh cut flowers because they last longer. Would the honoree like fresh cut flowers, potted flowers, silk flowers, or flower seeds and some gardening accessories?

Birthday Books

Some bookstores offer discount cards with annual fees. Consider buying the honoree a discount card with the book for future book purchases.

Wine

It implies that there will be a toast, that the honoree will savor of the flavor and the moment, and most importantly, that aging improves the wine and people.

The questions are domestic or imported, red or white, blended or not, sparkling or not...

What grapes would the honoree prefer?

Beer

Beer is associated with summer, ballgames, and at-home parties.

Does the honoree prefer domestic or imported, beers, ales or largers?

Chocolate

Chocolate may be given in cakes, cookies, candy, and ice cream.

There are chocolate mousse and chocolate cheesecakes, cookies with dark or milk chocolate, solid candies, and chocolate truffles.

The more expensive chocolate gifts are usually variety boxes with Belgium or Dutch chocolate. American chocolates have grown in popularity and are less expensive.

Jewelry

For men there are watches, necklaces, rings and necktie bars and tacks. Some men like a money clip and these are made of silver or silverplated brass.

For women there are watches, necklaces, rings, earrings, and brooches.

When buying jewelry as a birthday gift, be aware of sizes and return policies of stores.

Engraving jewelry with initials or name and the birth date is a special way of honoring the person.

Clothing

T-shirts, bathing suits, sandels, etc.

The idea is to have the clothing be exchangeable in case of duplication, in case of size problems, and in case of color change needed.

There are sports-related clothing, such as team shirts or hats. Also there are sports clothing for the golfer, the basketball, or soccer enthusiast.

Do your best to have the correct brand, size, style and color.

Sport or Hobby - Accessories and Tickets

You may have to collaborate with family or firends to find out size and what the honoree already has. Also plan with others so you can avoid duplications.

Accessories for the sports enthusiast, such as home or office gifts make this one of the most fun shopping events in the top 10 gifts list.

Perfume or Spa

If you think the person would appreciate a sample or variety, buy smaller sizes.

There is less concern for spa gift fragrances, however try to find out if the honoree already has enough lemon, sweet pea, or cucumber fragrance products.
