What to get your brother for his birthday?
An older or younger brother is one of the closest relatives and dear people. You can not expect a soul in him, but sometimes you don't get along too well with him. But he will not cease to be relatives even during the period of omissions and disagreements. A gift for his birthday must be purchased and handed over to the addressee. The brother is usually presented with not just a practical or original present, but one that demonstrates a special attitude.
Selection recommendations
If your brother is a fashionable hipster, then he probably wears a beard or mustache, which he looks after with special attention. Most likely, he visits a master in a barbershop and is picky about his own appearance. Presenting him with a beard (mustache) grooming kit would be the most practical solution. A hipster brother will keep his facial hair clean while keeping it looking well-groomed and shiny.
This type of kits even contains oil and dry shampoo to quickly tidy up your beard.
In addition, a real hipster looks after his shoes. A set for cosmetic shoe care will delight him no less than cosmetics for a beard... And if the funds are packed in a solid factory-quality leather case, you will get a worthy gift for a modern man.
Many young people prefer to move around the city listening to their favorite tracks. In headphones, it is more comfortable to do this for your own ears and those around you. The headset is especially important for the safety of cyclists or those riding scooters and scooters.
A compromise solution and advice for this case is to wear bone conduction headphones. They do not harm the eardrums and leave the auricle open. With such headphones, you can simultaneously enjoy the sound of tracks and hear everything that is happening around.
Other interesting gifts include the following.
- Dockholder - another fashionable thing of our time. Organizer for storing small things, papers, cards, money, documents. A beautiful and comfortable branded dock holder can be given to an older brother for his birthday. And it will be, indeed, practical and a gift to your sibling or cousin, showing your attentive attitude towards him.
In addition, a commemorative engraving in honor of a significant event can be applied to the product.
- Tumblr for drinking on the go. For example, the famous Starbucks. The original design of the tumblr of the world famous brand will allow you to stand out from the background of others. At the same time, it is practical - it does not leak in different positions, it is roomy and compact at the same time. You can choose an accessory for drinks for an adult brother and a little brother-schoolboy. Or two twin brothers. It is not expensive and very practical.
- Creative photopanel... It doesn't matter whether your brother lives next to him or not, how close you are to him spiritually, all the same the relationship does not end. You have common roots, and there is an attachment in your soul that comes from childhood. A birthday or anniversary will be a great reason to order such a panel for your brother. Let him remind him of your joint events, years of youth and kinship. Choose suitable photos, designs and packaging. The rest will be done for you by specialists.
- A means of transportation around the city. Electric scooter, electric unicycle, gyro scooter, segway - now there are so many types of compact electric transport that you can only choose according to cost and preferences. A frisky vehicle powered by electricity holds a charge for quite a long time. At the same time, its convenience is obvious due to its compact size. Walking with the breeze will be a great alternative to traveling in stuffy public transport with constant traffic jams and hustle and bustle. Alternatively, for a younger age - sneakers on wheels or a stunt scooter. They are also very funny and unusual devices.
- Named damask... Great replacement for a beer glass. With such a thing, it is easier to switch from a cheap beer to a quality drink, aged over time. The damask is guaranteed to sit in the center of the table during the celebration of important events. Down with bottles with standard labels! Make way for exclusiveness and good taste!
By the way, a damask or a flask is an excellent present for a military brother. Initials or full name and patronymic are applied to the glass of the damask. And on the flask, you can make any inscription for memory, indicating the date of the presented gift, as well as on what occasion it happened.
- Expensive cigars. Such a gift is presented only to smoking men. But caring for your brother involves replacing him with a less harmful option - an electronic cigarette.
- Hookah with related products. If the brother likes to smoke fragrant tobacco through a hookah, often visits smoking establishments with friends, the gift will have to "go to court". Now he will be able to enjoy the process of smoking from the comfort of his home. It is not necessary to spend money on an expensive option if it is expensive. The original hookah can be bought at a reasonable price.
Younger brother
It's no secret that boys love to build and design from childhood. Lego is good, but too corny. How about a knight's castle or an old brick lighthouse? In this case, a constructor with bricks will come in handy. The assembly instructions are quite clear so that a preschooler can figure it out.
Environmentally friendly materials plus beautiful packaging - equally enthusiastic eyes of the younger brother and an exciting activity for him for a couple of evenings.
If the brother is a lover of robotics and is crazy about innovative gadgets, then he will definitely like the electronic robot dog Pupbo, developed by the Silverit brand. Such a pet may well compete with a real puppy. Especially when the parents are categorically against the living creatures in the house. A robot puppy can learn a lot of commands as well as a live dog, and is capable of more.
Car or helicopter on a launcher. Oddly enough, but such a toy can please even a grown man, not like a boy. Present a controlled flight or road model to the hero of the occasion, let it play with pleasure.
For active people
Anyone who loves being on the move can be presented with something that contributes to him: roller skates, a mountain bike, skis, a punching bag with boxing gloves, a ball, tennis rackets. Or buy for him a subscription to the gym, pool, to the coveted section. Surely, the brothers share their impressions of which sport they prefer. It is better to build on this when choosing a gift for an active pastime.
Young guys are passionate about new hobbies. Their interests are usually already formed to a greater extent. Therefore, it remains only to develop opportunities. A teenage brother often wants something from this list:
- guitar;
- drums;
- synthesizer.
What can you do with your own hands?
Of all people, you know your brother better than anyone else. You understand what a joke on him will be taken with humor, and what can ruin his mood. You probably want to congratulate your brother in a way that no one from the entourage will definitely congratulate you. So compose an original congratulation in his honor and print. In the frame, it will look very unusual and touching.
- Video greetings - an even more creative approach to expressing feelings towards a brother. Photos of different years of life are freely available to you. Composing a small slideshow with music with modern software is no big deal.
- Hand knitted sweater. The hands of a loving sister are capable of warming no worse than the heart and not only with hugs, but also with handicraft talent. Buy threads and knitting needles that match the quality and color and surprise your brother with your care. Such a thing will become the most valuable thing in his wardrobe.
- DIY drawing or origami. A great gift for a little brother from a sister or brother of the same age. You can even make your own coloring with a "boy" theme: cars, military equipment and the like.
- Embroidered picture. Such a gift can be given by a loving sister. What to embroider - you will have to decide on your own. The level of skill allows some wizards to embroider a portrait, while others - only the inscription "Happy birthday!" and a memorable date. But both are a wonderful present for a long memory for a dear person.
For older relatives, there is another tip - creation of gift wrapping... You can use cardboard, the remnants of wallpaper, colored paper, any improvised parts (buttons, ribbons, braid). Even simple-looking craft bags will do.
You can decorate them with a paper tie (bow tie), or draw a funny face with a mustache.
Original ideas
Give your brother a cool present in accordance with his brutal masculine essence.
- For example, send a gift in a boarded-up wooden box that will have to be opened with a crowbar. Difficulty trying to get to the content will only inflame his imagination and excitement. Put the kit inside according to your brother's interests.
- To be late somewhere is indecent and not good. Organization is worth learning. Therefore, if the morning shocks in the side have no effect on your brother, give him an unusual alarm clock in the form of a bomb or dynamite. It will be a kind of hint that being late is a deadly risk. Systematic delays are beneficially affected by a signal in the form of the sound of a ticking bomb.
- A gift from an impression. If your brother likes surprises, add some emotion to him.Piloting lesson, flying in a wind tunnel, belay jump from a great height, high-speed karting, quest organization. There are many options to choose from! The main thing in them is that the impression will remain in the memory of the brother forever, and the received emotions will be associated with you.
- If you want to arrange a cool surprise for your brother, but you have only a certain amount of money at your disposal, it is better to give it creatively. Surely the phrase “raking money with a shovel” is familiar to you, so use it. This is a great way to donate money for an anniversary. You will need to buy a children's shovel and glue bills to it. When presenting a presentation, you can voice the phrase-wish: "Row the money with a shovel!". But it is better to try (except for agreements) not to congratulate with money.
The brother may decide that you were just too lazy to bother finding the right present.
- For a brother of school age, you can attach a homemade crossword puzzle to the main gift. Only one in which the main word indicates the place where the present is hidden. You will get a kind of quest for ingenuity and erudition.
- For an adult man, organizing an unexpected surprise in the form of a noisy party with friends is suitable. You can lure him to the center of events using a quest. The purpose of the venture is to bring him to the place where the event will take place with the help of message notes.
- Souvenirs. Status things that emphasize the success of the brother and promise him career growth and prosperity. You can present a branded pen, with which he will put his signature under important documents, a globe bar with mini-versions of elite alcohol inside.
Alternatively, a subscription to an informative business magazine, an elegant tie, a presentable business card holder, precious metal cufflinks.
- You can also present a bottle of high-quality alcoholic drink with an unusual label... Instead of the name of the alcohol and the indication of degrees, it will show off his photo, a funny inscription or wishes. Instead of degrees of strength of the drink, the age of the hero of the occasion. Such a bottle is definitely not pushed to the edge of the table, but will be treated with pleasure by all the guests and the owner himself.
Budget options
In case of financial difficulties, it is quite possible to get by with inexpensive gifts. The list of budget gifts popular among men includes: a flash drive, accessories for a smartphone (iPhone), a mug with a photo of the birthday boy, funny slippers, a photo keychain or magnet, a diary, souvenirs, a rosary, a puzzle.
But still, on my brother's birthday, I want to give something unusual. With a modest budget, you can make a joint gift with one of the family members.
Useful presents
Surprises are, of course, good and unexpected. But practical things are beneficial and useful. If the brother is down-to-earth, give something useful.
- Appliances. It may include a coffee machine, a coffee grinder, a kettle with a timer, an electric grill or an electric shashlik maker, a sandwich maker, a multicooker, a juicer and the like.
- Audio system. Speakers of any modification, radio and so on.
- Thermal dishes... Mug, container for keeping warm food. Heater powered by USB output for hot drinks. It is important to know details such as volume, favorite color and preferred brand.
- Stock of socks for a year... A very practical and valuable present for a brother. For solidity, it is often sold packed in a case. The packaging will come in handy in the future for storing something else. And you don't have to worry about the nice look of your brother's feet for the next 365 days.
- Soft pillow. A very useful thing for a person after a hard day and on vacation. In general, it is needed everywhere and everywhere. You choose the size yourself in the same way as the design option.
- Work tool. A real man will always find something to repair at home and in a car. Various tools are never superfluous on the farm. The brother will find where to use wrenches, an electric drill and a screwdriver.
Gifts from this area are especially useful for someone who is engaged in repairs, lives in the private sector, or often visits the garage.
- PC accessories. Removable hard drive, e-book, laptop stand with fan.
- Floor lamp. Anyone who likes to read or to decorate the interior is equally good.
- Stylish clothes or certificate in a trendy men's store... Let your brother choose a cool T-shirt or functional accessory for himself. A bag, purse, glasses are a great addition to a stylish man's look.
Edible gifts
Many men, even the most brutal looking, love desserts. And those who are a little fan of sweets will appreciate the festive design of the cake. Or better present the anti-sweet tooth with a supply of beer and snacks.
It would be nice to pack it all in an original way.
What to put in the "bouquet" under the beer - cured, dried, red, unleavened fish, different kinds of cheeses, hot red peppers, smoked sausages and everything that your imagination tells you. Packaging - the simpler, the more fashionable. Ideally - something craft and simple, such as ribbons and nets.
If you choose a traditional sweet cake, you need a good design. Beautiful design in the theme of the interests of the hero of the occasion, the original inscription. On the anniversary, this edible dessert is indispensable. This should be the culmination of the evening in honor of the hero of the day.
When choosing a gift for your brother, take into account his personal preferences. Stop on things that potentially meet his interests and will please him. So that the brother, always looking at them after the holiday, feels kindred love and warmth even at a distance from you.
