What to give dad for 55 years?
The anniversary of a loved one is always not only a joyful, but also somewhat troublesome event, primarily due to the need to choose a suitable gift. I would like the present to be special - useful, memorable, sincere.
Original gifts from daughter and son
If you want to present your father with an original and memorable gift, then consider creating a photo book. Naturally, your dad will become its main character. Print photos from different years, come up with an original story, accompany the photo with captions. The finished and typeset book should be sent to print.
The plot can be your family's story or a funny adventure that once happened to your dad. You can make a photo book in the form of a story of one day of your dad, or confess your love to him on every page of the book.
By the way, declarations of love and words of gratitude are another gift idea. Write wishes, confessions and words of gratitude on small pieces of beautiful paper and put them in a beautiful box or box.
An unusual congratulation will be self-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 fun quest. Come up with a backstory, prepare tasks and clue cards. By the way, such gift giving can be included in the holiday program - create the necessary entourage, ask some guests to act together with you as the leaders of the quest.
Every man is a protector and warrior.Moreover, your father, who all your life protected you from hardships and hardships, took upon himself the solution of the most difficult issues. Remind him of this, thank and present a set of knives or an engraved sword... It will turn out symbolic and unusual. And men who are indifferent to weapons, perhaps, do not exist.
Personalized cake, sweets with wishes, compositions of sweets - a great gift, but treats 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 liked as a child, you can try to reproduce it. Most likely, it will be a homemade dish that is not easy to find on sale (or its taste will be significantly inferior to homemade one). Find a master or try to master the recipe yourself - your father will be especially pleased.
An original and tasty gift will be exotic fruits in a box. It's easy to order them today - they are delivered fresh from warm countries, in beautiful packaging. Such a gift can be given as a keepsake of a trip once made or with a wish to travel more. If the birthday person is not only a dad, but also a grandfather, then grandchildren can and should be involved in the preparation of gifts. Let the children do it themselves 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 useful gifts can you give?
Among the most popular useful gifts are - household appliances and electronics. If you don't know what exactly your dad needs, donate a certificate to one of these stores. A great option is a gift for health and personal care, for example, certificate for a massage course... A massage chair will be an unusual and useful present. If it seems too expensive or massive, take a closer look. to the foot massager.
Continuing the topic of health care, we can recommend vouchers to the sanatorium, subscriptions to fitness classes, to the pool. For home improvement, you can donate orthopedic mattresses and pillow, salt lamp and humidifier.
You should not give items associated primarily with illness, rather than health. These include medicines, first-aid kits, devices for measuring pressure, blood sugar levels. Even if you know that a parent needs them, it is better to buy them just like that, and not for a birthday.
A set of tools, dishes, furniture - all these gifts can be pleasant and long-awaited, if dad dreamed of them exactly. You can also arrange and pay apartment or summer cottage renovation. By the way, if you have chosen this particular option, Consider replacing the tub with a shower stall. With age, it will be more difficult for dad to get into the bathtub, stepping over the side. The booth is more convenient in this regard.
If funds allow, choose a model with hydromassage, sauna function.
Valuable gifts for the anniversary
Among the valuable gifts are tourist vouchers or vouchers to a sanatorium. For most of his life, the father works to provide for his family, to improve his life. A round date is a great reason to thank him for this and give him 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 go far and for a long time, the best choice is a ticket to a sanatorium not far from his hometown. Such a person can also be presented with a weekend tour - 2-3 weekends saturated with emotions and new knowledge will help cheer up and relax, but do 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 place. If the father already has one, it may be time make repairs, replace the fence, build courtyard buildings. As a rule, a country house and a summer residence require considerable financial investments, there is always work there.
A car can become a valuable and pleasant gift. Of course, if the dad has the right and the desire to drive a car. Alternatively, upgrade the existing transport to a more modern model. You can think not only of a personal car, but also of a motor boat, snowmobile, etc. It is only important to take into account the interests of your father. Any avid fisherman or just a person 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 widescreen TV. In addition, satellite TV and a comfortable rocking chair can be purchased. The gift will turn out to be symbolic and convenient - there is everything you need for a pleasant pastime.
Certificate for spa treatments or bath programs - another worthy gift for the head of the family for an anniversary. Jewelry - it is a solid and memorable gift. Men usually choose chains, bracelets, crosses (if your dad is Orthodox and wears a cross). You can also buy collectible coins, silverware.
These things can become a family heirloom in the future, in addition, they become more valuable over time.
Budget options
Household appliances are a gift that may be more expensive or affordable, but always needed. Washing machine, microwave oven, multicooker, electric shashlik maker - gifts that are necessary in everyday life and worthy of the anniversary. A computer, tablet or new phone will also delight a man. Not everyone of a respectable age is able to understand modern gadgets, so spend some time after the holiday for training and practice. Otherwise, the gift will be useless.
If your father is a summer resident, feel free to give him barbecues and barbecues, garden swings, tool kits, country lamps and decorative figures. The angler will be delighted with the new spinning rod and other accessories for his hobby. The motorist will be pleased to receive car covers, refrigerator bag, video recorder, car radio.
According to etiquette, it is not customary to give personal belongings and clothes for the anniversary. However, the rule applies only to strangers. It is quite possible for dad to give a certificate for a suit shop or just men's clothing. Large purchases for the season, for example, a sheepskin coat or a branded jacket, will also delight and warm (literally and figuratively) the hero of the day.
A set of bath towels, cozy slippers and a fluffy bathrobe - few men think they need these things so badly. However, barely starting to use, they understand how convenient and pleasant it is. Give the parent extra home comforts.
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 mini bar stocked with expensive drinks.
Budget options include a group of gifts made with oneself. It so happens that the birthday person does not have the financial ability to organize a magnificent celebration, but the 55th anniversary is an event that cannot be ignored.
Arrange a surprise for dad - organize and pay for the holiday, invite old friends and relatives. Let dad think that a modest family celebration is planned, and instead he will receive a solemn event with holiday 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 meal, he may dress simpler and then feel uncomfortable at the big party.
