Every young man has one day in a year that relatives, friends, relatives and a girl are ready to devote to him. We are talking, of course, about the birthday. But if for the birthday man the difficulty lies only in where and with whom to celebrate it, then for the guests it will take several days, or even weeks, of thinking about choosing a gift. To really please the birthday man, it is worthwhile to approach his choice correctly.

Criterias of choice

Obviously, 18 is not the easiest age for both the young man and his entourage. Ideals and aspirations are changing, a step into adulthood is being made, the starting point of which is a birthday.

Therefore, people close to a teenager should start from certain criteria in order to correctly determine what to give him.

Gift selection criteria.

  • The financial situation of the donor. First of all, it is worth assessing how much you can spend on a birthday present, and build on this in the future. Even with a small budget, you can make the necessary, original and valuable surprise, from which the birthday person will be delighted.
  • Birthday preferences. The hero of the occasion sometimes directly says what he would like to receive for his birthday. And sometimes those around him themselves see that at the moment he needs most of all, for example, a jacket, wallet, belt or backpack. Also, preferences include unusual desires - it can be a tattoo, a parachute jump or a trip to a restaurant "in the dark." Also, almost any teenager wants to receive some kind of equipment as a gift, from a flexible keyboard or wireless mouse to a laptop.
  • Hobbies and occupation of the person gifted. A criterion that will really make it easier for guests to choose gifts and shorten the search time. In this case, special attention should be paid to the birthday boy's hobby, his attitude to animals, his passion for creativity, science or music, and sports.

Obviously, the greatest opportunities for choosing a gift are given by the birthday person's hobbies, and this is exactly what you need to build on, given your financial situation.

Gift options

Eighteen is the very moment when a boy turns into a man. At the same time, those around them have the question of what to give an adult son, nephew, godson, grandson or your soulmate. In any of these options, it is worth starting from the interests of the young man and showing creativity in order to make the greatest impression on the birthday man.

Therefore, it is recommended to understand what the young person would like to receive from you specifically from those things that you can afford.

From a girl

The girl of an eighteen-year-old boy is that person who knows much more about him than his friends or parents. Therefore, her task is to make such a gift to her beloved, so that it is both memorable and practical, and in line with his interests.

The most common gifts from a girl.

  • Gift for two. A trip to the countryside, excursions, tickets to an amusement park, theater, concert or travel.
  • Interesting quest coupon for a company of friends, for SPA procedures, in the pool, for a discount in a restaurant or shop.
  • Creative gift, starting from songs and poems and uploading dance and embroidery.
  • Personal item. Sweater, soccer jersey, shoes, wallet, belt, backpack or bag.
  • Food... A dinner just for him or a romantic dinner for two prepared by a girl. Often, girls resort to this, who remember that the way to a man's heart is through the stomach.

Tips for choosing a gift for a young man:

  • Remember that the priority in this situation is the interests of your significant other, not yours. Therefore, when choosing a gift for your beloved, think - it would be a good option for you, or still for him.
  • Chances are good that the guy with you has already mentioned more than once what he would like to receive as a gift. Therefore, do not be lazy and remember what he was talking about, and try to surprise him.
  • Think about what your boyfriend really likes but cannot afford. Such a gift will really delight the birthday boy.
  • Don't be afraid to do something new and make a memorable video, collage, poem, or portrait for your loved one.
  • An expensive gift in the form of technology will be well received in any case. It can be a car radio, tablet, Playstation, phone, laptop and other options. Here it is important to understand in advance the need for such costs - whether your young man wants to receive something from you on the holiday.

A gift from a girl for her 18th birthday is often the most expected, so this issue needs to be approached thoroughly. Do not dwell on banal options. It is better to give something that no one else will definitely give him.

And we must not forget - you should not just give a gift, but make it interesting, pleasantly surprising your soul mate.

From parents

The question of a birthday present for her son is especially acute for every mother. It can be difficult to imagine what a child wants by the age of 18, because his interests, activities and hobbies are changing. Sometimes you can count on close communication between father and son - in this case it will be easier to make a gift, because the father is aware of the child's preferences, but this is not typical of all families. Therefore, parents often make some kind of universal surprise: money, watches or toilet water. At the same time, gifts from parents always depend on financial capabilities, so they can be divided into budgetary and expensive ones.

Budget gifts from parents:

  • perfume or shower accessories;
  • inexpensive watches;
  • clothes;
  • a gift in accordance with hobbies (ball, boxing gloves, hockey stick, etc.);
  • leather goods.

Dear gifts from parents:

  • Laptop or computer;
  • tablet;
  • telephone;
  • smart watch;
  • travel;
  • certificate.

The birthday boy is expecting a valuable gift from his parents with meaning and some kind of message.

It can be either a necessary expensive gift or something sincere: an album with children's photographs of the birthday boy, a family heirloom or some kind of memorable thing such as his first toy.

From friends

Gifts from friends are usually something humorous, funny and not burdensome. Friends usually know what will definitely please the birthday boy. Moreover, if the gift requires a lot of money, friends most often throw off and jointly acquire the necessary present.

The most common gifts from friends:

  • money;
  • printed clothes;
  • hookah;
  • board games;
  • mug with a print;
  • portable speaker;
  • accessory for a personal computer, laptop or set-top box;
  • certificates for extreme sports.

Tips for choosing gifts from friends.

  • Sometimes it's easier to cooperate and buy a cool joint gift.
  • It should be remembered that a girl and her parents often give mementos. Friends tend to give something entertaining to distract and have fun.
  • The original gift will be best received (a bottle of champagne signed by all friends, a football uniform with the birthday boy's name and his favorite number, a sweatshirt with a print associated with the hero of the occasion).

A surprise to a friend implies practicality and simplicity. With joint efforts, friends usually delight not only with gifts, but also with some kind of creative program. Sometimes they come up with contests specifically for the birthday person or a quest for his own apartment.

They record a video of congratulations from all his friends, including those who have left, and are presented on his birthday.

From sister

A sister's gift depends on the degree of intimacy with her brother. The better they know each other, the more individual the gift will be. If the sister is the younger one, then it can be some kind of drawing, an old toy from a brother, or something made with your own hands. But if the sister is older and she and her brother are quite close, then completely different options are possible.

Quite often, a sister gives her brother some kind of neutral gift, but do not forget that brother and sister are one of the closest people to each other. Therefore, a gift from a sister should carry an important message - it is something intimate or really very necessary.

From grandma

Grandma is an amazing person, because she will not forget about her grandson's birthday, even if they have not spoken for a very long time. Granny's gift is usually generous She will not only give advice, say warm words, sincerely and heartily congratulate, but also give something necessary.

However, grandmothers often do not delve into what exactly they want their grandson, and entrust this choice directly to him.

The most common gifts from a grandmother:

  • money;
  • Knitten things;
  • family value;
  • any equipment (player, smart watch, portable charger).

For a grandmother, money is not so important when it comes to a gift for a grandson, so it is often a generous surprise.

Sometimes the grandmother, together with the parents of the birthday boy, give an expensive general gift - the birthday boy will definitely like such a surprise.

What can you do with your own hands?

It's no secret that the best gift is a handmade one. When a person spends a lot of time on creating a gift, carefully searches for topics and develops a plan for how to present everything, then the birthday person gets much more emotion than from an ordinary present.

At the same time, handmade gifts can be divided into several categories.

  • Memorable... A video film, a photo album, a poem, a collage, a postcard made using the scrapbooking technique, a T-shirt or sweatshirt with a print, an article in a real newspaper or on a website, etc.
  • Useful... Knitted sweater or scarf, renovation in his room.
  • Unusual... Board game about the birthday boy, an application, a wall newspaper, a mosaic based on a photograph of the birthday boy.
  • Comic... A funny postcard, a photo book with funny photographs of the birthday man, a song about a funny incident in the life of the hero of the occasion, many small gifts connected with a humorous poem that explains what thing can be useful and what for.

Any of these options involves the manifestation of ingenuity and creative thinking.

But from such a surprise, the birthday person will really have a lot of emotions, so it's worth taking the time to surprise a loved one.

Original ideas

An excellent option to save money and really surprise the hero of the occasion is to prepare an original gift. It is really worth spending time on such a present, because such surprises are usually the coolest and cause the most emotions not only for the person who receives them, but also for the guests.

At the same time, both the gift itself and its delivery can be original.

  • You can think of something individual for an adult boy. For example, to inflate helium balloons with the birthday person's face - 18 pieces. Each of the guests inhales helium and says their congratulations, and the birthday man at the end thanks for the congratulations, carrying out the same actions.
  • You can write a letter, which will describe the most interesting cases from the life of the birthday man and send it by mail, send a telegram as if from the past, or record a congratulation on an audio tape and turn on the birthday boy on the player.
  • Come up with a quest around the city for the hero of the occasion. Spread out the clues and send him in search or distribute to the friends of the birthday man pieces of paper with the words that the hero of the occasion should receive in random order. Then he must collect from them some kind of phrase that will lead him to a gift. You can also buy your favorite birthday board game and write your own rules for it exclusively for the hero of the occasion.

The original congratulation should be accompanied by the gift itself, so that the birthday person receives not only emotions, but also something valuable and desirable.

Therefore, usually at the end of a creative congratulation, a gift should be presented for which everything was started.
