How to give a gift for the New Year in an original way?
Choosing and wrapping a gift for any holiday is a familiar and interesting business. However, we do not always know how to hand over a present correctly, and therefore even an expensive thing may seem mundane to the addressee. Let's look at what are the nuances of the original gift giving for the New Year.
How can you give it to children?
No matter what anyone says, there is no single instruction for the original presentation of gifts. And it can be in different situations, the age group of the person and his sense of humor. Therefore, the approach to one and the same gift is very diverse. For example, it could be a developed "ritual" or improvisation.
If this is a present for a small child, you can add a note of magic to the gift. For example, you can hang Christmas socks over the fireplace or in other places in the living room so that a kind wizard will fill them with funny or useful gifts on New Year's Eve. Children will be carried away by this idea, it has every chance of turning into an annual ritual. And even as adults, they will pass on this tradition to their children.
If the child believes in miracles, you can ask the neighbors to put a gift under the door and call. Thus, it turns out that Santa Claus came in, but could not stay, because he has a lot of work, and all the children in the world are waiting for gifts. If parents have the opportunity, you can order Santa Claus at home, who will congratulate and give the baby a gift.
Children love the surprises that can be found during a festive event by inviting the child's friends to it. You can come up with a small game with tasks and prizes.When playing through the game, you can increase interest with symbolic gifts, and leave the main prize as a prize.
Assignments and prizes can be hidden in some areas of the living room, for example, in balloons, Christmas socks, Christmas tree decorations.
Small things can be wrapped in gold foil and hung on the tree instead of toys. Moreover, if there are several children in the family, it is advisable to sign which present is intended for whom. To make the child find him faster, you can play with a riddle or a note of the plan "I am your gift, find me." In this case, the note can be put in a regular envelope, signed and thrown into the mailbox. You can just give your child an envelope with a note.
How to surprise adults?
Nothing will be remembered in the celebration of the New Year's celebration like a little wizard giving gifts to adults. Agree, this will give many of us a sea of positive emotions. To do this, you can dress up a child in Santa Claus or a magic elf, a character in a winter fairy tale. A girl can become a Snow Maiden or a little fairy who brings gifts to obedient adults.
A situation in which a child asks if adults have behaved well throughout the year has a positive message. Without knowing it, they will think about their behavior, perhaps remember some moments of their childhood. And if you add the entourage in the form of a "list of obedient boys and girls", it will completely allow you to plunge into the festive atmosphere in which you can play along with the children, which will strengthen their acting skills.
If adults are far from this, they will have to look for other options for presenting a New Year's gift. Depending on this, the method of presenting the gift will also change. For example, a corporate party with colleagues will be more interesting if you take the initiative to conduct it.
You can come up with a whole program with a rally, perform various forfeits, or stop at a small comic presentation in verse.
Festive congratulations with the presentation of the presentation can be beaten with contests for each guest. This will allow you to creatively distribute gifts to everyone, moreover, the method of presentation will be different from others. For example, someone can be asked to improvise a quatrain about a New Year's holiday, another guest can be asked to read New Year's rap. The third friend will sing a hit song, and the fourth will dance to it, introducing himself as an advanced Santa Claus.
Interesting ideas
There can be a lot of options. You can congratulate your friends in an original way by arranging a spontaneous performance in poetic form. You can involve several people in the presentation by coming up with a corporate or friendly scene on a comic topic. To do this, you can write a small script in advance with the presentation of gifts, for example, about a fun-fly, a fox-beauty.
Drawings are also encouraged. However, they should be appropriate, because no holiday in which rough and stressful jokes are allowed will leave good memories in your memory. Write a letter from childhood informing about the time capsule. Arrange a quest with the whole company in search of a capsule (boxes with gifts for guests, friends or family members).
A few tasks are enough, but believe me: they will captivate everyone, and the gifts themselves will be remembered for a long time, even if they are purely symbolic.
For fun, don't wait for your guests to get tired. It is necessary to hold such games at the beginning of the festive event. To prevent the guests from getting bored, you can beat the presentation of gifts with a quest with notes in the form of quatrains of Nostradamus. Solving funny puzzles will especially appeal to those who adore it.
For greater immersion in the desired atmosphere, you can add entourage in the form of living room decoration elements.
If you want to creatively give a present to your teenage relative, consider their interests. For example, you can subscribe in advance to his idol and ask the star to say a few words to the addressee (or write in the feed).Of course, not all stars respond to fans' requests, but there are also those who willingly communicate with their subscribers. Shoot a cool video congratulation covering your favorite teen song. Believe me, today's youth will react to this better than traditional presentations.
You can play a friend with an unusual lottery, saying that the person has won untold wealth and a subscription to attend a festive event in a friendly circle. It is necessary to prepare in advance the props in the form of a huge check, handing it to the addressee along with your gift.
By the way, a small gift can be arranged at the location of the seal of the huge check. Show your imagination by signing it (for example, with funny poems or comic congratulations).
What to consider?
Handing out gifts for the New Year creatively does not mean handing them over with the words "this is for you." Neither pranks nor jokes will be understood by those who are far from this. But if you want the gift to turn out to be special, it is better to give it yourself, which is especially important for loved ones and loved ones. You should not pass it on to others, because the more worries and thoughts you put in, the more interesting the congratulation will be.
You should not use ready-made hackneyed templates: they are often boring and of the same type. Be individual, create something of your own... Pay attention to packaging: it can be creative, which allows you to significantly increase the status of the simplest thing. Children and connoisseurs of originality can present a gift in a box covered with tiny LED flashlights. It will be especially magical to look such a present against the background of others if you dim the light at the time of presentation.
If a scenario with a search for gifts is taken as the basis for donating, do not write too many notes with tips and tasks: guests will quickly get tired of this. The game is remembered when it is short. To increase interest in the search, cut the sheet with the map of the conditional location of the treasure into several pieces or puzzles and hide the fragments in a specific room.
During the invitation process, ask guests to remember to bring a positive mood with them.
Sometimes the idea of giving is suggested by the gift itself. For example, an unusual pillow in the form of a man's shoulder and hand can be presented to a loved one with the words: "This thing will ease your sleep while I am not around." New Year's holiday gives a lot of ideas for implementation. You can:
- hand over surprise gifts by arranging a funny lottery;
- arrange themed team games, where gifts will be prizes for everyone;
- organize a New Year's auction, in which guests' jokes will be the price for gifts;
- send letters to guests with the content "your gift is with me, you see yourself well and come to this address at such and such a time."
The appropriateness of this or that scenario will depend on how the person for whom the present is intended to relate to it. If your friend or colleague is "beech", no matter how cool and interesting you are thinking of congratulating him, it will not always work out. As far as acquaintances are concerned, in their relation “unusual” means rather the packaging of a symbolic presentation, rather than any words or actions. The rally is inappropriate in this case.
