Birthday parties are an important part of celebrating each passing year. While it is common for us all to think about birthday parties for our children, they are also important for adults as well.
If you are planning a birthday party for yourself, or that special someone in your life, having a gift bag to give every attendee is a great way to provide some lasting memories. Whether your guests are children or adults, a good selection of fun things in the bag is more than a tradition, it is a wonderful way to share a special day and give everyone a thank you to take home.
One of the best and most unique gift ideas that we have found anywhere are professionally published flip books. These are fun, retro and, with a wide range of different themes and styles, you have the option to pick out a different book for each guest.
For Children
For kids of all ages, flip books make unique gift ideas because they are technology from times gone by. However, when kids see the books literally come to life and show a mini-movie, they are always amazed.
For younger children, we recommend the animal-themed books which are always popular. There are also specific birthday themed flipbooks featuring everything from robots to dragons, perfect for boys or girls. You can also have your child write a to and from message on the front of each, adding to that personal touch.
Another option is to buy a flip book kit and have each child color their own flip book at home or as part of the activities of the party.
For Adults
Adult birthdays are a great time to give away thank you bags as well. Add a flip book to each bag that is custom selected just for that guest. There are flip books with favorite movie scenes, a glimpse into stars from the past, and even some on iconic musicians such as Elvis and the Beatles.
It is hard to think of more versatile and unique gift ideas than flip books. With a wide variety of different themes suitable for children or adults, it won’t be difficult to find the perfect book for each and every guest. Keep in mind these are very low cost and are so well done they are sure to be a party favorite keepsake for years to come.
