18th Birthday Presents
When one turns 18, it really calls for a celebration. This is the time when one can be considered a legal adult and so what used to be prohibited can now be experienced by them. Such things would be drinking liquor and driving. Most young people who turn 18, would celebrate this day with their friends or family, whereas others would go out of town partying. Since this is a milestone for them, it should be commemorated by the giving of 18th birthday presents.
There are several presents one can give young adults who just turned 18. These can be selected based on the budget. If you are going to give them a present, see to it that it would be something that will symbolize adulthood. No more stuffed toys and kiddie presents. This is the time, where they get to live their lives the way they want. This is the time when they can make their own decisions and live up to it. It is now their time to be responsible single men and women.
Things that could be given as 18th birthday presents for a man could be personalized cufflinks. Another idea would be to give them personalized whiskey, champagne, or red wine, all of which could now be drank with matching personalized glasses and flutes. One can also go extravagant and give them gift experiences like driving a Lamborghini, a flying lesson, or a helicopter riding lesson. Take note of whatever fears the recipient might have though. Also, since this is the time when they truly become a man, one can give grooming and shaving sets, and a manly perfume. One could also give personalized calendars with pictures of hot chicks, engraved lighters, a watch to symbolize time, or a book about how to grow old with style or how to deal in college. At this time, they might also be given or permitted to drive a car so give them key rings for their keys in advance. If they have several friends or if they are a part of a certain club, organization, or sporting team, give them something where they can put their pictures in – an album or a frame. One could even create a book about these experiences if applicable.
As for young women, this would be their debut. They are now allowed to date as many guys as they want and party for as long as they want. So for their 18th birthday presents, help them feel beautiful. Some options could be a day at the spa, a makeover, a new hairstyle, or a beautiful piece of jewelry. Then have their beauty shots taken afterwards for some mementos. Another option would be to give them birthday cards, a cake, and a bouquet of their favorite flowers. Jewelry and trinket boxes, calendars with hunks in them, and books relevant to their being 18 can also be given. Finally, fulfill their dream at stardom by allowing them to be a recording artist for a day.
