The charm of a birthday lies in the notion that it's entirely one's own—though the realist would say that it's shared with ten million other people. Use your imagination for fun ways to give a birthday gift as singular as the recipient. |

ideas
(excerpted
from
Present
Perfect) See also: birthstones, birth month flowers Give as many gifts as the birthday person is old. For example, a dozen roses to a 12-year-old girl from her father would make a young lady feel very special on her twelfth birthday. Other ideas include 16 movie tickets, a three-week (21-day) European trip, 30 car wash certificates, 40 pints of Ben & Jerry's ice cream, a strand of 50 pearls, or 5 dozen (60) golf balls, fishing lures, or tulip bulbs. Here is a twist on the surprise birthday party. Ask the celebratee to reserve a block of time (an evening, a weekend, a Saturday morning) on or around his or her birthday. Then plan a party or outing and let the guest of honor know how to dress for the occasion. If you are the birthday person's employer, a half or full day off would make a great birthday present. Send a birthday card every day during the month of his birthday, or send as many cards as he is old on his birthday. For 80-plus birthdays, you can request a card from the President of the United States. Send your request four to six weeks in advance to Greetings Office, The White House, Washington, DC 20500. Include the recipient's full name, address, and date and year of birth.
