Fun-Filled Gift Ideas

Gifts of humor or those that allow the recipient to have fun can be a joy to give. It doesn't always have to be a gag gift on a birthday milestone or for a retirement party. Light hearted gifts can be given on virtually any occasion and at any time of the year. So if you know someone who loves to have fun or who could use a good laugh, try one of these fun-filled gift ideas: Affirmation Ball: Did the Magic 8 Ball always make you feel like chopped liver? Well, this gift puts a unique spin on the traditional ball from hell - it's the Affirmation Ball and it has only nice things to say about you. It offers tons of support and encouragement when others let you down. If you're feeling less than perfect, shake it up to get quick reassurance with sayings like: you look marvelous, you're a winner, people love you, at least I love you and have you lost weight. It's an awesome gift to give friends and family. Find them online at Redenvelope.com. Moon Shoes: Kids can fly high into the air with a pair of space-like moon shoes. Referred to as trampolines for the feet, they have an anti-gravity effect and help build coordination. They're great for bouncing, leaping and having fun. The shoes provide safe and healthy exercise for kids of all ages. Funny Apron: An apron featuring a humorous quote or image is a great gift for an avid cook or backyard BBQ griller. Some display the torsos of women in bikinis and male bodybuilders - making the cook appear half naked! Others have funny sayings like Does Not Cook Well with Others and Danger, Dad Grilling on Barbecue. Shy away from the cheaper vinyl transfer aprons - make sure you buy one that is screen printed. Electronic Mad Libs: Here's a handheld version of the old paper Mad Libs that we all played when we were kids. It's educational, as well as entertaining! Hours and hours of fill in the blank fun. Joke Book: For the person that always seems to forget the punch line or the five second comeback rule, why not give them a book filled cover to cover with jokes, one liners, funny stories and other tomfoolery on every subject imaginable? Go to you local bookstore or Amazon.com for a huge selection. Whatever Clock: For once, time doesn't matter. We all know people who are constantly running late and really don't give a hoot. Well, this is the timepiece for them. The clock boasts the word Whatever and it gives the appearance that all of the numbers have fallen to the lower corner. A fun, fun gift to give someone who can't seem to keep track of time. Now they can really say Whatever!
