That's it, the big countdown has begun. You know, the end of the year holidays are not only for children. It's also the right moment to get together with your family, share love...and cassoulet. It's the perfect time to delight the people who really matter to us. This kind of attention requires inventiveness because you have to choose a gift that makes sense, which is not always easy. A little help would not be too much in the quest for the perfect item. We have selected for you eight gift ideas that will undoubtedly inspire you no matter who the recipient of the attention is.
1- An all-expenses paid stay or trip.
Un séjour tout frais payé dans un lieu relaxant en pleine nature ou si vous êtes plus aventuriers, un petit trip dans les régions du nord Bénin serait un excellent moyen de passer du temps en famille, entre amis ou même avec l’homme ou la femme que vous aimez.
2- A day at a beauty salon.
Offering a beauty salon day to a woman is the best way to delight her heart and make her happy. Whether she's your mother, your sister, your best friend or the woman in your life, she'll love being pampered from head to toe, for a whole day and without spending a cent. You could even go with her!
3- A high tech wristwatch, why not?
A watch, it is the classic gift that always pleases when it is chosen with attention to the preferences of the person to be offered. If he or she loves technology, giving a high-tech watch would be a fabulous surprise.
4- Made in Benin accessories, it's time to consume locally.
Accessories made in Benin, are the right compromise to make chic gifts without breaking the bank. We have leather goods manufacturers, chocolate makers, designers, many promoters of Beninese brands regardless of the field that offer us quality at lower cost. Make your choice!
5- An African doll for little girls.
Your little girl may have a habit of playing with your phone, with your TV remote, with any inappropriate object she can get her hands on, and this can become a long-term concern. Now that it's Christmas, get her a doll. But not just any doll. More and more African dolls are being marketed. They are representative and allow the child to identify herself and find herself beautiful without having a "frizzy hair" or "black skin" complex.
6- A customized jewel.
Your friend, mother, wife or sister is a flirt and loves jewelry? Offer her personalized jewelry. Engrave her name on it, or yours. And since she loves jewelry, a jewelry box would be very useful to store them.
7- A customized jersey.
Always in the idea of the customized gift, we suggest you to offer to your friends and relatives of male sex soccer or basketball jerseys with their name/sobriquet on the back. The choice of the jersey should obviously be based on their favorite clubs. Such attention will surely fill them with pride and gratitude towards you. A polo shirt or a towel with their name embossed on it would also do very well.
8- Insurance: an universal gift!
We could not finish this list without talking about the famous insurance contract. It is THE UNIVERSAL GIFT BY EXCELLENCE, the most useful one, the one that time will not alter, that will provoke the gratitude for life of the person(s) to whom you will have offered it. L'Africaine Vie provides a wide range of products and services that are sure to please the people you love. From Serenity Retirement to Serenity Education, be CERTAIN that subscribing to an insurance contract at AA VIE is the best gift idea you could have...and we'll give it to you for free.
