10 experiences to give instead of gifts
Chances are, you’re still trying to find that perfect gift for your loved ones. If you feel like you’ve exhausted your store-bought options, give them an experience that you both can remember forever. Curate a beautiful memory.
1. Rent a car and go on a day trip.
Why not visit a nearby national park or take a scenic road? Bring some snacks and music, and you’re set.
2. host a sleepover.
Bring back an old classic with a sleepover hosted at your place. Bonus: Wake up late and make a stay-at-home brunch.
3. Plan a happy hour progressive.
Pick your top 3 bars and organize a happy hour progressive - drinks on you.
4. Try an escape room.
Get your neurons working and set up an escape room trip.
6. Go on a beach day.
If you’re lucky enough to live near a beach, book a day and set up a picnic at the beach. If you live in a cold place, make it an indoor s’mores evening.
8. Create a spa day at home.
Draw a bath, play some spa music, light a candle, and pour them a glass of wine. Set a space for them to relax.
9. Curate a music playlist.
Make a Spotify playlist for them - it’s the new mixtape. Invite them over and debut the playlist in person.
10. Spoken word.
And finally, if you’re feeling inspired, write them words from the heart and give them a spoken word performance.
