Hello
For Christmas I've bought my partner a little trip for the both of us to New York next spring. Rather than just hand over a piece of paper with the details on it, can you think of a creative way to make it a bit more a of an imaginative present?
Thanks.

Make him a New York breakfast, buy him a t shirt with a New York skyline and then give him a baseball cap with. I love New York or a baseball team and put a little scroll or something inside with all the details on it0

What a fantastic present.
You can get hand personalised Christmas tree decorations with kids names on them, etc. so I'm sure you could ask them to put something like "We're going to New York" and pop it onto the Christmas tree Christmas morning.

One Christmas I got my husband F1 tickets, but didn't have the actual tickets to give him on Christmas day so I had a personalised puzzle made up and hid pieces in his other small stocking filler gifts, so he had to put all the pieces together to work out his main present.
He found it fun and it added to the suspense of him working out what it was!Expecting Baby No 1 - 20/06/14 - Team Yellow!0
