Family is like having friends even before you are born, and your family is a group of ‘your’ people, the people who are there throughout, people who go through every thick and thin together, people who live for each other, and people who mean the most to each other. Family is like different gems on a single necklace. Though they’re different in their way, they all belong together as one, and together is how everything turns even more beautiful. Your family is your biggest critic yet your biggest supporter. From discipline to ethics, from manners to traditions, from morals to lessons, family is what inculcates it all in you, teaches you, helps you practice it, and eventually turns you into what you are today. A home without a family is just a house, and it’s the people who live together that make it home; they make it ‘home, sweet home. The sense of relaxation, calmness, and peace is only found in abundance in your home, nowhere else. That’s because of the people who leave there with you, who can feel you. You’re your original self at home, unfiltered and unaltered. Your family never judges you and gives you all the comfort to be who you are.
Togetherness is a topic of celebration that many of us fail to celebrate, sadly. Still, the fact is, one should never leave a chance of being happy and thankful for having a family, for having people that close around, and for people who live as one till death. Send cakes online if you stay away from your family, give a surprise visit to them, or organize random parties. One should always celebrate the bond they share with their family. However, we all go through ups and downs, misunderstandings, differences of opinion, and temporary grudges, but in the end, what matters is that we are still together and that we’ll be forever.
The internet is full of ideas for a celebration. You can use online birthday cake delivery services, online flower decorations, online party planning, online gifts delivery, and much more. Though a family doesn’t need a precise reason to celebrate togetherness or a special day to celebrate each other, sometimes it’s good to have a celebration mode with your family. Fun for no reason is the most fun ever. So here are certain gift ideas that you can give to the entire family, and announce them as the ‘World’s best family’ in your way.
- Party Paradise: You can organize a surprise party for your family, get the decorations done at home, get some board and card games ready, plan singing and dancing games, order a huge cake online, get the camera ready, and ask everyone to dress up well. Throw them this fun party to celebrate the fondness they have for each other, how much their togetherness means to them, and how much love they have for each other. Order food and drinks, play, dance, sing, talk, eat, and be happy. What else does one need?
- Take the trip: Play a little game with your family related to their preference for a place for a trip. Ask them to mention hills, mountains, or plains. The majority wins. Plan a trip for all of them, get bookings done, and then announce the trip, though make sure you give them the time to pack and try to plan a trip on the weekend so that no one’s work suffers, but do surprise them with a trip to a place they’d like to visit. A trip with family is the best trip, no matter what.
- Colors of the collage: Try to find old pictures of your family members, as old as their childhood pictures, teenage pictures, grown-up pictures, and then-recent pictures, their solo pictures, pictures of them together, their couple pictures, family pictures, all and everything you can get. Get a collage made of them, get it in a frame, write a few lines about all of your family members, make them sit down in the hall, narrate those lines to them one by one, and then display the collage, it would take them down the memory lane, and they’ll love it.
- Letters of love: Write love letters to all the family members individually, and give those letters to them randomly at different times. Once they get their letters, make them sit down together and tell five great things about each other, or maybe five lines about what each of the other family members means to them. This would be a sweet, emotional time that you can get your family to spend with each other, and it would be nothing short of a subtle celebration of the love they have for each other. It would be your gift to them, the gift of time, and no other gift is more precious than that.
Family members are five different fingers of the same hand; they are different, but they belong to the same base. Though as a family you stay together, now’s the time you start living together. It would help if you never left an opportunity to spend quality time with your family and knit them back together in a fun and celebrative way.
