Eid Al-Fitr is a great holiday! Work is off, as usually the public holiday stretches to four or five days. Special food is offered everywhere, from your home to the supermarket and the countless restaurants in Dubai. Also, you receive gifts and meet with many friends and relatives. However, apart from receiving presents, you also need to give gifts. To make things a bit easier for your, we have decided to create a short list with ideas for Eid gift for family. But what is different about it is that it does not just feature traditional presents, but also some modern ones.
Parents and Grandparents
A very common Eid gift for family, parents and grandparents, is a religious book, for example. They will definitely appreciate them, if they are an intellectual type of family. A floral present, such as rare Bonsai tree or indoor plant, will make your mum or grandmother feel loved. For your dad or granddad, you can get an art canvas. An interesting idea would be to bake a dessert for your parents and grandparents and, hopefully, impress them with your skills.
If you are looking for something more modern, you can get them an eBook reader and download a collection of nice electronic books on it. Another good option is an electronic photo frame. Add your favourite pictures, new and old, and allow your parents and grandparents to travel in their memories in a brand new way.
Siblings
Surprise your siblings with a gift basket for Eid. They come in many varieties and at different prices. In addition, they follow the tradition of feasting on sweets. Your sister or sisters will not be disappointed if you get them some jewelry items. For your brother or brothers, you can buy an Islamic movie. This idea is modern and it can be also enjoyed by the entire family. But if you are not sure what they would want or like, you can make the most of the today’s gift cards trend. They cover a lot of services and products and the price options are very flexible.
Spouse
Purchase some clothing for your spouse, traditional or not, and refresh his or her wardrobe. If you can afford it, you can also go for a smart electronic gadget like a tablet or a smartphone.
Children
Among the most traditional Eid gifts for kids are sweets and money. Nevertheless, you can also surprise them with educational or storybooks. Children love games so you cannot go wrong with a religious game or a modern-day game console.
For the family in general
Those of you, who want to surprise all of their family at once, can go together to a Muslim restaurant and enjoy traditional dishes. That will also allow you spend more time with one another and catch up. In addition, organize a backyard laid-back day filled with games and family entertainment. Make the atmosphere feel like an actual celebration! That will remain in their memory for year to come!
