Experienced with a variety of instruments: marching band in elementary school, clarinet in junior high school wind ensemble, and drums in a band from high school onward.

The “as-many-presents-as-their-age” trend you see on Instagram and other social media.

In addition to the main gift, you give a mix of large and small presents—ranging from little snacks to everyday items that are nice to receive—so that the total number matches the birthday person’s age.

To make everything feel cohesive, a key tip is to rewrap items yourself instead of leaving them in the store’s shopping bags, and to number the packages so the recipient opens the main present last.

What many people struggle with for this “as-many-presents-as-their-age” idea is choosing the smaller items besides the main gift.

If you search on Instagram or online, you’ll find lots of stylish ideas, but many of you might be thinking, “I want to include a few things with a sense of humor, too.”

So in this article, we’ll introduce humorous and fun gift ideas—from items that’ll make them chuckle to cute things that make you think, “This actually exists?!”

We’ve picked affordable options, so be sure to incorporate them into your “as-many-presents-as-their-age” plan.
