Fun Get-Well Gift Baskets - 5 Ideas
by Everett Maclachlan
"I hope you get well soon." This is a common catchphrase that friends, family, colleagues and loved ones tell each other when someone is in recovery from an illness, an accident or surgery. It is also repeated in tens of thousands of greeting cards to and from the same.
The phrase represents a wonderful sign of caring and concern for well-being, and hearing it is always appreciated. However, just as powerful - or even more so - is giving that special person a get-well-soon gift.
Get-well gifts come in many shapes and sizes. Of course, budgets vary, and get-well-soon gifts can be elaborate or modest. In any case, they make a big difference in the recipient's life. A well-chosen gift basket makes the time pass more quickly, and it gives the person in recovery the knowledge that they are loved and cared about.
If you are looking for fun get-well gift, here are 5 ideas to help:
1. My Favorite Movies
What is a more perfect gift than a favorite movie on DVD? Answer: a gift basket full of DVDs. When selecting movies for a My Favorite Movies gift basket, choose movies of a similar theme. For example, if the person loves Steve Martin, Chevy Chase, Dan Aykroyd-style 1980s comedies, get him or her a bunch of those. If the person loves 1990s romantic comedies, bundle some of the best from that genre into a basket. Bonus tip: add some microwave popcorn and some theatre-style candies to the basket to make it even more fun.
2. Health Foods
Ask any doctor: eating right makes up a big part of aiding a speedy recovery after an illness or surgery. The body uses the nutrients found in healthy foods to bolster the immune system in order to fight off infection, while also contributing to the building of tissues in order to heal wounds.
That is why a health foods gift basket is a great choice. (You will want to check with the recovering person's doctor or family for dietary restrictions first). Visit the health foods section of your local grocer, or go directly to a health foods store. The best choices for your basket would be non-perishable foods such as healthy crackers, nuts, and other snack foods.
3. Magazines & Puzzles
Ask anybody in recovery about their #1 enemy (apart from the sickness or healing wounds, of course) and they will tell you the same answer: boredom. And, watching lots of TV is not a great way to kill the boredom. Rather, boredom goes away when we engage our minds by doing something challenging and interesting. That is why a Magazine & Puzzles gift basket is a great choice. Just gather their favorite magazines, as well as sudoku, crossword puzzles, and word games and add to the basket.
4. Favorites Novels
If the person in recovery is an avid reader, try making or buying a Favorite Novels gift basket. Choose a theme like mystery, romance, thriller, or detective novels. Bundle in a few snacks or even a DVD of the same theme to spice it up a bit.
5. Chocolate Lovers
The gift of chocolate is a reliable way to raise the spirits of almost anyone who is in recovery. Almost everybody loves chocolate. A well-chosen gift basket is a great way to show your caring.
Fun get-well gift baskets are a great way to show you care for someone who is in recovery. Focus on their interests and put together or buy a gift basket that shows you were thinking of them.
