without comments

Are you or any of your loved ones turning 40? No, 40 isn’t old anymore. In fact it is one great reason to celebrate as they say life starts at 40. And it is definitely party time – which means gift giving time too. Let us look at some great ideas for 40th birthday gifts that would be loved by the birthday boy or girl.

Just like my 30th back yonder seems like an age ago but also just like yesterday. I must be getting old as I am full of contradictions these days! Someone gave me a booklet called “40 something vouchers” which they found online with coupons for various necessities for a forty year old. Things like an ultimate makeup removal kit, free copy of the best seller “The G-Spot”, free pair of glasses and other various tit-bits to assist getting through your 40’s! Like I need that; maybe the glasses and the makeup thingy

My kids rewrapped the Dr Seuss book from my 30th birthday bash and wrote in the cover “Are you old yet?” I received trivia games, CDs from the 70s, 40th birthday badges and a T-shirt with “Made in the Seventies” plastered across it!

The 40th birthday is the time to reflect back on life, look forward to the future and even worry a bit about getting old ! But despite whatever thoughts might enter the mind of the birthday boy or girl, its also time to put all of them aside and party hard ! You can always start thinking and worrying later – when you are 50, say !

When you celebrate your 40th birthday with friends and family, make sure you have your very own personalized beer and wine bottle labels. And choose some great light-up beer mugs or shot glasses with the message ‘turning 40’ to serve the alcohol. Whether the celebrations are on your behalf or on behalf of a loved one turning 40, you need to make the occasion a memorable one. Don’t hesitate to use funky 40th birthday accessories – have original props and bright decorations. Remember you only turn 40 once ! So make sure to have as much fun as possible.

With the internet by your side, getting amazing 40th birthday gifts and party accessories is a breeze. You just need to do a quick Google search and visit the sites listed. Since celebrating a 40th birthday is a big event it is best to plan early. Get online, choose your items, make the purchase, finalize the payment and wait for your gifts to arrive at your doorstep. Keep in mind the theme of the party that you are planning to host or attend. Also keep the guest list in mind if you are ordering alcohol.  Online shopping is the best way to shop for 40th birthday gifts and party items. It is hassle free and saves you a lot of time and energy.!

I received 2 charm mugs for my 40th birthday. The one in my office was given by colleagues and has a silver heart engraved with a simple “40”. The other at home says “I’m not 40 but 21 with 19 Years Experience”! And no prizes for guessing which one I like better!
