    ok so myself my dad and my brother got mam a sun holiday for march as a christmas present and i was just wondering if anyone one had a fun idea on how to give it to here on christmas morning. I know she has presents for all of us as in decent sized things to open christmas and i would like for her to have something more that a card to open if you get me. i can just do up a little coupon and put it in a card but would like something more fun and unique..any ideas people?
    thanks

    Guide book is a good idea and so is the big box. I'd put the guide book in a big box!

    You could all get her a present to hint at the holiday- one of you give her a little box of sand, one of you give her a bottle of suncream or a straw hat/ sunglasses. Your dad could then give her a jewelry box with a picture of the holiday destination in it.

    I love doing stuff like this!

    I would put it in a little box,something sort of boring and repetitive and wrap it and then put a picture of something holiday related at a few layers and wrap it a few times,like pass the parcel!!

    Get a load of boxes for crap presents, put one inside the other. The more, and the stranger, the better.
    Eventually, travel book.

    what? A dog kennel?
    A giant teddy bear...

    ..
    Oh a VHS player,
    Wait, what, a toaster,
    ok, a rubber chicken...?
    ...
    ...
    ..

    Woohoo! holiday!!

    place the tickets inside a travelbag or suitcase. Wrap it up.
