I swear, I am not in any way affiliated with the folks over at Aerobie (although I just signed up to be notified of their new products – yeah!). I just love any of their products I’ve tried so far (and, judging from all the positive reviews
So, imagine my surprise and delight as I’m walking through the store and I see the Aerobie® Football
This is exactly like the football I got! Pretty and fun - the best of both worlds.
Well, you know I had to get it as a gift for my boyfriend who just loves footballs or any type of sports related ball. He even taught me how to throw a little bit better (we sometimes stand at opposite ends of the room with a mini-football and see how many times we can throw it back and forth without dropping it).
Let’s just say it’s a hit. I love it. He loves it. His dad loves it. His mom will probably love it too, just not for the same reasons! She’ll love the fact that we prefer to play with it outdoors (it’s a nine inch football and is more fun to throw distances) so we won’t be likely to break anything by playing in the house. This was $12 well spent because it will offer us hours of fun and variety. Another winner by Aerobie
, ladies and gentlemen.Enough about us loving it – who is this a good gift for? Especially with summer coming this becomes a really versatile gift. You want to give this to someone who is active or loves to play outside, young or old, male or female. Like your friends who have you over for dinner and have the badminton
set up or pull out the Frisbee to play with.It’s inexpensive so you could give it as a host/hostess gift for any of the invites to the summer parties, BBQs, pool parties, beach and lake getaways. You could bring a bottle of wine like everyone else or bring something that is fun and will outlast the evening. It also makes a great birthday gift for anyone who loves to play (child or adult) because , although it is a simple present, it is a really fun one.
Does your boyfriend or spouse love football? Give him one and go out and play with him! This doubles the gift giving because he gets the joy of playing football with the one that he loves. Even if you don’t particularly like football, you might actually even enjoy playing with this one and you will make him a very happy man. It’s really light so it is a breeze to take it to the park to have some fun!
This football is the type that lots of people will enjoy, regardless of age or gender, because it flies and spirals so easily, it makes the most inept look and feel like a pro (namely me!). It is soft and easy to catch so the kids aren’t going to get hurt playing with adults or older children, unless, of course, you decide to play tackle football. It basically levels the playing field a lot so that everyone has fun, no special skills required. So, that means that it would be a great gift for a child or a family that plays a lot.
The Aerobie® Football
would be a great thank you gift for active and playful people as well. Forgot to bring a host/hostess gift? No problem – give them this after the fact as a thank you. This works especially well if you have new friends in your life that you don’t know all that well yet but are finding things out about them as you go along. Thank you gifts are a great way to express that you not only wish to thank someone, but it also shows that you were paying attention to them while you were spending time together (by giving them something that you think they will like) and that you were thinking of them after the fact. This is what helps make gifts personal!If we have some nice weather this weekend I’ll try to get some video of people playing with the football
so that you can see how wonderful it is.
Happy gifting!
