Surprise your secret sister with gifts that tickle her funny bone.
A secret sister program allows groups to buy gifts for one another, anonymously. A well-written card can lift her spirits, but a funny gift will make her giggle. Inject some humor into her day by giving her laugh-aloud presents. Lighthearted gifts can also lift her spirits during times of sadness or grief. Does this Spark an idea?
Funny Stationery
Surprise her with a set of humorous postcards she can send to her friends. Popular choices feature humorous pets, like dogs wearing costumes or cats performing antics. A set of notepaper and envelopes featuring funny characters is a nice gift. Choose notepaper that has smiley faces watermarked on each page. Yellow is a particularly cheerful color.
Give a cube of sticky notes that have jokes printed on them. She will laugh every time she uses them.
Novelty pens are practical and funny. Give her a lipstick pen that has a removable cap. The lipstick portion is actually the cap that hides the ink pen. Choose a lipstick with a red cap. Match-shaped pencils look like matchsticks with red eraser tips.
Joke Calendars
Paper desktop calendars are ideal for using at home or at the office. For a secret sister, give her a calendar that is both inspirational and humorous. Subjects like "funny things kids say" are suitable for women who are moms. Select a perpetual calendar that never expires. Wall calendars showing children dressed up like grown ups are comical, too. A cheerful, wooden desk calendar in the shape of an apple is a good gift for a teacher or apple lover. For a funny touch, choose an apple with a cartoon worm sticking out of it. The date, day and month are block letters displayed on top of the apple. Have her apple personalized by putting her name on the front.
Vintage Cartoons
Give her a vintage cartoon collection on DVD. Old black-and-white cartoons featuring Betty Boop and Popeye are clean, classic choices. Bugs Bunny, Woody Woodpecker and Porky Pig are cartoon films she can enjoy with her whole family. Alternatively, give a DVD of funny videos from weddings or sporting events. Add some popcorn and bottled sodas to a large wicker basket. This will make your gift perfect for a comedy night at home. Top it off with a bow covered with smiley faces.
