Getting a gift forsomeone whose likes and dislikes you don't know very well can beincredibly difficult. Sure, you could always fall back on the oldstandard of gift cards or cash in an envelope, but what if you wantto give something with more meaning? I had this dilemmamyself not too long ago. It was just days before my cousin's birthdayparty, and my sister and I hadn't gotten him anything yet. We hadvery little time to find a great present, and didn't know a whole lotabout what kind of things he preferred. Still, as he was our cousin,we wanted to make sure we got him something that would be bothmeaningful and personal. We started to scour the internet for greatideas, and it wasn't long before we located stuffed animals. Wequickly realized that a plush octopus could make a unique andmeaningful gift. One thing we did know about our cousin was that hewas a handy guy, constantly fixing and constructing things around hishome. All of that "handiness," meant that his wife wouldswear that he had eight arms (pardon the pun) with which to fixthings before she even knew that they were broken. While searchingfor a suitable stuffed octopus, we found that some of them were"posable." My sister was confused on what made these toysdifferent from a regular stuffed animal. I proceeded to explain thedifference. Posable stuffedanimals are bendable. You can take their arms or legs and move theminto any position you desire. For example, if you have a stuffedmonkey, you could bend his arms so that he hung off your neck withoutyou having to hold him. They are as fluffy and soft as regular plushtoys, with the added bonus of maneuverability. Traditional,non-posable stuffed animals on the other hand don't have this sameflexibility. The position they are in is the one you are stuck with.Still soft and fluffy, these toys are great for collecting ordecorating, and are the ones most likely to end up in a gift basket.They could hold flowers or a box of chocolates if already positionedin a stance with which to do so, and because they're not bendablethey are sturdier for that kind of gift holding. For the purpose ofour cousin's birthday, a posable octopus had more meaning than atraditional one. Its flexibility better mirrored his busy maneuversaround the house! Keep this example in mind when you want to getsomething more personal than cash or gift cards. Should your stuffedanimal gift be posable, or traditional? Think carefully over whatgives more meaning to the gift. Article Tags: More Meaning, Stuffed Animals
