A true birthday milestone â turning 80! đ
An 80th birthday is an outstanding achievement. Living eight decades on this earth. Wow! Imagine all the experiences that have shaped them into who they are today.
Do you want to celebrate them ââand show your warmth and appreciation for their 80th birthday but aren't exactly sure how? Don't worry â we've got you covered.
We have the secret to a happy and vibrant old age. Not really, but we have the secret to finding the perfect 80th birthday gift. So let's get into it.
What's the Perfect Gift For an 80th Birthday?
The big birthday dilemma always hits â what do I get them for their birthday? This birthday dilemma is even more complicated when it's a gift for someone turning 80. Like, what do they need that they don't already have?! Is there anything they'd be surprised by that they haven't already seen in the past 80 years?
It is one of the greatest feelings when you find that perfect gift. But, what is that perfect gift?
What's the Perfect Gift?
The perfect gift must meet many criteria, especially if you want to impress someone turning 80. However, ideally, the perfect 80th birthday gift must be NICE:
Novel: not yet owned by the receiver
Individualized: tailored to the receiver's likes and wants
Convenient: easy to buy, easy to post, easy to wrap
Everlasting: to last a lifetime of memories
We have something that falls into this category, plus an 80th birthday person will probably have never received one of these gifts before. What is it? Find out below.

An Eco-Friendly Gift for an 80th Birthday
Choosing an 80th birthday gift for a special person in your life is tough. You'll usually get this response when you ask what they want for their birthday:
âPlease donât buy me a gift. I donât need any more stuff!â
The truth is, they probably have everything that they could ever want and probably a little more. So, think of an eco-friendly give that says, "I'm thinking of you."
Give Experiences, Not Things
When you get to a certain age, such as turning 80, you learn to value experiences over things in life.
Whether you're planning or looking for a last-minute birthday gift, an experience gift can be easy to arrange. Not only are experiences more thoughtful, but they are rewarding for both the receiver and the giver.
What are these magical experiences over gifts that we're talking about? Well, you could start by giving them a VidDay 80th Birthday video. Then think of experiences that an 80th birthday person has always spoken about. Perhaps they have a bucket list that they are trying to complete.
Think of attending the movies, taking a painting class, making pottery, or receiving a homemade "spa day." These are priceless memories or skills that last a lifetime.
âAt eighty things do not occur; they recur.â â Alan Bennett
Give a Gift for Good
What does giving a gift for good mean? Well, it means giving back. It's a fantastic feeling to give someone a gift that keeps on giving. Whether that means giving them a donation in their name or something else, there are such great gifts from brands out there that go the extra mile and donate a portion of their proceeds to important causes: the environment, animals, children in need, mental health services, LGBTQIA+ youth, to name a few.
What is close to the birthday person's heart? Is there a cause they have been fighting for over the past 80 years? Then, find a gift that will give back to that cause. You can make a difference with your wallet by supporting companies that give back to the world and their communities.
The most meaningful gifts have one thing in common â they give back.
Plant a Tree
Honor the birthday person by having a tree planted for their 80th birthday. It's a living tribute to them and their everlasting legacy. Planting a tree for someone is a precious gift that does good for the planet by helping to create clean air, drinking water, and habitat for wildlife.
Did you know that with each video you make with VidDay, a portion of the profits goes to help plant trees? So far, we've planted over 100,000 trees, all thanks to people like you. So think about giving a VidDay 80th Birthday gift as a two-for-one â a video gift and a tree planted.
Say Happy Birthday in an 80th Birthday Video Gift
Celebrating the 80th birthday is a big deal. But unfortunately, not everyone is lucky enough to celebrate an 80th birthday, so you want to make sure that you say the right thing to the special birthday person.
By the time someone reaches the age of 80, that person has acquired so much wisdom, knowledge, and other valuable life lessons that can enrich the quality of anyone's life if imparted in the right manner.
So what can you say to them that they haven't already heard before? Speaking from the heart never fails. Tell the birthday person how much they have meant to you and how special they are. If the person celebrating their 80th birthday is a little more of a jokester, tell them an inside joke, or poke fun at them for their big 80th birthday. Lastly, you can compliment them because who doesn't love a compliment?
Here are some fun ideas to get your juices flowing:
