A close person is celebrating their name day or birthday. What can you give them without leaving home?
The coronavirus epidemic is causing forced social isolation. We don't meet with friends or family outside the home, and yet our loved ones also celebrate name days, birthdays, or important anniversaries during this time. We currently have no way to personally hand them an occasional gift. However, there are solutions that allow you to give your loved ones a nice surprise without leaving home.
Shopping malls closed until further notice make it seem as though we are doomed to buy gifts online. We have the option of ordering a chosen, physical gift via the Internet with home delivery. However, in the current unusual situation, it is worth looking for a gift that will allow a person close to us, while staying at home in quarantine, to gain valuable skills, valuable knowledge, or simply relax. Such an opportunity is provided by a gift in the form of a course, online workshop, or another form delivered as a voucher, which we can send electronically.
According to a survey by the Prezentmarzeń service, one in three Poles definitely prefers buying gifts to receiving them, because it allows them to make another person happy. Giving a gift that can evoke positive emotions takes on particular significance now, when we are exposed to severe stress because of the pandemic, and more and more people are experiencing a decline in mood. Here are a few ideas that may inspire you to surprise a loved one from a distance, which they will be able to use right away.
Culture as a gift
Culture as a gift
For someone who loves books but has so far still had too little time to read or listen to them, you can give a voucher, for example, for unlimited access to ebooks and audiobooks. Ebooks and audiobooks are a convenient form of reading that is increasingly replacing traditional books. Among the available titles, you can find works by foreign and Polish authors. The ebook and audiobook library includes many categories, from romance, crime fiction, and non-fiction through guides and literature for children and young adults, all the way to poetry and drama. Everyone will find suitable reading for themselves. Ebooks and audiobooks provide easy access to favorite books on an e-reader, smartphone, tablet, and computer.
Many cinemas also offer vouchers to use once they reopen.

The best gifts without leaving home
While staying at home, many people tend to snack and reach for various, not always healthy treats. Unfortunately, combined with limited movement and currently closed fitness clubs, gyms, or swimming pools, this can result in a few extra pounds after quarantine ends. To avoid such a situation, it is worth balancing your diet well. This can be done in the form of an online consultation, which for people who care about their fitness and appearance can be an interesting and practical gift.
An online dietary consultation, depending on the chosen package, may include a diet plan, training plan, or diet and training plan. The plan is prepared based on a detailed questionnaire completed by the recipient. The diet is created based on detailed information about health status, current blood test results, as well as the recipient's expectations, goals, and dietary preferences indicated in the questionnaire. Based on this data, the specialist prepares a diet for a specified period, for example 8 weeks. In the case of training, any injuries, training experience, and photos of the recipient's figure attached to the questionnaire are also taken into account. The specialist will prepare the training, and the recipient will receive it in written form along with links to videos showing the individual exercises. About 2 months after starting the diet or training plan, the participant contacts the specialist again to assess the results achieved.
Time for a new language
Time for a new language
It is now worth using the time spent at home to develop interests and passions for which we have always lacked time. It is also a good moment to learn something new - such as a foreign language. By choosing an educational gift, namely learning a foreign language, the recipient receives from us access to a selected e-learning platform with educational materials.
Online language courses are a comfortable and effective form of learning. They usually combine elements of education and fun, so they can be good entertainment, and learning becomes more interesting and enjoyable. The advantage of online courses is the ability to complete subsequent lessons at your own pace, place, and time. The only requirement for completing the course is access to the Internet.

A gift in the form of an online soap-making workshop will be appreciated by every fan of natural cosmetics. Thanks to such workshops, the recipient will learn how to make soap at home and how to choose the right ingredients to achieve the desired properties of the cosmetic. Making soap at home can turn out to be a great way to begin an adventure with making natural cosmetics on your own. As part of the workshop, the recipient will receive access to a specially prepared platform. It contains detailed instructional videos and materials with all the necessary tips.
The choice of online activities that can serve as inspiration for gifts for loved ones during the ongoing pandemic is quite large. Knowing the tastes and interests of a chosen person, we can give them a nice surprise for a name day, birthday, or no occasion at all, without leaving home. - says Grzegorz Rożalski from the Prezentmarzeń service.
