It’s your first time going to your in-laws’ house to celebrate the New Year. What gifts should you prepare for your in-laws’ relatives?

Personal opinion: The practicality of gifts can be put aside, and the focus should be on face-saving.

Of course, this is mainly for general situations. If it is the kind of family where the in-laws are particularly nice and you won’t feel anything if you go empty-handed, I guess we don’t need to discuss this issue. Bar.

There is a misunderstanding that some girls may feel that when they go to their husband's house for the first time, they are still guests, so they don't need to prepare any gifts. But in fact, this idea is wrong. Now that you have gone to your in-laws' house, whether you are married or not, you need to pay attention to it.

For example, when my sister (aunt’s daughter) was in a relationship before, she and her boyfriend were not married yet, so it was equivalent to meeting the boyfriend’s parents, so she simply bought some fruit. Just went.

As a result, the husband’s parents gave her a thick red envelope when she went out. Although this shows that my future husband's family approves of me, it also highlights my sister's carelessness on the other hand.

Comparing the importance of the two parties, you will feel that the girl does not know etiquette, and it may even affect the impression of her husband's family on her (my aunt and my mother said so). So I personally feel that if you are not getting married and are just meeting your parents, you need to prepare gifts well to leave a good impression. If you are already married, since you are your own family, there is no need to search, and there should be a sense of ceremony for the first time.

Therefore, the following gift list is for your reference:

(1) Grandparents

Generally speaking, there is always one of them when it comes to wine and tea. Grandpa liked it. Therefore, it is a good choice for grandpa’s gift. If you like drinking, just buy wine that is relatively well-known, has good-looking and elegant packaging (preferably in a gift box, which looks high-end). If it's tea, it's even easier, just buy the famous tea gift box.

Relatively speaking, grandma’s gifts are not that easy to choose. Personally, I think you can consider bracelets. The price mainly depends on your personal affordability. It must be well-packaged and look gorgeous.

(2) Parents’ generation (and corresponding uncles and aunts)

Gifts to your husband’s parents can be more expensive, while gifts from other relatives can be relatively civilian. Generally speaking, you can give skin care products to your mother-in-law (remind me again and again, if your mother-in-law is knowledgeable, she must buy brand-name products; if her mother-in-law does not care about skin care, she should also choose relatively popular ones). If your mother-in-law does not use skin care products, you can also consider giving her a bracelet. However, unlike grandma, you usually give her a jade bracelet and your mother-in-law a gold bracelet.

As for my husband’s father, if he smokes, he can buy expensive cigarettes. If you don’t smoke, you can consider some more healthy things, such as health supplements.

In addition, you can also buy warm woolen sweaters for your parents-in-law. Your mother-in-law can buy warm scarves, and your father-in-law can give you woolen sweaters, which is also very good.

As for collateral relatives, I personally think that fruit baskets, snack gift boxes, and milk are actually enough. If you have children at home, you can also buy a toy gift package.

(3) Older brothers and sisters

Generally speaking, you can give lipstick, bags, and skirts to your sisters. But what needs to be noted is that you must ask your husband clearly, such as what color lipstick you like, what style of bag and skirt you like, otherwise it will be more embarrassing if you make a mistake. As for your brother, you can consider giving him a watch.

(4) Younger brothers and sisters

If the younger brothers and sisters are still relatively young, girls can buy Barbie doll sets, and boys can give Lego toys. But most of today’s children mature earlier, so why don’t you give them a set of coaching materials hahahaha (just kidding).

If they are relatively older, such as middle school or high school, you can consider giving them electronic products, such as bracelets, or even tablets and mobile phones, which are all good.

If you are already in college or even working, you can consider giving lipstick and perfume to girls, and you can consider giving basketball shoes to boys.

(5) Young nieces and nephews

In this case, they are generally relatively young, so you can consider giving them the kind of bracelets worn by children. It doesn’t need to be expensive, for example, silver will do. The point is that it has a better meaning.

Finally, I need to remind you that no matter what kind of gift you give, try to wrap it as much as possible. If there is a big gift package, definitely don’t buy it in bulk and make it yourself.
