The best gifts to give your family

When you have a big family, it's not always easy to find original gifts for each member. Often the simplest choice is to bet on emotion by offering a personalized gift that inevitably strengthens the family bond: items that bring together photographs fall into this category. Moreover, by playing this card, you are sure to hit the mark and above all, to avoid duplicates.

Almost daily, you take photographs with your digital camera and your cell phone. Either they remain saved in the memory of your device without ever being viewed, or they scroll through social media content that some disconnected people never check. Printing photographs in an album or book is a gift idea that will hit the mark on more occasions than you could imagine. 

The best gifts to watch oneself grow

It is increasingly common to have your brother's little family living at the other end of France and your cousins at the other end of the world. Perhaps you are the one who has moved away from the area where the family originated.

Yet, you remain very attached to your loved ones, calling them frequently and even doing video calls. And yet, you have no photos of your niece or nephew to put in a frame. You realize that all the photos displayed in your home are several years old and that your parents do not see how much you change and their grandchildren grow.

Creating a custom photo book is a way to give news to your family and show them the environment in which you live. You can enhance the images with written excerpts, useful for telling anecdotes. It is also an opportunity for you, the book creator, to delve into the past and find forgotten snapshots. Available in the format of your choice, you can adapt its size to the recipient, bound like a traditional book, it is an object to flip through easily and without moderation.

In addition, it can be interesting to create an album about an animal that has just joined the family and will not be able to travel with you. Why not introduce the new companion to your relatives by offering them a photo album? The images will surely be funny or cute, and they'll never tire of them.

For good family memories

Big family events are perfect moments to make a family photo album. For a wedding or a christening, everyone is together, well dressed, and smiling. You want to pass on these beautiful moments and have them etched in memory. It's a gift that the newlyweds can plan to thank their family for being with them on their special day.

However, with the switch to all-digital, there are smaller events that do not get an album even though they deserve one. If the entire family could not be there for a birthday or missed a child's success at a sporting competition, the absent family members can find solace in an album. Creating it on a site like FlexiLivre takes very little time, and you can customize the pages in a fun way by choosing a theme. Guaranteed fun for everyone.

The websites and blogs where you can find recipes in a few clicks are multiplying, but your aunt's pancakes will always be the fluffiest and your grandfather's stew is unmatched. You yourself have some specialties that are renowned in the family. Why not compile all these cooking secrets into one recipe book? That way, they won't be lost, and everyone will be delighted to contribute to the project, either by giving their little secrets or by proposing a picture of themselves enjoying the meal.

The best gifts for sharing experiences

You've returned from a long trip abroad and your family is obviously curious about what you've discovered. You need to start sorting to present your journey to everyone, but the task is tedious because you've taken a lot of photos, some are not good quality, others are duplicates, and moreover, you need to organize them in a logical order. Be aware that there are softwares that can do this sorting work for you. This way you'll quickly gather the family to show high-quality photos in large formats, and above all, they'll be able to revisit them later at their own leisure.

Finally, if you want to impress everyone and provide an immersive experience, you can offer a 3D photo album. Both young and old will be delighted to don glasses with bicolored lenses to watch you navigate through stunning landscapes.
