  1. One year my mom got my dad a new fancy schmancy camera, so I got him a class on how to use that camera.  Give the gift of a photography class.
  2. My husband loves to cook, last year I had a local chef come to our house to teach him how to make a classic french meal.  Give a private or group cooking class!
  3. How bout skydiving!  If you are willing to do a tandem jump you don’t have to be there for some 8 hour class to learn how to jump on your own.
  4. Knitting/Crocheting/Sewing classes…last year I got a sewing machine and also got a “Get to Know your Sewing Machine” class.  It was awesome.  I’m hoping this year I’ll relearn crocheting.
  5. Guitar Lessons was a gift my dad gave my mom one year.
  6. Wine Tasting! Learn more about wine and get a little Tipsy at the same time!

Do you give these types of gifts? If so, what have you given? I’d love to hear!!
