Celebrate a 50th Birthday With an Experience
Has the person turning 50 always wanted to do something but never been able to? Maybe they wanted to swim in a giant pool of spaghetti like in the movie Patch Adams, or maybe they'd like to go for a hot air balloon. Turning 50 is the perfect excuse to finally do the thing they've always wanted to do and can be a great gift!
50th Birthday Gift Basket Ideas
Pamper Yourself Gift Basket: Does he or she need a day to relax? You can make a gift basket with their favorite soaps, lotions, candles, a book to read, and maybe even include a gift certificate to a local spa for a day of massaging and relaxation.
Favorite Foods Gift Baskets: Does he or she have favorite foods? Whether its peanuts or chocolate or tea, a gift basket with unique or favorite foods is one gift you can be certain they will use and enjoy.
Year You Were Born Gift Basket: This is a fun creative idea for a 50th birthday gift idea - find things that relate to the year they were born. Anything to do with history or products made then would work: television series, candy, etc. For example, if I were to make one for someone born in 1959 I would include a Hawaain Lei (Hawaii became a state in 1959), an issue of Playboy (published first in 1959), DVD collection of shows from that year, a mixed CD of the top hits for the year, and any favorite candies they might have.

Share a Special Poem
You can use one of the many poems available online, but I think it is the best when you make it yourself. When you choose the words, it just shows to the person that you really put a lot of time and thought and effort into it. And that is always more meaningful to anyone than what the price tag says!
Once you have written your poem, you can share it by attaching it to a gift or you can frame and wrap it for another unique and special idea. This is always a favorite, and I think it will be what I am giving my aunt for her 50th birthday party. (But shh...don't tell her, it's a surprise!)
