Sponsored by

Your 2-minute-a-week shortcut to
always having awesome gift ideas well in advance.

Hi gift-giver! Go ahead, break the sibling code — be a tattletale about today’s gift idea.

The “sponsored sibling getaway" Gift:

• Removes a barrier (financial expense)

• Long-term ROI - fosters lasting bonds

• Selfless (the parents aren’t participating)

• Many prefer experiential gifts over material ones 

• Gift tradition that takes the guesswork out of future gifts

BGC “sponsored sibling getaway" Playbook:

1. Determine the budget

2. Provide advanced notice so they can plan

3. Establish payment logistics (you pay upfront, gift card, reimbursement, per diem, etc.)

4. Communicate your expectations (compromising, timing, desired spirit/purpose of the outing, etc.)

5. Make it an annual tradition

Instead of weekend getaways, consider sponsoring other quality time opportunities:

• Dining experiences

• Selfcare experiences - spa days, mani/pedis

• Adventures - amusement parks, nature excursions

• Entertainment events - concerts, movies, plays, etc

• Shared hobby or class - DIY home projects, trade shows, gardening class, etc.

• Memberships - season tickets, museums, amusement parks, gym, gaming subscription, etc.

Other gift-recipients to consider a sponsored getaway for:

• Retirees

• New Parents

• Friends/family

• Parents or grandparents

• Co-workers (even if it’s just paying for them to go out to lunch)
