Music Will Always Make For A Great Present (from mixtapes/cds/playlists to iTunes gift cards)

 

Happy Birthday Flipper!!!

Hey there, friends! Let me tell you something: music is the best when it comes to gifts. Seriously, it's the best thing you can give someone for their birthday, holidays, or just to boost their mental health. Trust me, I'm not just saying this for fun or because every episode of The Rainbow Flipper Musical Explosion is a gift! Music has this magical power to lift our spirits, bring back memories, and even make us dance like nobody's watching. So, next time you're scratching your head for a gift idea, just remember: music is the way to go.

You can still mix a tape or CD or even playlist for someone! I bet you have the means to do so, but you gotta look around for it. Well, it's nice to know cd and tape and radio boomboxes can be found on EBay and perhaps on the FaceBook marketplace. You can go digital, create a playlist and share or even get an iTunes or Spotify gift card! People love music. Even if they've never heard of the band or artist before! 

Sometimes, if someone is in a hospital, all they want is good music. To wear headphones and escape through music. Help heal. When I was a Nursing Aide, I would find numerous post-op patients, listening to music. Eyes closed. Tuned in and dropped out! The way to be, when listening to fantastic tunes.

So, next time it's a special occasion and you're racking your brains trying to decide on what to get them, never forget: music is one the greatest gifts you can give someone...and if they have a record player, even better!
