What to Get Him???

My husband is the hardest person to buy a gift for-- I am totally stumped this year and he isn't giving me any ideas. He doesn't like for me to get him electronic stuff or tools because he's picky about those things-- he has returned many of my gifts in the past. The past few years, I've gotten him tickets to something he can go to either with our oldest or with the whole family-- we've done Disney Quest, House of Blues Gospel Brunch, and Cirque di Solel (all at Downtown Disney)... Tickets to something again would be a good idea, but I'm stumped... any suggestions?? (We live in Orlando)
A gift certificate, by the way, is out of the question. He is the main bread winner in the family so it doesn't make sense to just hand him back some money and tell him which store to spend it in, you know??

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Keep the ideas coming because I think other moms can get good ideas for their husbands... but I decided on circus tickets

Blue Man Group is awesome! (I've seen them in Vegas, Boston and their touring tour--lots of fun and family-friendly (your older kids will like it too).
If you want to splurge--Discovery Cove is an awesome experience, but $200 for the Dolphin Experience ($100 without) for FL residences.

Other than that--does he like any sports team or collect anything?
What about a watch? Is he picky about that kind of stuff too?

Hi Tammi! Great to see you today! How about tickets to Blue Man Group? They are at Universal now. We saw them at TD Waterhouse and they were AWESOME! Kids love them too!

Good luck finding something to give your husband! Merry Christmas!

I don't know if they have prepurchase tickets, but I found the cutest petting zoo. I have taken my daughter there several times. You can actually pick up duck, chickens, etc. There's a train ride. You can milk a cow and take a quick spin on a pony (wish that part was longer) Here's the site www.greenmeadowsfarm.com

God Bless!

How about sessions with a personal trainer or nutrition coach?
Something to help him get healthy in 2008 :)

Here are a few ideas, not sure what kid of guy he his but one of these might work.
1. Richard Petty's Driving Experience over by the Magic Kingdom, they have different packages at different prices.
2. Learn to ride a motorcycle at the Harley Davidson store on Lake Underhill $199.
3. Indoor Skydiving on I-Drive, they also have different options to choose from.
4. If he has a favorite sport and team, you could get him a hat or jersey or sweatshirt from that team.

Hope these help.
