All of the hard work is over and now, it’s time for the class of 2012 to make their way into the real world. But what can you give to a hard working student on graduation day that they’ll never forget? Maybe you’re a relative, looking for a gift or maybe you’re a graduate and can’t decide what to buy for a fellow graduate. Either way, our gift guide is here to help you.

1. A spa experience

We can’t think of many activities better than a spa experience, to melt away the stresses of studying hard for three years. You don’t necessarily need to go on holiday, to escape for a while, during the summer.

A facial or a massage can be the perfect way to take some ‘me time’, ponder your achievements and emerge fresh-faced and ready to take on the world.

2. An iPad

Graduation is a big deal and so is an iPad. If you’re ready to splash the cash to celebrate, nothing says ‘we are proud of you’, quite like an iPad. It will also make job hunting, post-graduation a little less daunting. Or, if a job is already secure, they can impress their boss with the brand new gadget.

You can even get them engraved, so they’ll always be reminded of their graduation.

3. Jewellery

Jewellery is the perfect gift for a keepsake. Every time they look at their item of jewellery, they’ll think of their graduation and how far they have come.

4. A holiday

We’re not talking a two week holiday in The Hamptons (unless you can afford it). But if your recipient is ready to sacrifice a little bit of luxury, a few days relaxation could be on the cards. Flights can be relatively cheap to Europe but it does take a bit of shopping around.

Is the student you’re buying for going travelling after graduation? How about a charm bracelet to remind them of the cities they go to? This beautiful collection from Pandora has a charm for the world’s most famous landmarks.

 

5. A camera

And finally, how about a camera to capture the memories? It may be worth giving this to them on Graduation day, to start their collection off, nicely. It’s always best to head into a store and tell them your requirements, when shopping for a camera. A photography enthusiast may not be too enthralled with your basic digital camera.

    I like the spa idea, but I think I’m the one who needs it most since I’ve been so stressed out that my one and only child is leaving for college in just a week! I like the idea of an iPad as a graduation gift from high school since my son just told me the other day that he would be able to get his textbooks on it. He’ll also be able to watch live TV and our DVR recordings on a new iPad since we have a Sling Adapter connected to our receiver. When I learned from one of my co-workers at Dish that the Dish Remote Access app is free to download and free to use, I knew it would be something that my son could use while away from home. Since he loves gadgets, I think an iPad is the best choice. Thanks for helping me find the perfect gift!
