21st Birthday Gift Ideas

My son turns 21 later this year, and I’m quite stuck for what to get him.

I had suggested a trip away (NYC), but he wasn’t keen.

He has asked that I contribute to the cost of his second year of insurance. That feels really not very special, but I will do that if it’s really what he wants.

Just looking for any other suggestions though?

He already has two watches, one of which was bought for his 16th and one for 18th.

Thanks.

What's he into?

A musical instument.
A dog.
Help to buy a car.
A pair of RM Williams boots.

A dog is a no go, unfortunately. As much as he thinks he would love one!

He’s into music, as in festivals and raves. But already has a couple booked for this year.

Goes to the gym and plays football, but only casually.

He’s already got a car, which he pays for, and I paid the first years insurance on.
