We have a list of creative graduation gift ideas for every age. The question is, what to offer as a graduation gift? And what’s appropriate for their age? Money is always easy to give, but it’s less personal. Whether they’re graduating from kindergarten or college, that special young person in your life has showcased their intelligence and ability to thrive in society by graduating. You’re not just happy you’re proud! Proud as a student graduating, but especially proud as a parent, relative, or friend of a graduating student. Graduation is a very special type of celebration.
