I think we can all agree—coming up with birthday presents for kids isn’t always easy. Sometimes they already have everything, or they don’t really know what they want. In our case, our son changes his mind so many times, we’re never quite sure if he truly wants something or if he’s just saying it in the moment. That’s exactly why I made these printable birthday coupons for kids! They’re perfect when you want to give a gift that’s more about experiences than stuff. Think: an ice cream date, a movie night, or staying up past bedtime.
You’ll find a bunch of ready-to-use ideas, plus some blank coupons so you can fill in activities that your child personally loves. You might be surprised just how excited they’ll get receiving these. It’s a simple gift idea that makes your child’s birthday just that much more special.
Why Use Birthday Coupons for Kids
When you don’t know what to get for a kid’s birthday, these birthday coupons are a lifesaver. You can add whatever you want, and you don’t have to stress about finding the perfect gift. It’s a better way to make their big day even more special—plus, experiences are way more memorable than a toy they’ll forget about in a week. It’s such an easy way to give a fun, special day. Whether it’s a movie night, an ice cream trip, or skipping chores, these make a great gift. And really, who doesn’t love getting to go out and do something fun?
Birthday Coupon Ideas
I’ve included prefilled coupons and also blank printable coupons because not all of these will work for everyone. This will give you more room to personalize it. So if you are not wanting to have ice cream date as an option you can add your own birthday reward. The prefilled coupons are for:
- Your choice of dinner
- Extra 30 minute screen time
- A round of bowling
- One on one time with mom
- Trip to the zoo
- Movie night at home
- Stay up an extra 30 minutes
- No chores for the day
- Ice cream date
- One on one time with dad
If you want other coupon ideas take a look at these:
- One round of putt-putt golf
- A trip to the trampoline park
- Game night of your choice
- A trip to a museum
- Skip a vegetable at dinner
- Go to a theme park
- Wear pajama’s all day
- A sleep over at Grandmas and Grandpa’s House
