I love surprising my son with little things that make him smile, and recently, I decided to celebrate him finishing college in advance with some fun, thoughtful gifts. I didn’t want anything too serious or traditional—just a mix of practical, stylish, and playful. That’s how I ended up on Bigsmall.in, a treasure trove of quirky and unique products that are perfect for gifting.
Here’s what I picked for him (and yes, he loved them all!).
1. The Chic Insulated Sipper Flask With Straw
This was the showstopper! A sleek, durable sipper flask that keeps drinks hot or cold for hours. With a 1.2-liter capacity, it’s spacious enough for his gym sessions, road trips, or just lounging at home.
What made it extra special? I got it customised with his name. He absolutely loved the personal touch—it instantly became his go-to gym bottle. The spill-resistant design and comfortable grip mean it’s practical, but the stylish finish gives it that cool factor. Let’s just say his gym buddies are a little jealous.
2. The Leather Desk Utility Tray
This one was for his bedside table—a sleek leather tray where he can keep all his essentials in one place. Earphones, watch, wallet, keys… no more frantic “Where did I put that?” moments.
The best part? Like the sipper, I had it customised with his name, making it uniquely his. He instantly set it up by his bed and neatly arranged his things, which made me smile. (A little organisation never hurt anyone, right?)
3. The Axe-Shaped Pizza Cutter 🍕🪓
And then… I just had to add a fun, purely-for-laughs gift. Enter the axe-shaped pizza cutter. Since pizza nights are sacred in our house, this was perfect. He couldn’t stop laughing when he unboxed it, and of course, the first thing he did was order a pizza just to “test it out.” Watching him dramatically slice pizza like a warrior was worth every rupee.
Why Bigsmall.in Won Me Over
What I love about Bigsmall.in is how their gifts manage to be both quirky and practical. The sipper wasn’t just a bottle—it became his gym essential. The tray wasn’t just decor—it solved his “stuff all over the place” problem. And the pizza cutter? Well, that’s just pure fun.
It wasn’t about spending big; it was about finding gifts that matched his personality and added joy to the everyday.

Whether you’re looking to surprise someone you love or just want to add a little fun to your own life, trust me—Bigsmall.in has you covered.
Because at the end of the day, it’s not about waiting for the “big moment”… it’s about creating happiness in the little ones. 💫
You got some amazing gifts! I’d love that axe pizza cutter. It is lots of fun and it amuses me.
yeah some quirky things in kitchen are always good 🙂
These gifts are so fun and creative! I love how thoughtful the personalized sipper and tray are, and that axe-shaped pizza cutter is such a neat-looking tool LOL.
The Axe-Shaped Pizza Cutter looks really cool!
Oh yes, kids love these kind of things.
The ax pizza cutter is so funny! My sister uses a pizza cutter at home for quesadillas for her kids. It’s just a lot easier to cut through the cheese.
Yeah its so mess-free and funky at the same time.
It seems like you managed to find some really great gifts for your son at bigsmall. Mine would love the insulated flask, that’s really useful!
Yes, they have some amazing things out there, love the quirky ones and the fact that most of them can be customised too.
Aditi, your knack for finding gifts that strike the perfect balance between practical and playful is truly heartwarming! That personalized sipper flask especially sounds like an instant favorite for both the gym and everyday life.
Yeah and I think children love it when they feel something is customised especially for them. I enjoy that feeling.
Beautiful gifts! I love surprises too! My mother surprised me with a cup with my name engraved in it! I love and use it all the time! I’m not very good at doing surprises for others! I surprised a family member for her birthday, and that went well though! She really loves Harry Potter, and has read all the books and seen all the movies! I surprised her with a Harry Potter cup and a Harry Potter key chain! She really loved them, especially the cup! The cup changes under hot water! It’s really neat!
Yes personalisation I think always adds a little more value and personal touch. I am sure that colour changing cup was an amazing idea.
These items put the fun in ‘functional’! I really like the axe-shaped pizza cutter – it’s super cute!
Oh yes its so much fun, adds a dash of quirk in a utility item.
