As parents we work hard to make our kids birthdays special with a party, cake, and toys. We often fall into the train of thought that bigger is better. A dad named Peter came up with a great gift for his daughter’s 5th birthday. While she was napping he created a 164-foot drinking straw. It was no easy feat, the creative father started the fun from the table to a pillar and even down the stairs in their holiday home in Spain. He even spelled out ‘happy birthday’ in one of the stops. When his daughter woke up from her siesta she was thrilled to find her gift. She loved drinking from the straw as much as tearing the construction down. The dad from Belgium says, “it made me realize that I like giving memories a lot more than ordinary presents.”
