Remember when your nephew was born, and you held him for the first time? Even as a baby, he was delighted to see you. And your bond grew from there. You’ve become the epitome of a cool uncle – the one that everyone wants to have in movies and stories. Now with birthdays and holidays coming up, it’s time to think of the best gifts from uncles to nephews. You don’t have to be overly sentimental or sappy because sentiment comes from the gift giver, not the gift. Choose a present from the heart, regardless of how silly, fun, or cool, and it’ll mean something special because it’s coming from you… his favorite uncle
