We Bobble
Just about everyone has seen bobblehead dolls in their lifetime. In the 1950s, bobblehead dolls first appeared in the sports world representing MLB teams with identical faces. However, bobbleheads have evolved a lot since they were first launched onto the toy scene. Older versions of bobbleheads were mainly sought after by collectors, and nearly fizzled out in popularity. The upsurge in their sales was prompted by a makeover of the bobblehead doll when manufacturer's decided to switch the main material of the dolls from ceramic to plastic.
The volume of bobblehead dolls now sold on the market are virtually endless; you can find them for any season and for any occasion. Big corporations often use them for promotional purposes and even include mini versions in cereal boxes as prizes. It's easy to find bobblehead celebrities, politicians, cartoon and movie characters, sports figures, and animals that can be sold as a standalone or can be purchased in a variety of background settings. Because bobbleheads can be personalized, they would make the perfect office gift for someone.
Typical office gifts often lack sentimental value. Snow globes and geometric paperweights are gathering dust and cluttering countless office cubicles all over America and are soon forgotten by the recipient. Bobbleheads are lighthearted, animated and unique, which makes them a great office gift from the mundane offerings, and can be used as business trinkets, paper weights, and cardholders for a boss or workmate.
