A Candle for The First Child
Best humorous gift for the eldest sibling in the family.
This candle finally validates the unique burden of being the family’s original guinea pig. While the wintergreen scent is refreshingly crisp, the real draw is the 60-hour burn time—plenty of time to reflect on the high expectations and inevitable mistakes that come with being the firstborn.
