Condoms. If it's a case of not being able to afford a larger home than they should not have any kids, just my opinion. Hopefully tiny condoms wouldn't be needed. Would totally suck if one had a tiny home and a tiny D&$@.

I love some of these ideas.  Especially the 5ft teddy bear!

 

I'd say either Xanax to deal with being in such a small space with another person (kidding) or wireless headphones for ipad/TV/etc.  There are going to be times they'll want to watch their own stuff and you can't do that in a tiny house!

Knowing they are likely "green" minded and buying a tiny house I think I would choose for them a small herb garden kit.  One that could be on a window sill or outside.  Tiny spaces need plants.

The same gift you give to someone about to catch a flight.

A five foot teddy bear!

But, if you hope to see them again, forgo the bear and go with pre-paid months at the local U-store facility.

My last tiny house installed two storage sheds in the back yard with total SF larger than the house. Tuffy shed may be a way too expensive gift however, creating a collaboration with the local distributor may prove very beneficial in the future.

The sarcastic or cruel remark would be 'king-size bed', but under the circumstances maybe a gift certificate or cash might be best to let them decide after they live in the place for a while.
