Generally, giving a villager a gift will help to increase your relationship with them. On the villager's birthday, there is an opportunity to really boost your Love Points (for marriage candidates) and Friendship Points (for everybody). A gift given to the person on their birthday will be worth 5x as many points as the gift would be worth on any other day of the year.

Use these birthdays to your advantage, boosting your relationships with one gift. You can also wrap your gifts at Jeff's store counter for 100 G per wrapped item. A wrapped gift will earn an additional 25% LP/FP.

Ideally, you want to give a gift the person likes on their birthday, but you can also give disliked gifts and still earn 5x the relationship points. If you aren't sure if the villager likes the gift you want to give, save your game before giving the item so you can reload your save game and recover in case the gift results in a negative FP/LP hit.

Remember that only marriage candidates have a Favorite level of gift. Marriage candidates also have alternative birthdays to ensure that players don't share the same birthday as the candidates.
