Updated: Apr 28, 2021

How do you find the perfect gift for family and friends after a year like 2020? The good news is we have you covered. We have rounded up the best gift giving ideas for the upcoming holiday season which will help you celebrate with your loved ones.

 

Grab a coffee, take a deep breath… what a year this has been! The holiday season is approaching fast and just in case this has you worried, we are here to help! Finding the perfect gift for family and friends can be tough at the best of times, so what do we do when our normal shopping routines are disrupted?


One thing for certain is that it is always possible to find something for someone special in your life. It doesn’t have to be expensive, just thoughtful and this year has forced many of us to think about what really matters. So because 2020 has been a different kind of year, we thought we would share a different kind of list for gift giving ideas this holiday season. We hope you like it!

Health & Well Being


So we are all stuck indoors and dreading the coming winter. There has never been a more important time to look after yourself and your loved ones. Stop putting it off, start the new routine you have always wanted and invest in yourself. You will feel the difference. Here are our favourite health & well being gifts to give and receive.

Joe Wicks 'The Body Coach'


How can you not love this guy? With millions of YouTube followers and best selling books on health and nutrition you can't go wrong. Check it out.


How about a cup of tea? Or a really (really) nice cup of tea?


How about a cup of tea? Or a really (really) nice cup of tea? Forget about boiling kettles and dunking a teabag in a mug as you rush from one job to another. Grab a book, a comfy chair, sit back and indulge in a rich collection of premium superfood infused teas. Yes these are a thing and they are awesome. Check them out here.




Comfortable, Cozy & Cute!


If feeling relaxed and comfortable is your thing, we have you covered and we are right there with you. There is nothing as relaxing in a comfy pair of sweats. Here are our favourites which crank up the cuteness!


Lazypants for Women and Kids



Have you heard of Lazypants for Women and Kids? Ultra plush, warm, cozy and they come in an array of gorgeous warm colors. Start relaxing in style! Check them out here.


A flannel night shirt


Have you ever thought about a flannel night shirt? Neither did we! We know it's not 1860, but these are just incredible and it turns out there is a reason why these are still popular! Check them out here and start dreaming of log fires and snow.



Old School Board Games


Do you remember when we were kids and played board games (some of us thankfully never grew out of this) with friends and family? No Facebook, Instagram or checking status updates. No distractions, just quality time. Guess what, board games still exist! The classics are still there and there are new games begging to be played as you huddle around in your PJ's drinking hot chocolate (we have been known to add Bourbon or Baileys... just sayin').



You can't go wrong with any of the classics (Sorry!, Battleship, The Game of Life or Candyland. Or maybe you prefer to kick it up a gear with Pandemic, Betrayal at House on the Hill or kick back old school with BlockBuster! The Game. Your friends and family will thank you. Check them out here.



Tech & Gaming

If you are into gaming this holiday season is probably one you have been waiting on for a while. With Sony and Microsoft battling it out for your hard earned bucks, both have highly anticipated updates to their gaming systems coming online in November.


PS5


Sony's PS5 will ship in time for the holidays and comes in two editions: Regular Console or All Digital. Both promise to be epic and very hard to find! Check it out here.


XBOX Series X



In hot pursuit is the new XBOX Series X from Microsoft. Similar to Sony's PS5, there are two basic options for buyers, entry level (S Series) or the more powerful (X Series). As far as we are concerned you can't go wrong with either of these. Check them out here.


And don't forget... Shop Local!

This has been a tough year for small business owners and many have found innovative ways to transform their businesses online. You simply cannot beat the quality of small craft stores and they have pulled off a small miracle staying in business and adapting. Don't forget to give them some love too.


From artisan breads, pastries, coffee, donuts, ice-cream, clothing, house decor to pet fashion, booze and home organizing... chances are there are small local business who are pumping out amazingly unique products which your family and friends would love. They are online, find them (they can't find you).
