Christmas is so much fun. I love the decorating, the baking of course and finding great gifts for my family and friends! I also realize that it can be extremely stressful. So I am going to do a series of gift guides and maybe it will give you an idea or two for those on your list!
I have 3 boys and a nephew ranging in age from 7 to 17, plus I have 4 nieces from ages 8 to 15, so I need to find a pretty big variety of gifts. Some of these products we have tested out personally and a few are on the list for this year.
About every other year I order most everything online. Last year we took a trip to South Dakota for my little guy’s birthday, which is right before Christmas. We did some shopping at Cabelas and it was still pretty stressful.
This year I will likely order most everything. Life has been incredibly busy, it seems more than usual so I am planning to get it accomplished as easily as possible.
Let’s get started!
Boogie Board
8.5 inch LCD Drawing Tablet. Ideal for doodlers of any age. I bought this for my 11 year old niece and she loved it. I also bought a case to go with it. It comes in a variety of colors for boys and girls and I think the teenagers would like it too.
Perplexus Maze Game
Twist and turn the ball to move the marble through 3 different mazes. Recommended for ages 6 to 12 but my teenagers couldn’t put it down and neither could I! There are several different ones to choose from. This is the one we have. I love that it doesn’t take batteries, it’s quiet and it keeps their attention!
SofaSak Jr. from Fombag
Isn’t this the coolest kid chair ever! Made from 100% USA foam. The cover is washable while the inside has a child-proof zipper to hold the foam. There are tons of fabric choices and one to fit every size kid (or adult). We don’t have this but it is on the list for this year!
CRKT Nathan’s Knife Kit
My little guy loves this knife. It comes in a kit so you get to build it! It is a great way to teach outdoor kids about knife safety. My little guy wants to be just like Dad and his older brothers and now he can carry his own pocket knife and I don’t have to worry about him loosing a finger!
Emily Elizabeth Soft Dress Up Doll from Clifford the Big Red Dog
Little girls love dolls and this one is super fun! The clothes come off and include buckles, snaps and a button for those little princesses to practice! I don’t have any sweet little girls, but I bought this for a friends daughter and she seems to love it, and it’s so cute!
Sterling Silver Monogram Bracelet from My Name Necklace
All girls love jewelry and this monogram silver bracelet caught my eye some time ago. There are tons of different options with matching necklaces and pretty affordable, ideal for little girls and teenagers too!
Personalized Charm Yoga Bracelet from CICIDesigns Jewelry Etsy Shop
I like bracelets, can you tell? I love the personalized charm and the muted tones of this bracelet. The handcrafted items on Etsy make great gifts and I love supporting small businesses!
Adventurine & Silver Beaded Waxed Linen Bracelet form CICIDesigns Jewelry Etsy Shop
Another cool bracelet from the same Etsy shop. I just don’t think you can go wrong with jewelry for girls!
Dangerous Hunts for XBOX and PS3
If your kids are into outdoor adventure and hunting and video games, this is pretty cool. Not for little ones but the older kids love it. There are several different varieties, like Big Game Hunts that are fun too.
Altec Lansing Ultra Portable Speaker
Great portable speaker that runs on AAA batteries ideal for teenagers with iPods! I bought this for my teenage son and it worked really well for being so small.
