It’s a holiday season, and you might be shopping a gift for your family, friends, or even for yourself (sometimes we need to take care of ourselves too).
I collected some interesting gift ideas for myself and thought I would share with you too.
Whenever I search for a gift, I try to surprise the person with some different ones.
These gift ideas are not traditional gifts but are useful and fun. I want the person to keep it and remember me whenever she sees the gift.
Let’s get to the list.
Gifts for Moms, Sister, Wife or Girlfriends.
I consider women as strong, hard working and loving people in the planet. They deserve to be treated not just as pretty dolls but as an important character in the society.
Here are the ideas for women.
Amazon Echo
Echo is a device designed around your voice. You can talk to echo, ask questions, play music, set alarms.
It understands your voice and answers your question promptly. The beauty is you don’t have to touch the device, and it constantly listens to you.
Don’t worry it’s not creepy. It is just a good virtual assistant for you.
It’s an Amazon product and works really well.
Beats Studio Wireless Over-Ear Headphone
We work hard all day, and sometimes I want to shut the world around me off and just take some time off for me.
But you know, it is never possible with so much of noise around you. People are continuously talking, tv, radio, cell phone constantly buzzing the chances are very little.
That why I needed these headphones. I can quietly listen to any pleasant music without distractions. Sometimes I just keep the headphones on without any music to have some quite time.
If you do a lot of focus work like writing or reading, I use these headphone with brain.fm. You will see the significant increase in your productivity.
P.S. Brainfm is a service that I use; it is scientifically designed service to help you focus, sleep or meditate using music.
Aerobie AeroPress Coffee Maker
Aerobie is a little different coffee maker. There are 3 main characteristics for a good coffee.
There are 3 main characteristics for a good coffee.
1) Coffee has to be strong
2) Should not have the bitterness
3) Rich and smooth
To get this type of coffee, you may have to buy an expensive espresso machine.
Fortunately, these guys have come up with a new concept called Aeropress which produces a similar quality as a fine expresso machine.
The idea is slightly similar to french press, but the results are equally good.
If you or the person whom, you want to gift likes coffee, and then get him a personal coffee brewer.
Anker PowerCore+ mini Lipstick-Sized Portable Charger
More than anyone women need to be connected all the time. They can’t run out of charge on their cell phone. If the person is active, no phone can run the whole day without recharging.
A portable charger is a must accessory in any ladies bag. I liked this one because it is cute and doesn’t really look like a gadget.
It is one of the useful gifts for women and girls.
Art Naturals Bath Bombs Gift Set
An excellent relaxation and soothing gift for ladies. They would love these. Usually, when you take a bath for a long time, you will see the skin getting dry. Next time add one bomb in the tub, and you will see the skins get softer and smell great.
This collection comes with 6 flavors for different purposes. I am sure many women would love these.
Warm Chunky Soft Knit Beanie Skully
You need to cover your head and ears when you walk out of the house in cold.
Many times the warmers are so ugly and harsh, you don’t want to wear them.
I found these to be soft and attractive; they look like a fashion accessory more than a beanie cap.
Pure Therapeutic Grade Basic Sampler Essential Oil
These are an excellent alternative to the room fresheners.
The scents are natural and are claimed to have healing properties. I am not sure about that, but the scents itself are good compared to the harsh chemical room fresheners.
This gift set is an accessory for the Aromatherapy Essential Oil Diffuser
Gifts for Dads, Husbands or Boyfriends.
Most of the time guys interests are simple, and they live with what they already have.
Because of this reason, I often find it difficult to come up with great gift ideas for men.
Beer Chiller
These are great for parties; guys would love these. They help keep the beer cold for a long time.
It is also handy when you had to buy beer at the minute, and didn’t have time to chill it.
GoPro HERO4 SILVER
Active men would love these whether attaching to a bike or a head strap. They come in handy and take great videos on the go.
You can also get this holiday bundle with all the accessories.
GoPro HERO4 SILVER Holiday Bundle
Beard Balm Leave-in Conditioner
Many guys are hesitant to grow a beard just because of the maintenance aspect of it. For some, they like the looks of it so grow it anyway.
For these guys with beard, this all Natural -Vegan-Friendly Organic Oils helps soften the beard and reduces the itch.
Home Brewing Craft Beer Kit
Men like activities, they find it more interesting when they do stuff on their own.
This crafting beer kit would be a great idea for the guys who like to do stuff.
They would feel proud to make their own beer at home.
For lazy guys. Bad idea.
Electric Skateboard
You might have heard lots of buzz around these hoverboards.
I am pretty sure every other guy would be dreaming about these. They are real fun and guys would love to play with them.
Gift Ideas for Kids
The modern world is spoiling kids with technology; Kids are not active and not developing natural skills like arts and science. Rather they are getting ruined by video games and tv.
And I am very particular when it comes to picking a gift for kids.
I prefer gifting kids with something they can learn, and would be useful for their future.
Casio 61-Key Portable Keyboard Package
Get the children to learn music, music is one of skill that develops creativity and coordination.
It is just a matter of few weeks they would fully hook up to the music and in no time, they will start producing great sounds.
This package comes with Headphones, Stand, and Power Supply, so the kids can start playing around immediately.
I found another one that has lighted keys for beginners from Yamaha.
And if you choose to get one of these, don’t forget to get this piano course beginner book.
The child would sincerely thank you when he grows up.
Acoustic Guitar Starter Package
Similarly, you can gift a guitar too. It’s just a preference, most of the guys prefer guitar and girls seem to like piano or keyboard.
If you buy a guitar, this book will go in handy to start learning guitar quickly. – Teach Yourself to Play Guitar
Home Karaoke System
Just like music instrument, you could help the kids to sing and have fun too. A karaoke system will assist them in train to sing along with music.
This one seems to have a sleek design with an amplifier on the base and also comes with free karaoke music downloads.
Laugh-Out-Loud Jokes for Kids
For younger children, you can entertain them with jokes. This book seems to help children to be engaged and laugh out load.
Getting the little ones to read books in a fun way is a good habit to cultivate from the childhood.
Gift Idea for Home Cooks
Pre-Seasoned Cast-Iron Skillet
You might know the cast iron is the best material for heat retention and distribution. It can handle heat up to 600f. Making it one of the best skillets for sautee, frying, searing, browning and for cooking that involves high heat.
A great gift for someone who is interested in cooking.
Bluetooth Precision Cooker
I can’t believe that the technology has started influencing even the cooking appliances.
This one comes with a Bluetooth connectivity, there is one with wifi too.
The best part of this cooker is, it is immersible in any pot or vessel.
With this cooker, you can cook remotely from anywhere in the house with your smartphone.
Cook and Carry Oval Slow Cooker
This programmable cook and carry slow cooker, lets you cook your favorite food and then carry around without transferring the food into another vessel.
The programmable features let you set timings and cook automatically without your supervision.
Another great gift for home cooks.
Gift Ideas for Health
We all know health is wealth. A gift that helps people stay healthy is the greatest gift of all.
Wireless Sleep Headphones
As I mentioned earlier, there are music services that help you sleep better. These wireless headphones with a headband let you sleep without any disturbance.
They are soft and hypoallergenic so that you can listen to your music and sleep like a baby.
FlipBelt
For active people, these are an excellent accessory. Many times it ‘s hard to secure loose items like keys, driving license when we are running or doing any activities outdoor. Often we end losing them because the item jumped off your pant pocket.
This belt helps secure those things without disturbing your activity. The belt tightly snugs around your waist and gives you a pocket to store your loose items.
Not a bad idea for a gift right.
Indian Healing Clay Deep Pore Cleansing
Clay is the world’s powerful facial element. It helps cleanse deep pores and keep skin fresh.
This Indian clay is rated high in Amazon by more than 6k people.
Fitbit Charge HR
The activity tracker has become a critical gadget for everyone. The best use of this one is it gives data about our body in real-time. This data helps us to take actions and keep us stay healthy.
An excellent gift idea for anyone, even if they are not interested in health. They will get interested after they start using this.
Generic ideas for everyone

Did you know many people like foods as gifts? Especially if they are premium quality food.
These dry fruits and the nuts tray is filled with premium dry fruits like Apricots, Prunes, Angelino plums and many more dried fruits along with almond and pistachios.
Kindle Paperwhite
I strongly encourage everyone to read as many books as possible. Books have changed many people lives including mine. Reading books are one of the most powerful habits. It helps you reach greater success in life.
Kindly makes the reading book accessible.
It eliminates the need to carry around the books. Almost any books are available in Kindle store and with a subscription plan, Amazon lets you read any books without buying them.
Some people don’t like to read on a tablet. Fortunately, this Kindle comes with a paperback giving a feeling of reading from a book.
Kindle is a great gift for anyone. If you decide to buy one, consider this bundle with great accessories.

Just a fun gift, this quadcopter is cool. Controlled by a remote and it has inbuilt camera in it.
It is great for the outdoor activity or taking pictures from the sky.
Adult Coloring Book: Stress Relieving Animal Designs
You know the best stress relieving activity is focusing on something else. Only a few activities can help you tune out completely and focus on something else.
This coloring book will help you get creative and, in turn, helps relieve stress.
Amazon.com Gift Cards
Sometimes it is better to keep the gifting simple. Instead trying to guess the best gift for the person you could just hand over a gift card.
Especially if the person is someone you don’t know much about. Amazon makes it even simple; you can send the gift card in an email.
It is a good idea for someone who is searching for a gift at the last minute.
That’s my list. If you have anything interesting to share, do forget to let me know.
