If you still have shopping to do for friends and family, don’t worry. Here are some ideas for everyone on your list – even those that are hard to shop for!
Give Experiences
When it comes to gifts that people will remember, the presents are most often experiences – things that the receiver actually gets to participate in. Experiences allow people to make memories and spend time together – and they’re fantastic presents.
- The Chef & The Dish – With The Chef & The Dish, you Skype with chefs from around the globe during a live class! What a fun home “date night” this would make!
- Hunt A Killer – Do you know someone who likes escape rooms or solving a good mystery? Then they might like Hunt A Killer – which delivers a murder-mystery experience to your home via six “episodes” (boxes).
- In The Box Entertainment from the Adirondack Theatre Festival – While many theaters are closed for plays and musicals, the Adirondack Theatre Festival has created the world’s first interactive virtual experience. They’ve got a couple of upcoming “shows” that you should check out!
Give the Gift of Laughter
Who couldn’t use a little bit of levity in their life? So, why not give the gift of laughter? These gifts will surely bring a chuckle or two!
- The Complete DVD Series of The Office – With some smart comedy and so many classic lines, “The Office” is just plain funny!
- Unstable Unicorns – This strategy game will have you laughing – as you wreak havoc on your fellow players. It’s so much fun – and great for family game nights!
- Awkward Family Photos – Just flipping the pages in this book will have you laughing out loud. And if you’re brave – you can try and recreate some of these masterpieces.
Give the Gift of Time
