Finally it’s Holiday time! I feel like I’ve been waiting all of 2020 for this. Since I am on bedrest and have a (little) extra time, I’ve already completed my Christmas shopping! I figured I’d share my picks with you in case you were feeling stuck at all. Below I have gift guides for baby, girls, boys, siblings, Mom, Dad, and stocking stuffers. I also included my favorite – experience gifts. I recommend ordering early since the entire world will likely be solely online shopping this season.

Experience Gifts
One of my favorite gifts for my kids are things they can do or places they can go. Experience gifts are always at the top of my list when loved ones ask for ideas for the kids. Unfortunately, the options are limited currently especially for plays and shows. Here are a few of my favorite ideas for 2020!
- Subscription Boxes – Our absolute favorite is Little Bookish Wardrobe. You get a themed book, a craft, and a dress up costume every month and the quality is excellent. We were introduced to this box when the owner reached out to gift us one in exchange for our feedback, but we are now fully paying customers and will be for the long term! Check out the Christmas box available to order now and use code mrstristinapon10 to save.
- Movie Tickets – Did you know you can still go to the movies? They are showing old movies at a discounted price and new movies are starting to roll in. My kids always feel special when they get to go to the movies.
- Great Wolf Lodge – If you have a Great Wolf Lodge nearby you definitely need to check it out! You may not want to visit right now, but a gift card to use when this pandemic is all over would be an excellent experience gift.
Stocking Stuffers
- Girls – Wallet, Cry Baby, Slippers, Stick-on Earrings, Bath Bomb, Nail Polish
- Boys – Wallet, Tool Belt Set, Slippers
- Hers – Eye Mask, Roadtrip Kit, Pedicure Set
- His – Lump of Coal Soap, Poo-Pourri, Shoe Cleaning Kit
I hope this was helpful! Wishing you and your family a very merry Holiday season. It may be different, but we still all have each other and our one true reason to celebrate – Jesus – and that’s what is important!
