15 Joy-filled Gifts to Bring Christmas Smiles to Your Family
Lake Lights Candles This past fall when my family was visiting the Poconos, we chanced upon this sweet family-owned store and watched the proprietors pour their own candles! The store was filled with incredible scents, and many of the candles are in unique, reusable containers, like ceramic mugs, faux wood planters and stoneware bread pans. I have a maple butter candle burning now and the whole house smells amazing! I’m so impressed with the quality of these candles and how long-lasting they are, and good news? Lake Lights is soon going to start selling their items online. In the meantime, a small candle jar is included in the giveaway!
Evel Knievel Stunt Cycle Anyone else remember this toy from their childhood? It’s back this year! My husband had so much fun playing with this as a kid, and is tickled our children can now enjoy the daredevil stunts too. Grab this toy for the kiddos on your list!
Letters from Santa. These letters are a happy tradition in our family! My kiddos are on the cusp of being wise, but these letters are super-sweet and always make them smile. They are such a fun way to add a dose of Santa magic to your home. Use code MOMYEAR2020 for 15% off through 11/30 on your own Santa letters!
Ravensburger‘s Gravitrax Obstacle Course Set My kids love Gravitrax! They spend hours building courses and creating new challenges together. I’m so excited about this new obstacle course set to add to their collection. It’s the perfect non-screen activity for them to tackle during the winter months.
Tabletop Games from Ravesburger and ThinkFun. My son is OBSESSED with games! There is almost an entire room of our house dedicated to board/table games, I kid you not. I’m super-excited to gift him Back to the Future: Dice Through Time and Marvel Villainous, both on his Christmas list year. And good news–ThinkFun‘s Minecraft Magnetic Travel Puzzle is up for grabs in the giveaway!
You’re Pulling My Leg (Adult and Junior Editions) This is such a fun game for all ages! I especially love that there are separate editions for tweens and adults. It’s a silly way to enjoy time together and learn more about each other too. Bonus! You can score BOTH editions in this giveaway!
Joyin Advent Calendars I love these calendars! We always do a fun advent calendar with the kids, and I think it’s such a neat way to build up those Christmas smiles throughout the month of December. Joyin has SO many different ones to choose from, you are sure to find the perfect one for your child. From slime, squishies, trucks, fidgets, make-up and loads more, they have a huge range of interests covered at very affordable prices.
Crazy Aaron’s Thinking Putty. We are huge Crazy Aaron’s fans (we even went to visit the store and met Aaron himself last year!) has so many cool options, and are coming up with new putty concepts all the time. They are giving away four of their newest products in the giveaway: one of their Putty Sports, a Create and Melt holiday putty, an X-Ball, and an Angry Putty.
Read on for some fantastic stocking stuffers your family will love…
Six Feet Away I’m so taken with these sleek hand sanitizer holders! They are such a pretty accent for to your purse or keychain, and fantastic for making sure you always have sanitizer. They make for such a lovely stocking stuffer/gift embellishment, but I’m giving you permission to order one (or a few!) for yourself now, mama, to keep sanitizer fashionably close while you run necessary Christmas errands.
Aveline razors Check out how cute these razors are! I both love the design and that they are available as part of a razor subscription service along with other women-friendly shaving products focus. Having it set up as a subscription reminds me to change my blade, which I do far too infrequently. Having one less thing for mom to remember to buy is a definite win! Good news? There is a shaving starter set up for grabs in the giveaway!
Kayo is an incredible line of high-quality body care. Founded in 2016 by 20-year beauty and wellness industry veteran, Christine Bullock, Kayo is the first face grade™ body care line. From creams, scrubs, serums and oils to oral supplements to hemp tincture oil, get ready to feel pampered!
Elyptol is committed to producing antimicrobial (kills more germs than just antibacterial) sanitizer with eucalyptus oil and other natural ingredients that is gentle and nourishing to your skin. My hands feel not only fresh, but soft after every use–a true feat for a sanitizer! Grab some and pop in everyone’s stocking as a perfect covid-friendly treat!
Dr. Plotka also produces an antimicrobial product–toothbrushes! I love the fold-up style too. Super for travel, but this design also helps protect against bathroom-counter germs. Super for these days when we must do everything we can to battle germs! 4 adult toothbrushes, 4 kid toothbrushes, and 2 travel toothbrushes up for grabs in the giveaway below!
TP Kits. This is such a genius idea! I’m guessing I’m not the only mom who has been in a situation where having this kit in my bag would have been super-helpful! Grab a few and stash them in your purse and car, you’ll thank yourself later 😉 2 10-packs are included in this giveaway!
CBDent is toothpaste with a twist–it includes CBD! This toothpaste contains all natural ingredients that have been shown to kill bacteria, fight inflammation, reduce sensitivity and whiten teeth. Recent research showed that CBD killed 5-6 times more bacteria than traditional toothpaste. Toss some tubes in stockings and get ready for a bunch of super-clean Christmas smiles!
Now that you have the whole list of joy-filled gifts to bring Christmas smiles to your family, make sure to enter the giveaway below! I’m throwing in a few surprise items from BlueQ, one of my favorite brands for gifts, too! There is $250 worth of goodies up for grabs!
