From kids to friends and family, and even your grandparents, the holidays are likely spent with a mixed bag of generations, personalities, plus interests, which can make finding the right gift an uphill challenge. You can’t pick something that’s too general — otherwise, you risk being called out as thoughtless — but if you get too niche, it’s not something that everyone might love.
As luck would have it, we have some crowd-pleasing options just for you! There are gifts that encourage family time like local card games. Alternatively, if the family shows love through food, pick from a variety of advent calendars, drinks, and spice boxes. Read more below!
