For Kids
Buy something kid-friendly, something children would love. From toys to video games and from science kits to vacation packages, kids love everything. Kids are in love with the whole idea of Christmas gifts coming from parents and relatives.
Nicely wrapped gifts placed around the Christmas tree excite them so much that it looks like what's inside won't even matter! But kids are so unpredictable sometimes... at one time they want a toy, at another time a trip to Disneyland! Choose wisely.
Good Ideas: Toys, dolls (for girls), science and craft kits, board games, books, school stationery, video game consoles, clothes or plan a trip for them.
For Teenagers
It's hard to buy gifts for them, as you never know what they would like. They are picky at times; they want gifts with that 'cool' factor. They are neither little boys and girls nor grownups. They may not like the usual Christmas presents, they will expect something different, unusual and 'wow'!
Good Ideas: Funky clothes, stocking stuffers, watches, gadgets (cell phone, a laptop, an ebook reader, an iPhone, a camera) or trendy jewelry.
For your Boyfriend or Husband
For someone so special, you should not forget to personalize whatever you gift. Give him the gift as a surprise, do the gifting in a unique way.
You could plan a treasure hunt which takes him to the gift or keep the gift beside his pillow or on his writing table on the night before Christmas. Gift something that has a masculine element in it. Consider his personality type and take into account what he would like best.
Good Ideas: Gadgets, a watch, a wallet, accessories (belts, cufflinks, tie), wine glasses, a bottle of wine, beverage cooler, a beer-making kit or gift basket (containing chocolates, men's perfume, wine, Christmas goodies and a card).
For your Girlfriend or Wife
It goes without saying that you should buy something special for the woman in your life. She would appreciate your effort and thought behind the gift. Pamper her and make her feel special and she would love you more than before.
Yes, women like those feminine gifts; jewelry, bags, dresses, cosmetics, spa vouchers and more.
But presenting her with a cake you baked, her favorite dish you cooked, a photo album with pictures of all the memorable moments in your life together or a personalized card are also some things she would indeed appreciate.
Good Ideas: Culinary set, personalized aprons, trendy clothes, jewelry in precious stones, body and skincare products or a gift basket packed with chocolates and Christmas cookies, candles, a photo frame, keepsakes and a personalized card.
For your Parents
Christmas is a festival of joy. What more could you give your parents than your time! Yes, your comapny is what they need most. Go, meet your parents, take a day out for them, make them feel special and loved. Wondering what to shop for them?
Well, you could buy them travel vouchers and gift them a vacation. You could buy them your father an electronic gadget or accessories which he would love owning.
You could buy kitchenware for your mother or a dress, accessories and jewelry she would love wearing. You could also opt for couple gift ideas like a gift basket for the two of them or a photo frame with their picture.
Good Ideas: Christmas goodies, an album of family pictures, your family portrait, clothes, his and hers watches, a laptop, a new mobile phone (for your dad), a blender, a tea maker, cutlery (for your mom) or a surprise visit to their place!
Corporate Christmas Presents
If you own a business and wish to give Christmas gifts to all your employees, you can choose from these Christmas presents. You might need to send Christmas presents to all your clients as well. Gift baskets are the best picks.
When choosing gifts for your colleagues, consider the kind of relationship you share with them. For those you worked with for years, personalized gifts make good gifts. But for those you share only a professional relationship with, follow the formal gifting etiquette. Do not make the gift too personalized. You can gift them deskware or office supplies.
Good Ideas: Cubicle decoration articles, computer accessories, Christmas gift baskets, champagne or wine bottles or gift vouchers.
This should give you a wide variety of good Christmas presents to choose from. Select presents considering the choice and interest of the individual you are gifting it to and also take into consideration, your relationship with him/her. What matters most is the effort you take in choosing the presents and the feelings that your gifts express.
