Getting ready for Christmas can often feel like you’ve got too little time and too much to do. As much as you try to prep and plan, there’s always a few things that get forgotten.
If you’ve accidentally spent the hours dedicated to Christmas shopping to decorating your Christmas tree instead, don’t panic. From Christmas gifts for him and her, to presents for your baby’s first Christmas, we have plenty of thoughtful (and last minute!) gift ideas that are sure to put a smile on your loved ones’ faces.
Christmas Gifts For Him
If you consider the men in your life hard to buy for, think again. While you can never go wrong with a tie or some socks, this year you can surprise him with something a little different: loungewear.
Helping him to kick back and relax in front of a festive film, opt for some checked pyjama bottoms and slippers. Cosy and cool, pyjamas are the perfect present for a holiday filled with downtime. To keep out the cold, you can even throw in a fleece dressing gown as well.
Christmas Gifts For Her
Christmas is a great excuse to treat loved ones (and yourself!) to some special surprises. If you’re looking for a standout gift for her, we recommend an on-trend accessory, like a faux fur bag. Playful and fashionable, a fun bag will make a stylish addition to whatever outfit she’s planning for New Year’s Eve.
Or, if she prefers nights in to nights out, a seasonal Yankee Candle and a super-soft throw is a gifting duo that’s hard to beat.
Festive & Fun Stocking Fillers
For many kids, opening their stocking is one of the most exciting parts of Christmas day – as long as they’ve been nice!
The brilliant thing about stocking fillers is that they offer plenty of opportunities to get creative. As well as family-themed presents like matching pyjamas, you can also gift cute character accessories. From Minnie Mouse rucksacks and Peppa Pig hats to Harry Potter fancy dress, our gifts for kids’ collection has something for everyone.
Don’t forget to add in a LEGO set to keep them occupied while you organise Christmas dinner!
The Secret Santa Workshop
Love it or hate it, the office Secret Santa is a festive tradition. Plus, it’s a great way to socialise and bond with new colleagues. If you’ve left your Secret Santa gift shopping a little late this year, a novelty mug is a reliable option.
Whether your Secret Santa’s beverage of choice is tea, coffee or hot chocolate, gifting them a unique mug will bring an entertaining element to the afternoon tea-run.
Your Baby’s 1st Christmas
Celebrating your baby’s 1st Christmas is a special milestone for the whole family.
For a sweet present that will help them look the part for all the festivities, pick an adorable Christmas all in one or a seasonal slogan T-shirt.
Something A Little Different
It can be easy to get caught up in the gifting side of Christmas. Even so, the festive period is really about spending time with your loved ones.
With this in mind, the greatest gifts of all are often based around a joint activity. Check out our suggestions below:
1. Ice Skating
Enjoy a winter wonderland experience with your family by taking them ice skating. The ultimate seasonal activity, you and your kids can skate (or slide!) to your heart’s content.
Discover our Frozen and Frozen 2 character collection for beautiful fancy dress outfits to match your day out.
2. Family Film Night
Christmas is a time for getting cosy and what could be better on a cold evening than a family film night?
As well as prepping festive snacks, light some Christmas candles to set the mood.
3. Festive Bake Off
Pass on your family recipe secrets by treating your little ones to a Christmas baking session.
Whether you choose to create Christmas biscuits, meringues or those all-important mince pies, this is a wonderful bonding experience that encourages all ages to get involved. Just remember to stock up on non-stick baking equipment to prevent any baking disasters.
You could even crown a Christmas star baker!
