Christmas: the time for mulled wine, Christmas trees, mistletoe and roast turkey. This festive month also brings with it the headache of finding the perfect gift for every single member of your immediate and extended family. Ideally, you would have already planned out exactly what you're getting and for whom by end of November, but planning so far ahead is easier said than done. 

If you're stuck on what presents to buy your loved ones, or you haven't had time for a shopping trip yet, these Christmas gift ideas might inspire you!

For Mum & Dad

Your parents deserve something special! Treat them to an unforgettable memory by organising a fun and relaxing experience they can enjoy together. A weekend break, a much-needed spa day, or a wine tasting session will encourage your parents to really enjoy some quality time together.

For Grandma & Grandpa

Your grandparents are probably already extremely adorable. But how about contributing further by getting them matching sweaters to celebrate their everlasting love for each other, and your love for them? It would be even more fun if they're Christmas-themed.

Then again, if you really want to make their Christmas a special one, a day out with the whole family is probably the best gift you can endow them with!

For Children & Grandchildren

We live in an era of digital devices and touch screens, so toddlers can really benefit from educational toys that can help them enhance their motor and cognitive skills. Whether it's a puzzle game for an older kid or a scientific toy for the inquisitive child, local toy shops have it all. So identify what the little ones are interested in, and help their creativity run wild.

For some inspo, check out the trendiest toys which are making a hit in 2019.

As for teenagers or young adults, go for an exciting book or novel, an adult colouring book or an intriguing board game.

For your Brother or Sister

We know siblings can be annoying at times, but they are the people you turn to when you ever need a shoulder to lean on. Show them how grateful you are for having them in your life with some fashionable men's or women's clothes to add to their wardrobe. You know their style and what they already have too much of in their wardrobe, so you can choose something fancy and thoughtful like a watch, a scarf or a pair of shoes they've always wanted. Vibrant socks, a funny tie or a cosy onesie will also be a hit.

Is sibling rivalry very much alive in your family? How about organising a laser tag game, paintball or a go-karting race for a different kind of Christmas gift?

For Cousins

The benefits of technology in certain situations can't be denied. If you want to remain in your cousins' good books, get them a cool mini-gadget that is inexpensive but useful. With a budget of €20, you can easily find a nice pair of headphones, a portable speaker, a USB car charger or perhaps even a selfie stick.

For your Best friend

A close friend surely deserves a personalised gift. So why not print a message or a photo which truly defines your friendship? This could be inspired by something meaningful to both of you: be it an inside joke or a lovely memory you have together. There is an endless range of products that can act as a canvas for your personalised idea: a shirt, mug, pillow, tote bag, mouse mat, apron… the list is endless!

For distant relatives you don't really like
