2023 Holiday Gift Guide
Welcome to The Mint Chip Mama’s 2023 Holiday Gift Guide!
It’s been a crazy few weeks with every emotion possible coming out. It’s hard to move forward sometimes, but you must keep moving forward. The holiday season is filled with lots of love and light. I’m hoping that my 2023 Holiday Gift Guide will bring you some of that.
Bring On The Mint Chip Mama’s 2023 Holiday Gift Guide!
All year long I comb toy shows, events, the internet, and everything in between to make my Holiday Gift Guide unique and special. I try to make it fun and lighthearted as we all need and want to laugh.
In this 2023 Holiday Gift Guide, you’ll find gifts for kids, sisters, brothers, teachers, techies, adults, and friends. Plus, unique toys, corporate gift ideas, white elephant presents, secret Santa, grab bags, taco lovers, and everyone else. My goal is to find hidden gems but also funny and meaningful (I did say taco lovers) gifts for all the people on your list. As always – don’t forget about yourself! You’re the only one who knows exactly what you want – and you deserve it!
Our tried-and-true repeat favorites are indicated with an “*”. These special items are so well loved they’re still sitting on our living room floor bothering my husband.
Click Away! I Spent The Year Testing Everything Out!
I love testing out new products and visiting interesting places so I can report back here. As a blogger, I rely on my readers to help spread the word. So, I ask you again please share this gift guide on your social channels. While there, please follow on my Blog, Amazon page (where you’ll find most of the below links) Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, and TikTok pages.
The Mint Chip Mama’s 2023 Holiday Gift Guide Is Updated All Season!
Don’t forget, I update my 2023 Holiday Gift Guide all season long, so please save and visit regularly! As always, one of my favorite gifts to give is an experience – which you can’t wrap in a box – so as the holidays unfold, I’ll be adding more there too.
