Welcome to The Mint Chip Mama’s 2024 Gift Guide!
Boy did this year fly by! Well anyway, there’s only moving forward and buying gifts for your loved ones (and the people who you don’t really like) is always fun.
As usual, my first suggestion is SHOP EARLY. This gives you the most access to the hottest gifts of the season and removes a bit of stress. Additionally, it gives you time to think what people really want instead of just buying them a robe. HOWEVER, for what it’s worth, I really do love a good robe.
Speaking of… my favorite gifts are always the most useful ones. They may not be the most exciting but they will get the most use. Don’t you want your sister’s boyfriend’s mother to think of you every time she uses her brand new Swiffer?
Not into giving cleaning products for the holidays? My next favorite gift is giving an experience. This is perfect for a relative (grandparent, aunt, uncle, etc) to give a kid. I mean who doesn’t want tickets to go see X or have an all expense paid trip to Y! I love Y!
Writing this guide is super fun. Mainly because I love seeing the different categories emerge reflecting what came across our radar for the year.
In short, this one stop shopping guide will outfit everyone on your list and bring them a little joy. Yes, even if you get them a Swiffer because you KNOW there’s that one person who would actually LOVE one!
Bring On The Mint Chip Mama’s 2024 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 2024 Holiday Gift Guide, you’ll find gifts for everyone on your list including kids, sisters, brothers, teachers, techies, adults, and friends. It’s also the perfect destination for quirky stocking stuffers and white elephant gifts. 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.
