Best Christmas Gift Ideas for Everyone on Your List (Editor Picks)

This game is fast-paced and competitive but still accessible. Because the premise is based on the pictures on the cards, basically anyone of any age can play. I’ve played this over drinks with friends and at a birthday party with my young family members; both times were equally fun. It’s also easy to play with larger groups because you rotate between turns so quickly that nobody is ever left waiting for long. The game is nearly impossible to play without getting a little too competitive. — Tom Price, Associate Editor, Reviews

From bird lovers to new homeowners, this smart bird feeder is a surprising gift idea that’s sure to win Christmas.

It’s also lightweight, weather-resistant, and made of recyclable plastic housing. — Best Gifts Hub Staff

Keeping tea, coffee, and hot cocoa warm has never been easier than with Ember’s genius smart mug. It can be controlled with a smartphone and has a long-lasting battery.

It’s convenient, clever, and something your recipients probably wouldn’t buy themselves — all the ingredients for one of the best Christmas gifts. — Best Gifts Hub Staff

I have not met a single eyeliner-wearing person who doesn’t rave about this formula. The color payoff is amazing, the spreadability is perfect (creamy yet doesn’t smudge, AKA sorcery), and all the shades are just so, so sexy.

Adding another clunky appliance into a small apartment is a bummer, but feels necessary after a year of constant construction pollution, wildfire smoke, and intense allergies. This Dupray air purifier is much less of an eyesore than the traditional boxy design. You can use it as an accent table or a planter and simultaneously have it purifying over 1500 square feet with its HEPA-13 filter. Dupray gives you a choice of finishes for the tabletop and the color of the mesh around the base, too! — Bridget Clegg, Senior Digital Art Director

If you’re like me, buying a new set of knives is something you put off as long as possible. I cut with dull knives for years until I got this colorful set from Opinel as a gift. The knives are made in France and feature stainless steel blades and hand-varnished hornbeam wooden handles. They also come in an easy-to-wrap box. — Rachel Klein, Deputy Editor, Reviews

Who doesn’t like cozy fleece in the winter? An old hoodie is fine for around the house but I don’t like going out in them. This quarter-neck zip fleece is slightly more dressed up while still being warm and comfortable. It’s cut in a relaxed fit and has been washed for softness. The sweatshirts are also made in the U.S. from domestic cotton. Ed’s note: These go fast (as of writing, the Black sizes are already pretty picked over) so don’t wait. — Danny Perez, Commerce Editor

I am someone who relies on a lot of assistance to get a good night’s rest. A weighted blanket is critical for me, and my favorite blanket is by Bearaby. It’s a woven style with a soft cover and a deeply weighted feel. It’s also machine washable, which, as a hot sleeper, makes things feel cleaner overall. — Cat Bowen, Senior Editor for Commerce, Reviews

I love when gear intended for outdoorsy stuff does double-duty as home decor. That’s the case with Rumpl’s Original Puffy blanket, which is an excellent addition to any camping trip but also looks great unfurled on my bed or couch as a throw. The insulated puffer’s water-resistant ripstop nylon shell is super-soft, pulled up against your nose and chin, and a sewn-in clasp along the edge transforms the blanket into a cape. It’s available in more than two dozen colorful, groovy graphic prints and a few solids, and it stores in a matching stuff sack. — RK
