Gift Ideas for Different Family Members

by Rebecca Gold 23 Nov 2022

Once Black Friday arrives, that’s basically the official start of the holiday season. Whether you consider it the holidays now, not until December 1st or if you’ve had Christmas decorations out since the day after Halloween; it’s time to get going on that holiday shopping list now! 

If you’re looking for the perfect gift for mom, or the perfect gift for dad, the perfect gift for young girls or boys, or the perfect gift for teens, it’s really difficult to categorize gift-giving just by family role or gender - or sometimes even age. Honestly, there are moms and daughters who love the outdoors, go camping every few weeks, and love the a good hiking date. Then there are girls and women who wouldn’t be caught dead anywhere where there isn’t any air conditioning and prefer luxurious indoor settings everywhere they go. 

There are uncles and aunts who don’t even have a passport and then there are uncles and aunts who have run out of pages in their passports because of all the stamps they racked up. It all comes down to personalities and lifestyles. So we categorized a few lifestyle types to make gift shopping a little more thoughtful and helpful. We all have people like these in our families - among others - so get reading and get shopping! 

For the Traveler

For the Traveler

We’ve all got that one cousin, aunt, or uncle who we’re lucky to see at a family reunion. That’s because they’re jet-setting across the globe and on any given date, you’ll need to check their social media stories to see what part of the world they might be landing in!  Here are some gift ideas for the traveler in the family:  

  • Mini carry-on essentials case (for all their small electronic accessories) 
  •  A comfy travel pillow
  • A comfortable pair of leggings - the most comfy thing to travel in
  • Luggage travel cup holder - this goes on the bag handle to hold your cup of coffee as you roll through the airport so you can free up a hand
  • Waterproof underwear and bra storage bag 
  • Airplane Tray table cover with pockets 

For the Gamer Kids

For the Gamer Kids

Everyone’s got that nephew or niece who can’t seem to part with their favorite video game. Whether it’s an internet-streamed game or they play on a specific console, or even if it’s VR or AR - there’s plenty of opportunities to gift them something they can really enjoy and apply to their everyday hobby of choice.  

  • A VR headset
  • Gaming headphones
  • Gaming-themed shirts and clothing
  • A gift card to a gaming market
  • A gamer chair
  • More controllers

For the Fitness Lover

For the Fitness Lover

They’re never not in beast mode, never not moving and never not looking their best. That’s the fitness lover in the family! They’re dedicated to pushing their body to the limits and are here to live their best life. They always have a big bottle or a gallon of water nearby and practically live in their sneakers and activewear because they’re either going to or coming from the gym. Gift the fitness warrior in your family with something they’ll love! Here are some gift ideas that would be perfect for them:  

  • Matching sports bra and leggings set

  • A pair of cute, form-fitting and printed biker shorts
  • A membership to a fitness class subscription
  • Equipment! Free weights, dumbbells, kettlebells, mats, jump ropes, resistance bands, ab rollers, or ankle weights

  • New gym sneakers 
  • A UV light self-cleaning water bottle 
  • A jumbo, gallon water bottle with a handle and measurements 

For the Artist and Musician

For the Artist and Musician

Whether it’s the recording arts of the visual arts, we’ve all got creatives in the family. Investing in their art is a much more impactful way of showing them you love them and support what they do.

For the Foodie and Mixologist

The family or friend who is either a bartender, used to be one, or is always mixing up a crazy cocktail at the family gatherings - there’s so many great gifts out there for them! And of course, we can’t forget about that cousin, aunt or uncle who is the unofficial food critic of the family; they have a wine pairing for every dish and compare every flavor to that time they dined at a Michelin-star-rated restaurant. Here are some great gift ideas for them:  

  • Bar tools like shakers, strainers and muddlers
