Personalized Family Hobby Art is a gift that a family will surly treasure. This piece of personalized artwork showcases the individual personality of each family member. When you order, you have the option of choosing each persons hobby, skin tone, hair color, and clothing. You can even add the pets.
Catan Board Game
A board game makes a great family gift. We love family game night and are always looking for new games to play. My 10 year old son discovered the strategy game CATAN and put it on his Christmas list. I never heard of it before, but CATAN has been around since the 90s and has won multiple gaming awards. The CATAN 5th Edition and its expansion games are made in the USA.
Murbles Outdoor Game
Murbles is an outdoor game that is played with giant marble like balls, or Murbles. Murbles quickly became my family's favorite game of the summer! We love Murbles because it is easy enough for everyone to play, old and young alike. We kept Murbles in our car all summer so that the kiddos always had something to do no matter where we were- cookouts, grandma's house, the park. It's even fun to play at the beach and the balls float! We can't wait to play it in the snow!!
Hummingbird Glass Straws
Plastic straws are popular with kids of all ages, yet they are bad for the environment. I have found you can only re-use them a few times before the kiddos chew them up, and there are only so many craft project you can do with them until you have straw crafts taking over the house. Glass straws are the perfect solution, and they are sturdy and safe too! A set of Hummingbird Glass Straws make the perfect gift for the Eco-conscious family.
White Mountain Puzzles
White Mountain Puzzles have been made in New Hampshire for over 30 years. There are a variety of image themes and skill levels to choose from making a White Mountain Puzzle a perfect family gift choice. If the family you are buying for vacations around the US, White Mountain Puzzle has many state themed puzzles. When we are on vacation we buy a state themed puzzle of where we are and frame it when completed to hang on the wall in our family room.
Catan is one of our favorite games! We have a monthly game night with friends and this is one that we play often. I think games are a great gift. We all could use less screen time and more people time.
Thanks for the ideas!
Great post! I love the giving a present to a whole family. I usually just go with a board game but this list is chock-full of great ideas I will use!
