9. And a board game book that'll blend in with their color-coded, A-type bookshelf seamlessly. Candyland just got so much cooler.
Looking for a version of your favorite game? WS Game Company has a great selection of these brilliant "books!"
Promising review: "These have adorable vintage designs! Sturdy pieces. The board is ripping a bit but we’ve played this dozens of times with our toddler so I suppose that’s expected. Definitely more pricey than the cheap version you could get for $10 at any big store but honestly it’s worth it to me. It lasts so much longer and it's easier to store. Having it in our front room on the bookshelf makes it easily accessible and blends in with our other books." —Spooky Hobbit

In total, the game takes about 20–45 minutes to play. It's suitable for 2–6 players at ages 10 and up.
Promising review: "We just played our first game tonight with some friends and it was so much fun! Highly recommend for anyone looking to add a cute but engaging dynamic into their game nights. We wanted to play our cards just so we could brag on the cute creatures we got! Super fun concept and beautifully pulled together. 10/10" —Ariel R.

30. A jerky bouquet to give fun-loving folks who will enjoy telling the story about the time they got a *meat bouquet* for the rest of their lives.
31. A cast iron pot that'll be a welcome addition to anyone's kitchen — this thing is designed to make any meal a masterpiece that His Holiness, Guy Fieri, would applaud.
32. An avocado pit planter so they can grow their own avocado plant if they don't have a yard but gardening is in their roots.
I own this! I have mine hanging in my kitchen windowsill. I've had it for ages and like the design for several things. I've successfully grown plants from avocado pits and I'm currently using it to regrow green onions. I buy green onions, chop up what I need for a recipe, throw the rest into this planter with water, and watch my green onions grow for future meals. It's great!
Promising review: "I am absolutely obsessed with this vase. I had been searching a long time for bigger vases with a narrow neck to grow my avocado plant, and this was exactly what I needed! The bottom is nice and wide, and allows so much room for root growth. The glass is not real glass, it seems like it’s some type of high quality plastic. But it still looks very nice!" —Alysia

Promising review: "I’ve tried all kinds of different bags and these are my absolute favorite. I originally received a set of bags from Baggu about 5-7 years ago and they quickly became my go to. Super strong, I can load these bags up with stuff without worrying. Easy to clean and store away. Just purchased a set of three large bags and another matching set of the smaller size bags. Love them!!!!" —Jaqueline

Sure, the holidays aren't a competition. But you're still about to win.
