We adore gifts that everyone can share. These are the best gifts for the whole family!
It’s not always necessary to buy for each member of the family—yours or those you love. There are so many goodies out there that everybody will appreciate, as long as you know where to look. Actually, you can just look here! We’ve put together a guide to the best gifts for the whole family. These are the goodies that the crew can share, play, with, learn, and enjoy together. Plus, as a bonus, it makes your holiday shopping so much easier.
Not only will every member of the crew appreciate them, but many of these bring everyone together. From classes to games to art and more, encouraging family time is the ultimate goal of all of our picks. These gifts for the whole family will definitely remind us all what’s really important this season, and are sure to be enjoyed beyond just the holidays. That’s at least two gifts in one, right? What a win for the most wonderful time of the year!
Family Cooking Class
Sur La Table has always been great for gift-giving, and this year we're also loving their offering of cooking classes! This Pizza & Calzone class is designed for the whole family with kiddos 7+.
The entire family will love—and get to be included in!— a professionally painted portrait from Paint Your Life! Select the painting technique you'd like used (oil, charcoal, watercolor, and more!), choose an artist from Paint Your Life's team of talent, and upload the photo you’d like used. You can even upload multiple photos to be combined into one portrait!
We're just swooning over these placemats from Letterfolk! Personalize them with the included tiles, and even add more tile sets for additional color options for extra customization options. Tinybeans Exclusive: Take 15% off sitewide with code TINY15! Valid through 12/31.
Babies and kiddos require a lot of stuff. Like, a lot. So when holiday traveling comes along, all of that gear has to come along, too. Unless they use BabyQuip! BabyQuip is the baby gear rental service that delivers everything from strollers to cribs to car seats and toys right to your destination (including hotels, Airbnb, private residences, and more!), sets them up for you, then picks it all up when you're done. You'll be giving them the gift of ease for the entire family, no matter where they are!
Where has this been all our lives? This stroller wagon accommodates 1 or 2 kiddos up to 5 years old and transforms from a stroller to a wagon with the flip of the handle! Parents can choose to push or pull the Pivot Xplore and can even add a toddler seat or car seat adaptors (sold separately) for the ultimate in versatility for everybody in the family!
You don't have to camp out to eat like you are! This electric s'mores maker turns your house into a campsite (safely!). Gather the whole family and dig in.
Start Family Night off on the right foot with a choose-your-own-adventure tile from this family night jar, complete with personalized lid from LGWdesign!
The family that sings together...okay, so we can't find the perfect rhyme, but what brings the group together faster than karaoke? Works with your favorite karaoke app or YouTube videos!
Turn any space into a movie theater! Project movies, video games, and photos up to 150" with 2 HDMI connections and Bluetooth capabilities. Family movie night has never been so fun.
There's more than just bragging rights at stake; each team must pick a wager before the game can begin. What are you willing to do if you lose? Wash the dishes? Treat the other side to movie night? Pick your bet and then take turns answering trivia questions correctly (kid-friendly!) and see who gets crowned the winner.
Quotebooks were born from a husband and wife team who liked to write down funny things they said to each other, and as their family grew, they added their kids' words, too! Create your own keepsake book, authored by your family.
Re-create the iconic Brady Bunch opening credits with your own bunch! Lots of options available for customizing from BestiesHouseOfGifts, as well as three blanket sizes.
The perfect seasonal gift, you can personalize the color and text on this snowball bucket! Although the pictured snowballs aren't included, you can either fill them with actual snowballs, or with these fluffy plush snowballs.
