Best Christmas Presents - Ideas for the Best Gifts

The best Christmas presents are the ones that the gift giver has really put a lot of thought into by considering the wants or needs of the recipient.

Don't give your best friend something you want; give her what you think she'll want! Personally, I love to receive gift cards so that I can buy exactly what I want, but that's just me.

The best Christmas present for a beer-loving guy could be a membership in the Beer of the Month Club. You can opt for a 3, 6 or 12-month subscription or a Beer of the Season club which sends the latest selections every season of the year. These beers are specialty microbrews that are hard to find from regional breweries across the country. He'll enjoy sharing and rating them with his friends, and appreciate your thoughtful gift.

Does someone you know have a box full of ticket stubs from concerts, sports events or shows that they've been to? You could buy them a Ticket Stub Diary which has clear pockets that will accept tickets of many different sizes, and acid-free margins with spaces large enough for them to write down their memory of the occasion. This would make an unusual and welcome gift.

The best Christmas present for an avid reader would be an electronic reader to which you have already uploaded one or two books by their favorite authors, and perhaps a subscription to a daily newspaper. These electronic readers are ideal for travel, for those whose eyesight isn't as good as it used to be, and even for children who are reluctant to read - having the latest technology might introduce them to the joy of reading.

If you have someone on your Christmas list that simply has to have music wherever they go, then the iPod Nano might be the best Christmas present you could give them. It's smaller by far than the old version, and of course you would load it with their favorite music before gift wrapping it!

Personalized items are always welcome at Christmas - and there are so many of them to choose from. You could buy a personalized chef's apron and cutting board for your favorite cook; a tub cooler for beer and soda for summer barbecues; baby items for the little ones on your list; and even a baseball bat that can be personalized for your Little Leaguer.

Some of the best Christmas presents are those that enable you to fulfill a lifelong wish for the recipient. Has your Dad (or Mom) always wanted to drive a race car and speed around a track like the pros? You can choose from Indy cars, NASCAR or exotic cars - simply check online for a location near to where they live.

Or would a hot air balloon ride be the adventure they're looking for? Some people dream about swimming with dolphins, but if that's not possible, then maybe you could arrange for them to adopt a dolphin at the Dolphin Research Center. All of those wishes can be accomplished if you do your research and can find a convenient location that isn't too far from the recipient's home.

For the lady in your life who deserves a little luxury, any gift made from cashmere would surely be welcome. You can choose from cashmere robes, scarves and shawls in a variety of colors and prices. If she loves to collect jewelry, then a new jewelry box might be the best Christmas present you could give her. There are many options, from small traveling cases to large ones that will hold everything, and even a large jewelry armoire.

Of course we all know that the best Christmas present you can give is yourself, especially if you live far away from loved ones. Make the effort to join your family for Christmas and they won't care about tangible gifts!
