Christmas Shopping

[IContainMultitudes]

Has anyone here bought any Christmas presents for friends or family members yet? I haven't done much yet, just a little bit for my 2-year-old nephew. So far, I've gotten him a couple of books (two children's books about Dewey the Library Cat) and a deck of these matching game cards featuring "underappreciated animals":

These are heavily-discounted due to being misprinted slightly (just on the backs, the artwork of the animals is fine):

Here's a possible suggestion for something a little out of the ordinary for that those who have children (whether on the spectrum or not) might be interested in:

I've gotten my holiday shopping done for the most part, really. I just need to pick up a gift card for my brother. I'm thinking of possibly getting ones for my parents too, but . . . they're pretty content with greeting cards. They'd probably be irritated if I spent money on them anyway.

What I have bought:

Three kimono-shaped origami pins from Kyoto Kimono and a ponytail holder made from recycled kimono fabric (Etsy's Tomo and Edie) .

I'm making my boyfriend's present myself.

Not yet.

I thought the best Christmas gifts are vouchers for national parks and the likes. I would love to experience nature at its fullest.

Done here for the most part. Only person I buy big for is my wife (dslr camera this year), and then the immediate family draws names so I'll have to get a sibling something after thanksgiving (when they draw). It's a $50 cap and usually just order something online as I refuse to go to most retail places between thanksgiving and about a week after New Years.
