Christmas season is officially here, which means it is that time of the year again when we whip out our annual holiday gift list. Usually, this is when foot traffic starts to crowd the malls as people start to check off all their Christmas shopping—but this year’s pandemic holiday sure does require a bit of adjustment. To make things easier for you, Brandmaximizers came up with a holiday gift list that is fitting for the COVID-19 situation.
Gifts for Loved Ones
1. Indoor Plants
Anyone in touch with social media knows just how big indoor plants have become in the last couple of months. Not only does it add a bit of life into our homes, but they are also good mood boosters because of their calming effect on our surroundings. Not only that, but some plants are also good for cleaning the air, which is perfect for preventing the dangerous effects of indoor air pollution.
2. Books
People may be restricted to go outside right now, but that doesn’t mean your imagination can’t go to places. One of the best ways to curb that loneliness is to bury yourself in a good book for a quick but meaningful literary escape. Not into reading? Another option is to buy a subscription on an online skill-sharing platform where you can brush up your craft or learn new skills.
3. Card Game
Can you really call it a good holiday without a night of doing card games with your family? Get yourself a really interesting one (board games are also a good option) and dedicate a time just entertaining your loved ones with continuous rounds of them. They’re a lot better than taking the risk of going outside for some holiday cheer.
Gifts for Your Business
Anyone who owns a business or works for one knows just how much the COVID-19 pandemic has changed everything. Here’s a list of the best gifts that you can buy for your business to make their pandemic holiday a little bit brighter and safer.
1. Face Masks and Face Shields
What’s a better gift to give than something that can really be used by someone? Sure, there is nothing romantic about face masks and face shields, but they are also the top necessities now during the new normal. Besides, nothing sends the message of you being mindful of others’ safety than giving them the basic tools they need to keep safe. Add these to your holiday basket if you’re planning to distribute one!
2. Digital Humidifier
Upgrade your office’s holiday feels and safety levels with a high-quality Digital Humidifier. With the pandemic climate still at its peak, it’s best to be a little bit more creative when thinking of your holiday efforts. Having a digital humidifier can help your customers and visitors have a better experience when visiting your store or office by keeping the right level of humidity in the air. You can even add aromatherapy oils to them to make the experience better.
3. UV Sterilization Box
Give your employees the gift of safety by adding this COVID-19 must-have in your office or even in your home! More and more businesses have been allowed to resume operations lately, and with that comes higher concerns about how to keep workers safe while reporting to their duties. A UV Sterilization Box is the perfect add on to your safety tools, regardless of what industry you are in.
4. Wallmount Air Purifier and Nano Mist Spray
While everyone is still encouraged to stay at home, business owners should still consider the possibility of receiving more foot traffic into their physical stores as Christmas comes closer. To make sure that you provide a safe experience to everyone, invest in additional tools like Wallmount Air Purifiers and Nano Mist Sprays that can make disinfection easier in your area. They can also help a lot in taking off manual loads of cleaning from your employees, letting them focus more on taking care of your clients.
Holiday Corporate Cheer
Distributing corporate gifts is a must-do for any business manager. Make your Christmas treats a little bit more meaningful this year with these items perfect for the holiday pandemic.
1. Mini Projector
Cinemas have been shut down for months so your corporate partner will appreciate it a lot if you give them a mini projector that can help mimic the experience in their own home. It’s a great item that will surely upgrade their holiday streaming nights altogether.
2. Cocktail Kit
Going to holiday parties is still discouraged at present so a cocktail kit is a perfect gift that can upgrade anyone’s home celebration. Curating a basket of the best local brews is also a good alternative for casual drinkers.
3. Baked Goods
Make someone’s Christmas spread a little extra special by sending them a box of their favorite baked goods. If you want to make your contribution more meaningful, you can even order these treats from local businesses in your community.
