#MySeriouslyFunChristmas How To Choose The Perfect Christmas Present

This year we have created a #SeriouslyFunChristmas Gift Guide to help you find the perfect gift for your parents/grandparents, friends, family, colleagues, your secret santa and for the little ones. We have 1000's and 1000’s of products to ensure you have the perfect gift for everyone this Christmas. In a rush for the last minute gift? Do you need a gift quickly? Let’s rush you to the last minute Christmas rush gift guide. Step 1 Brainstorm Make a list of all the things that a person likes or is interested in. Make this list as long as possible. You won’t have to buy all the gifts but this will help you discover the ultimate Christmas gift or hobby. Here are some brainstorming ideas to get you started:
  • Are they speed enthusiasts?
  • Are they master craftsmen?
  • Are they more of a thrill seeker?
  • Do they love working with their hands and tools?
  • Are they more of a Lego fan?
  • Has lockdown turned them into a puzzler? Are they interested in model aircraft and planes?
  • Do they love getting outdoors or would they prefer a board game night?
  • What’s their favorite TV show or Movie? Do they love Star Wars, Harry Potter, Batman, Pokemon or Dragon Ball Z?
  • Do they love Anime and/or Gundam?
  • Do they love Puppies? Are they World War buffs?
  • Do they love their collectables or would they prefer model kits?
  • Do they love Christmas as much as we do?
Step 2 Who is the Christmas Present for? One of the most important steps in determining the perfect gift for someone is the purchase situation. Who is the Christmas Gift for? You need to ensure that the gift is safe, meaningful and appropriate for the person who you are buying for. Don’t forget their situation either. For example, do you want to buy a board game for a family of 4 or something more suitable for 2 players? Think about personality! If the family or a person within the family is an introvert, games like Charades may not be the best option. Friends Buying a Christmas present for friends can be difficult or very easy as you may share common interests and hobbies or have a general idea of what they are interested in. Either way it is important that you show you care and that you have put some meaningful thought behind the gift. The gift could be nostalgic or something you both love. Gifts can be chosen from a variety of types including Model Kits, Model Planes & Rail, Collectables, Puzzles, Star Wars, Harry Potter, Anime or Gundam. Check out our gift guide for Kidults. Grandparents or Parents When purchasing for your Grandparent or Parent, you need an appropriate gift that provides traditional and nostalgic fun. This could include our 1000’s of Collectables, Model kits, Model rail, Puzzles, Aircraft, Spaceships, Tanks, Ships, board games or Strategic Games. Remember to be thoughtful and considerate when choosing their gifts. It helps to be sentimental when buying gifts for your grandparents and parents. Family When trying to select the perfect gift for a family member or for someone in a family group it is important that you don’t exclude people from the #SeriousFun. This could be done by not factoring the age, difficulty level and number of people in the family. Some games and activities have limited amounts of users and have age restrictions. Think about the interests and activities of the family: do they like the outdoors or prefer inside activities? Do they love racing or building? Kids Are you purchasing a Christmas gift for kids? Age is one of the most important and difficult factors when purchasing a gift for a little one and or their family. You want to make sure the gift is safe, appropriate and not too difficult for the age group. We have made this easy for you by breaking down the products suitable for Ages 1 ½+ to 12+. Check out our little ones/kids Christmas Gift Guide Blog and Gift Ideas for the little ones/kids Blog. Colleagues If they are work colleagues, the gift has to be appropriate but still fun enough to be talked about in the office, in person or online. Gifts for colleagues are perfect for when you want to build a friendship or to strengthen your position at work. Alternatively, you simply care about your colleague and want to thank them as the workplace is a better place when they are around. Colleague gifts are a thoughtful thank you present for the end of the working year. Secret Santa Is it a present for a Secret Santa? Secret Santa’s are a great Christmas tradition that provides plenty of excitement and fun! A perfect gift for a Secret Santa is one that matches the person's interest but does not break the bank and is the perfect little gift that is not tacky or too cheap. Check out our Secret Santa Blog for some helpful tips. Stocking Fillers Hanging up a stocking is an iconic Christmas tradition that is perfect for decorating your home and getting into the spirit of Christmas. Often it can be hard to fill your stockings without overloading them with big presents that could tear, stretch or ruin your stocking. We have perfect stocking fillers for you this Christmas and some great tips to save money, protect your stocking, and save you time and effort on wrapping. Check out our Stocking Filler Blog to learn more. Step 3 Consider your budget Budget consideration is a must when buying a Christmas gift whether it’s a small affordable gift or you are spoiling your friends and family this Christmas. We have broken down our price range to make your Christmas shopping easier this year. Even though price is a factor in every gift, thought and consideration always goes a long way in purchasing the right gift. Step 4 Hobbyco Team recommendation Ask a team member to recommend a gift in store if you are still having trouble deciding. Step 5 (Optional) Gift Card Still having trouble deciding what gift or hobby to choose from? What about Gift cards? Gift Cards provide the opportunity for friends or family to choose their own present based on their personal and family circumstances. Gift cards can often be perceived as impersonal, however a unique gift card that is not from a large outlet provides a personal and caring touch, demonstrating the gift buyer has put some thought and care into the Christmas gift. When purchasing a gift, it is important to think about their passion, their interest and what they love to ensure you choose the perfect gift. Happy shopping this Christmas! From all of us at Hobbyco, we wish you a safe and Merry Christmas. #MySeriouslyFun Christmas If you have any questions please message us on Facebook or call us on 02 9286 7300.
