Christmas Gift Ideas for Christian Women & Kids
It’s Christmastime, and I’m so excited to share the things our family genuinely uses and loves every day! Instead of a wish list, here are the gifts from past years that have stood the test of time in our home.
Each of these ideas makes thoughtful gifts for women and their families — practical, meaningful, and well-loved in our home. Below are mine and my kids top used items.
Gifts For Her:
These are 11 items I use regularly and truly love! Whether you’re shopping for a friend, a Classical Conversations tutor, or looking for meaningful gifts, I know these will bless her!
1. Dazzle Dry Nail Polish
This is a non-toxic nail polish that lasts 7+ days! My favorite part is that you can paint your nails in under 10 minutes and then tackle anything on your to-do list right away. They dry in about 5 minutes and become rock-hard. Once you try it, you’ll be hooked! I recommend a mini kit to get started and trying their mini flight colors to find what you like.

2. Bibles
These are three of my top favorite Bibles:
The ESV Journaling Bible is wonderful because the pages are thick enough to write in and the margins give you plenty of room for notes. I love the ESV translation for deeper, word-for-word Bible study.
I also have two CSB Bibles and love how they read! If you want to read the Bible chronologically, the one below is great because it’s organized with a reading plan and the books and chapters are arranged in chronological order. It also includes thoughtful questions and helpful context for your reading.
The She Reads Truth Bible is beautiful, with lovely hand-lettering throughout. The pages are thinner, so it’s not ideal for writing, but it does include meaningful devotions within the chapters.
If you gift someone a new Bible, pair it with Bible tabs to help them stay organized!

3. Mr. Pen Bible Highlighters
4. Mugs from Her Hearts Co
I love treating myself to one of Allison's beautiful hand-crafted mugs. I've added to my collection through the years and they are now the only mugs displayed on my counter. They have encouraging phrases and are just beautiful. She's a small shop owner and homeschool mom, so I love supporting her. If you can snag a mug that's made by Acorn Pottery in her shop, those are my favorite ones because the shape is just perfect!

5. Crossbody Bible Bag by Ever, AJ
This is the prettiest Bible bag I have owned. My favorite part is that it looks like a purse and functions as a purse. This is all you need to bring with you to church. Its floral interior design is adorable!

6. Nespresso Machine
This is the best coffee machine in my opinion! We've had one for 6+ years and it's our favorite treat for ourselves. You really can't go back to drip coffee once you try a Nespresso. My favorite pods are the vanilla flavored. I love this so much I even had my husband bring it camping with us—it was the best!

7. Cozy Confidence Heatless Curls
I was hesitant to try heatless curlers and was even more surprised to find out these truly work! I use them all the time! I prefer the plush size now, but I own the regular as well. I recommend grabbing the bundle set to get started. I get the best results when I put a little mousse in my fully dry hair before wrapping at bedtime. I also love to use these to keep my fresh "curling iron" curls in tact through the week.

8. Sweatshirts
I literally live in our fleece sweatshirts all season long. They are so cozy, and I love that when I wear them I am proclaiming gospel truths to those around me!

9. Bible Study & Notebook
What better gift than to gift a friend a Bible study to encourage her in her walk with the Lord, her family, and her marriage? Our In Her Shoes study is our best-seller and would make a wonderful gift for a Christian woman to help her dig into the Word. Pair it with our Bible Study Notebook and matching Magnetic Bookmarks!

10. Christian Candles by Jars of Joy LLC
These are non-toxic candles that are made to help you spread the gospel with friends and family. You can customize the labels to have a person's name on it or a special Bible verse. I love the scents too and I don't get headaches when burning them.

11. Wearable Blanket Robe
You might laugh at this being on the list, but I use it all the time! In fact, every person in our family has one haha. They are so cozy and perfect for winter.

Gifts For Kids:
These are 10 items my kids have used year after year. They won't be donated or trashed by summer, I promise! Many pair beautifully with your list of gifts for moms if you want to bless the whole family this Christmas.
1. Picasso Magnetic Tiles
I own both the name brand Magna Tiles and Picasso and you really can't tell the difference. Therefore, I opt for the cost savings version, Picasso. My kids use these all the time!

2. Yoto Mini + Headphones
I got these for the kids last Christmas and they absolutely love them. These are audio book players without internet access. It's a pricier purchase, but it has been well worth it. My kids are 10, 7, and 4. The four year old doesn't use it as much as the 10 and 7 year old. We also make our own Yoto cards, and I have an entire blog to help you do that (read here). You'll want headphones and a case if you are gifting to multiple kids so they can easily identify their player. I'll link them all below.

3. Huggy Hymns
These are the sweetest gifts! These are the softest stuffed animals that have a hymn music box included. My kids have learned 5 hymns by listening to this every night while falling asleep. My daughter especially has become very fond of her lamb and it has to be with her every night. I love that as she falls asleep, she is listening to wonderful truths about the Lord. These make great gifts for young children!

4. GloriLight Night- Light
This is another sweet gift that points our kids to God's Word. This is a night-light that projects Bible verses onto the ceiling. This helps your child meditate and memorize God's Word as they fall asleep. The pictures slowly rotate on the ceiling. My kids love to wake up and tell me what verse they memorized while falling asleep.

5. Owala Waterbottle
I know these are all the rage right now with the kids, and mine sure love theirs! They come in a lot of fun colors to choose from. I also like that it fits in standard cup holders and is easy to carry.

6. Jumbo Floor Puzzles
This gift is for kids ages five and under. These are great puzzles because they are sturdy, large pieces, and are not overwhelming for little ones to do on their own. My 4-year-old can build these 48 piece puzzles by himself. I'll link a few of my favorites.

7. Alcohol Markers
These are so fun because they provide a variety of colors and make pictures much more vibrant! They do bleed, so you want to make sure the kids double the paper and only responsible artists get to use them.

8. LeapFrog Globe
This is fun and practical for homeschool. This was gifted to use probably 5 years ago and my kids love playing with it. It has fun facts about geographical locations, videos, and quizzes. It's very interactive.

9. Wooden Train Set
I think every child needs a wooden train set. The more pieces the better so they can build bigger creations. Here is a set that we have.

10. Wearable Blanket for Kids
Last but not least, a wearable blanket for kids! We got all 3 kids one last Christmas and they wear them all the time.
