Christmas

🎄 Christmas — the magical culmination of the year, a holiday that unites billions of people around the world in a shared spirit of warmth, generosity, and wonder! Did you know the tradition of decorating a Christmas tree came from 16th-century Germany and was brought to England by Prince Albert only in the 1840s? Santa Claus in a red suit is a relatively modern image popularized by Coca-Cola in the 1930s, though Saint Nicholas himself lived in the 4th century. An amazing fact: “Jingle Bells” was originally written for Thanksgiving, and the most expensive Christmas gift in history is the Statue of Liberty, given by France to the United States!

Gift ideas: Create heartfelt, personalized presents: a photo book of the year’s best moments, a named star on a sky map, an adventure subscription (cooking classes, a wine club, a book subscription).

• For loved ones: a smart-home assistant, a cashmere throw with initials, a hygge-evening kit, vintage vinyl records by favorite artists.
• For kids — not only toys, but experiences: tickets to the theater, a science museum, or a robotics workshop.
• Season trend — sustainable gifts: plants in beautiful planters, reusable alternatives to disposables, a charity donation in the recipient’s name.

Don’t forget the rule: “something needed, something for the soul, something to wear, and something to read”!
