The 2017 Ultimate Holiday Gift Guide for Last Minute Shoppers

Tis’ the season for laughter, quality time with family & friends, and of course shopping. While others are fighting over discounted televisions on Black Friday, I am usually enjoying day naps due to an overload of turkey and my rigorous work schedule. I’m that girl you see in the mall on Christmas Eve with a laundry list of items I still need to buy for my loved ones. After seeing how crowded the stores are, it’s pretty obvious, I’m certainly not alone.

The second hardest thing about holiday shopping, is figuring out how to pick the perfect gift for the special people in your life. After googling several gift guides and spending way too much time and effort going from site to site, I decided to create the ultimate gift guide of my own, to provide my readers with some new and refreshing gift ideas for every person on your holiday gift list. Whether you’re looking for gift ideas for your mom or dad, significant other, kids & babies, boss/colleague, techies, beauty junkies, foodies, fitness enthusiasts, the fashion forward, fur babies (pets), gifts that give back, gift cards (people will actually be excited to use), gift sets, or just plain old stocking stuffers, this is the guide you’ve been waiting for.

So without further ado, drumroll pleeeeease (c) Chevy Chase

GIFTS THAT GIVE BACK

The Adventures of Noah’s Flying Car: Through China

This is a great book to add to your child’s library for so many reasons. It's a book written by a kid (Arden Pala, 8 Years Old) for kids. The project was funded by a non-profit called Kids4Community. The proceeds from the book sales will benefit the scholarship fund of Francis Parker School in San Diego. Author Arden Pala launched his new book series to help kids and his fellow peers learn about different cultures around the world and promote understanding of diversity. He came up with the idea while accompanying his parents on a business trip to China. The very first book in the series is titled The Adventures of Noah's Flying Car: Through China. Arden can’t wait to write his next book in the series, which he plans to write about his travels to Mexico, Turkey and various historical areas in the USA. He will have many more adventures to come with his flying car. Purchase the book for your kid and explore fun facts and information about China. Your child will learn about the country’s culture and historical sites. It also has many things kids love to read about like flying cars, siblings, hidden caves, ice cream and much, much, more. “This book is a perfect fit for your holiday season as 100 percent of all sales go to my school’s scholarship fund. This book also has lots of information and facts about China that are fun and cool to learn about. Thank you for taking the time to read my book, it means so much.

GIFTS FOR FUR BABIES

Playology

The key to a dog’s happiness is pretty simple – you, food and a good toy. And maybe more food. The problem with that is we wind up with some pretty chubby pets (over 50% of dogs in the US are overweight). After conducting extensive research on toy engagement and dog health in general PLAYOLOGY has tapped into this and a dog’s most powerful sense…. smell (10,000x’s more than a human). The science behind the toy is fascinating. Lo-tech, yet hi-tech at the same time. A tremendous amount of research has gone into the creation of these toys. A dog could really care less about the shape and color of a toy. Whereas most dog toys are dipped in a flavor, PLAYOLOGY is different. Featuring first-to-market “Encapsiscent Technology,” PLAYOLOGY infuses millions of micro-encapsulated scent beads that are popped with play, so each toy not only encourages longer-lasting engagement but an all-around healthier pup. A healthier, more engaged pup = happier. “My wife and I are dog parents ourselves, and given our professional experience in the pet industry, we could never understand why dog toys didn’t take advantage of how much dogs are attracted to scent. It took us three years to develop Encapsiscent Technology, but we - and our dogs Bluto and Mongo - couldn’t be more excited by how our Playology toys keep dogs happier and more engaged,” Adam Beatty, CEO and co-founder of Playology. Playology is available at PlayologyPets.com.

Dog Gone Breath

“Dog Gone Breath chewable tablets are the perfect gift for dogs – and for you! Our all-natural ingredients remedy the common causes of bad breath in dogs instead of masking it with mints or sprays. We all love kissing our furry babies and now we can do it and smile!” Founder of Dog Gone Breath, Jenna Fishoff. Dog Gone Breath launched a fabulous new dog breath remedy just this week. Bad breath in dogs occurs from many different causes. None of the causes indicates a healthy dog. Two of the most common parts of the body that causes Halitosis (the medical term used to describe a foul order coming from the mouth) in your pet come either from the mouth (Periodontal) or the gut (Gastrointestinal tract). Traditionally most products are aimed specifically at the owner’s pleasure by promoting a covering mechanism like a mint to try to mask the odor. This covering can be dangerous to your pet’s health. The foul order is like “Natures Fire Alarm”, alerting you that something is going on either in the mouth or the gut. Unlike all the “covering” products that are in the marketplace today, Dog Gone Breath all-natural chewable tablets and powder attack the oral and gastrointestinal root cause of your pets doggietosis by bio-targeting the issues, potentially eliminating the need for a visit to your vet. Dog Gone Breath ($19.99 - $34.99) is available exclusively at DogGoneBreath.com.
