Gift Guide | Top Tips For Sustainable Gifting

We'll leave you with this...our top tips for making this silly season as sustainable as possible, all while making your family smile.

Top Tips:

  • Buy second hand - especially for younger bubs. Op-shopping or thrift sites like Facebook Marketplace are great options to grab a bargain. If you're looking for clothes for little ones who will grow out of them quickly, opting for second hand is sustainable AND budget-savvy.

  • Choose consumables or arts and crafts. Gifting an activity is a great way to increase quality family time, and decrease clutter. Win-win!

  • Experiences are a great option for adventurous pre-teens and older. Who knows, your gift could inspire a life-long learning journey or new hobby!


  • For those with toddlers and pre-schoolers, try this top tip for navigating the Christmas shopping spree: if your child refuses to put that plastic toy back on the shelf, instead of a hard no - take a photo of your child with the toy. You can save them up for Christmas gift ideas for family and friends, or look through the photos together so they can choose something they really like - without the pressure of impulse buying!!
