10 Christmas Gift Ideas For Brothers
Buying Christmas gifts for the family is never an easy task, especially if you’re trying to get Christmas gift ideas for brothers. The best presents tap into nostalgia and say something about the person on the other end, so have a bit of fun and get creative. Need some inspiration? Here’s 10 amazing Christmas gift ideas for brothers.
1. Posters
Film, TV, music, art, memes, gaming, YouTube, books… You name it. You can put anything on a poster, making it the easiest gift idea for your brother this Christmas. Sites like Redbubble, and Etsy sell limited edition prints of illustrations, graphics and independent artworks. You can also personalise your purchase to make it extra special.
2. Silly toys
Odd toys like Lego, fidget spinners, Bey Blades (major throwback), and Pokemon cards are the equivalent of girls’ Groovy Chick, Polly Pocket, or Bratz. These will transport your brother back to his childhood days and trigger the kind of nostalgic memories everyone wants on Christmas day.
3. Woollen items
This may sound silly but socks, scarves, and gloves are the kinds of wardrobe essentials boys don’t buy for themselves. These require very little thought for the present giver, but provide very important comfort for the present receiver. Socks and scarves are items normally bought for your bro by your mum, so be a good samaritan this Christmas and save her a little bit of dosh by keeping your brother warm.
4. Gadget Man
Keep your brother occupied with a Christmas gift that’ll get his hands working. Small, random gadgets are the perfect stocking filler and an affordable answer to a clueless sister’s search for the perfect boyish present.
5. Remote control things
For some reason, steering a small electric vehicle across many different terrain provides hours of endless fun – even better if it flies. Adding speed to the mix gets brothers super excited. *shrugging emoji*
These can be quite expensive, so if you have other siblings, get them to pitch in.
6. Skalectrics
Skalectrics are timeless. These are the perfect gift for a family on Christmas day, as everyone can get involved.
7. Sweets
There’s no shortage of sweet-treat gifts at Christmas time. Jump on the indulgence bandwagon and wrap up insane amounts of chocolate just for the sake of it.
8. If in doubt, vouchers
Look at the labels of their t-shirts to find their favourite brand of clothing. Alternatively, vouchers for Netflix, Xbox Live, iTunes, Spotify, music stores, Starbucks, game stores, hiking stores. Supermarkets even do vouchers now, so get them a £20 Tesco voucher and you’ve paid for their next two weeks of food shopping!
9. If still in doubt, money
Who doesn’t want some extra dosh at Christmas?
10. If you still have no clue, just get them alcohol
Whisky is always a good shout. Stick to Scottish brands for guaranteed quality; or try a couple Japanese brands for something a little different.
