It’s easy to become so busy shopping for holiday gifts that we forget the reason for the season: goodwill, generosity, and love.
A holiday gift guide can help you stop stressing over what to buy or how to afford the perfect gift for everyone on your list.
For instance, if you know anyone who’s had a baby this year, you may not want to buy them yet another item for the baby. Practical gifts are your best bet for those parents who already have all the baby necessities.

Although it can be stressful finding an affordable gift that you think your loved one will actually use, try to remember one crucial fact:
The holidays are less about presents than they are about presence.
The new parents in your life — and anyone else on your gift list for that matter — will surely appreciate spending time with you this year. Enjoy the moments together and show them you care.
Beyond that, any gifts you give will be frosting on the gingerbread cake.
