Groove Life Stackable Rings
You guys know how much we love silicone rings, especially for traveling. We have even featured Groove Life silicone rings on our blog and gift guides before, but this year they have come out with stackable rings that are super trendy, cute, and fun! I was sent some to try out and they have been so fun to wear over the last few months! I wore them on our two recent trips to Disneyland and to Hawaii as well as just wearing them around at home. I have the Harvest Moon set, the Leopard set, and the Unbridled set. I love that you can wear them on their own, or stack them for a different look. I also have enjoyed mixing and matching from my three sets to get even more fun and unique looks. The rings are super comfy and easy to wear. These would make a fantastic gift!
Solar Battery Charger
We often talk about battery chargers on our gift guides because they are so useful for ANY type of traveler. But this one is definitely one you should take a look at! In addition to being able to charge the battery by plugging it into the wall, it also charges by the sun! This would be especially good for the outdoor travelers in your life.
Trails Board Game
We haven’t played this game but it is on our list! It has beautiful artwork and looks like a fun game to play with your traveling friends.
Trekking the National Parks Game
Ben got this game last year for Christmas and it is super fun! You travel around the country and stop at various National Parks. You even get to learn some fun facts about the different parks you visit in the game. Definitely a fun game for families!
Travel Themed Books
Beautiful books are something that we love to have in our home. All of these books are beautiful to look at and are great reference books as well. These would be great for any traveler in your life, both adult and child, and there are tons of options to cater to the type of traveler. Maps was one of our first beautiful travel themed books. We actually found it when we were on a trip to London and I ended up getting it for Ben for Christmas that year. The authors have recently come out with Maps: Deluxe Edition which has updated information as well as 24 new maps. Last year I also got Ben The 50 States and 50 Adventures in the 50 States both of which have fun, beautiful illustrations and some great info about the Staes in our country. And finally, Subpar Parks just came out this summer. I am looking forward to checking out this book. It has some great facts about National Parks as well as beautiful illustrations and humorous descriptions of the National Parks taken from one star reviews.
National Parks Calendar
There are TONS of options for a National Parks calendar. This would be great for the outdoor traveler in your life for them to get a view of the beautiful outdoors while inside their home or office. There are some great options for photograph calendars as well as vintage travel poster inspired calendars that would all be great.
Travel Jewelry Case
I bought this for myself earlier this year after I was tired of trying to keep my jewelry contained and safe when we travel. This case is a great size and a great price. There are plenty of ring slots that I use for stud earrings. There are also 4 divided sections that are great for hoops, necklaces, or bracelets. These are removable so you can totally customize it to work with what you have. There are also some hooks and a small pouch to help keep necklaces contained and not tangled.
Hanging Toiletry Bag
If the traveler in your life already has a toiletry bag, they may want an upgrade to a hanging version. This is the one that I have and I absolutely LOVE it! It is the perfect size to hold everything I need. It has enough pockets to help organize things without being too micro organized that it is hard to find things. And the biggest pocket is actually big enough (without being too big) to hold all of my travel liquids as well as more supplies.
Boogie Board Drawing Board
This is a great gift for the kid in your life who travels. I got this for Lucy when it was on sale for Prime Day earlier this year and I held onto it for our big trips this fall. She drew on it for HOURS on our way to Disneyland this fall and she also loved playing with it when we were in Hawaii as something to do in the mornings when we were adjusting to the time change 😂 They don’t take up much room, don’t run on batteries or wifi, and they are just so fun! This one is especially fun because it has 4 different drawing tools that each can do multiple things on the Boogie Board to produce lots of fun patterns and drawings.
Hydration Bladder Cleaning Kit
Ben has had his hydration pack for over 5 years! It has been a great gift and we use it multiple times each summer. Last year for Christmas I gave him a hydration bladder cleaning kit and it has been so nice! It makes cleaning and drying the hydration bladders so much easier. We will definitely need to get a few more sets so we can easily clean my pack and Lucy’s.
You can also see our gift guides from 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020. We also have stocking stuffer guides from 2019 and 2020. AND we also have a post with some of our favorite camping supplies that would also make great gifts!
