Why should you give personalized gifts? 

Every year when my birthday or Christmas rolls around, I get added for my dreaded wish list. Dreaded because I hate putting together a list of things that people can buy from with absolutely no thought involved.

Because honestly at the end of the day, I can buy all of those things (and often do) myself. I personally prefer gifts that are personalized, intentional, and have real thought behind them.

I’d prefer a thought out date (or something like this date night deck) to a gift card for me to go out. And I’d love to get a necklace personalized with my boys’ initials over a gift card to pick out my own. 

For me, the best gifts are the ones with thought behind them because at the end of the day, I want to know that you were thinking about me when you picked out the gift, not just thinking you needed to cross me off your checklist. There’s a reason I’m giving my kiddo this monthly activity box.

I try to keep that in mind when I’m picking out gifts for my own family and friends. Let’s be honest, sometimes I end up getting a gift card or gift off a list because, well we all do at some point. But when I can, I try my best to make personalized gifts as much as possible. 

Personalized Gifts for Kids

To help you out with making this holiday season a more meaningful one for everyone involved, I’ve put together a list of 25 of my favorite personalized gifts for kids – all ones you can make with a Cricut Explore Air 2. 

And many of these personalized gifts could easily be made for teens, adults, or even grandparents! I personally just went the kids route because that’s who I’m shopping for the most these days! 

And when you’re shopping for gifts for 10 year old boys, you go with the easy route!

Sea life themed Themed cards to go with personalized gifts for kids
Monthly Adventure Box
This monthly adventure box is the gift I’m personally giving my son for next year. It’s a box filled with 12 envelopes – one for each month of the year. Inside each envelope is everything we need for an adventure that month – gift cards, activities, and a theme! It’s personalized for my kiddo and could easily be personalized for kids, grandkids, or even a significant other!

Water bottles make great personalized gifts for kids
Personalized Water Bottles
While a water bottle may not seem like an exciting gift, a personalized water bottle is! Or at least it is to my 6-year-old son who loves anything that’s just for him. These personalized water bottles are super easy to make and would be a great filler for a stocking or to go with another small gift! Or you could even put some money or a gift card inside – they’re the perfect size for it!

Personalized Pajamas for Kids
Our family always opens new Christmas pajamas on Christmas Eve. These personalized Star Wars pajamas would make the perfect gift for a Star Wars fan! You could totally do the same thing with other Cricut heat transfer vinyl – they have all sorts of designs from Marvel to Star Wars and even Disney princesses!

Monogram gloves and mittens make great personalized gifts for kids
Monogrammed Gloves and Scarf
Live somewhere it’s cold outside? Add a monogram to a cheap set of gloves and a scarf to turn it from a cheap gift to a neat gift! Little girls will love having their own personalized items to keep them warm and bonus, hopefully they’ll be less likely to lose it than a standard pair of gloves!

Personalized Stuffed Animals
What kid doesn’t love stuffed animals? My 6-year-old has an entire bed full of them! Make a standard stuffed animal even better by putting either their name on it or the name of the stuffed animal on it. Makes the stuffed animal that much sweeter!

A journal makes one of the best personalized gifts for kids
Personalized Journal for Kids
Whether you put a quote from your kid’s favorite movie, a line from their favorite song, their name – or maybe all of the above on the front of this journal, it’s a great way to show that you believe in them and want them to write down all their dreams! I used to write in a journal all the time when I was a kid, and I would have loved to get one as nice as this that was made just for me instead of using the plain spiral notebooks from the store.

Personalized Mermaid Makeup Holder
While this is holding makeup brushes, you could totally switch this Little Mermaid inspired gift up and have it hold hair brushes, barrettes, a toothbrush – you name it.
