A visit to Orlando is the big kid’s ultimate dream, with plenty of theme parks and places to visit that they’ll really enjoy. A trip can be a great gift, providing an experience instead of something material, and you’ll all be able to enjoy it together! Even if you don’t manage to get away during the holidays, it’s nice to have something to look forward to in the New Year.

And if it’s too late this year to save for a trip, why not plan it for next Christmas? You can start saving from January and make changes to your budget that will help you pay for your dream trip.

Something from his childhood

What did your other half enjoy as a child? From Star Wars to Lego, there are all kinds of gift ideas you can use to help them relive some of their favorite childhood memories. Take a look at games, memorabilia stores and even vintage clothing sellers to see if you can find something great. With a new Star Wars film coming out, as well as a big emphasis on all things retro, you’ll have plenty of choice to find something fun for your big kid!

Don’t forget, you can also go down the sentimental route and choose a gift that shows real memories from his life or your lives together. A photobook or video is a wonderful way to show you care, and something they can cherish forever.

Some new tech

Does your partner love technology? Well, you’ll be pleased to know that you are spoilt for choice with cool tech gifts this year. Simple gifts include ideas such as earbuds or other wireless headphones, while handheld games consoles are always a winner. You could even buy him tech that improves your home, with smart Lighting and home kits being a cool addition to your home! Just don’t let him get carried away with all of the Lighting schemes and colors, you don’t want your home to turn into a nightclub!

Another great idea is to buy him a subscription to a video-on-demand service. With new additions like Disney+ and Apple TV+, you’ve got a whole new load of content to enjoy. You can buy annual subscriptions as gifts which make them an easy gift that will last the year. You don’t even have to mention that it’s a gift for you too!

Cool new tools

Who doesn’t love to play with some new tools? The good thing about buying tools for your partner for Christmas is that they get the chance to try them out, and you get to get things done around the house. If there’s an ever-growing list of DIY jobs that need doing, then giving the big kid in the house some essential tools can finally help it get done. Just make sure you buy all of the right safety equipment too!

Buying Christmas gifts for your partner can be difficult, even when you know them inside out. But when your other half is a big kid at heart, it does become a little easier! There are a lot of ideas to choose from to suit both large and small budgets, helping you to choose something special this Christmas.
