Backyard Gift Ideas for Christmas

Backyard Gift Ideas for Christmas and New Years

Give your family the surprise of a lifetime on Christmas morning. Imagine their delight when 

they wake up and see that you have given them an amazing new gift. We have so many ideas for perfect Christmas gifts, let’s get into some of the favorites for this winter and beyond.

The Rise of Backyard Trampolines

Ever since the Covid lockdowns, families have been looking for home entertainment options that are: 

  • Affordable 
  • Easy to enjoy together 
  • Don’t involve screens
  • Increase physical activity 

Having a dedicated outdoor space with activities to engage family members of all ages is a game changer for family bonding and enjoyment of home life. Your kids will want to be home more, but won’t be staring at a phone or iPad the whole time. The adults can gather around in comfy lawn chairs and be the referees, or judges, or maybe even get in on the jumping! 

Why Outdoor Gifts are Perfect for the Holidays

An outdoor gift is a great reminder to gather the family and spend time together in nature - to rejuvenate and reconnect with each other in the coming year. Make lasting memories for years to come with a trampoline or one of our other backyard Christmas gift ideas. 

Unwrapping the Magic of In-Ground Trampolines

Your kids will jump for joy (literally!) if you get them a trampoline this year. In-ground trampolines will make mom and dad happy with their enhanced safety and low profile presence in the yard. 

Safety First with In-Ground Trampolines

The in-ground installation enhances safety by bringing the trampoline surface flush with the ground - so no climbing is needed to get on and off. 

One of the greatest advantages of in-ground trampolines is their superior safety. With no elevated edges, the risk of falling off is significantly reduced. Additionally, these trampolines are built to withstand various weather conditions, ensuring durability and longevity.

Easy Maintenance

In-ground installation means the trampoline is protected from a lot of harsh wind and stormy weather. Maintenance is minimal - just check the trampoline for wear and tear regularly to ensure it is ok to use. 

A Gift That Keeps Giving

The increased physical fitness, family bonding time, vitamin D from spending time outdoors are all great reasons to think about a trampoline for Christmas. 

Enhancing Backyard Ambiance with Lighting

Lighting up the night is another way to give an outdoor gift that is perfect for families and outdoor enthusiasts. Warm LED lanterns, solar powered string lights, and all other manner of backyard lighting options would make great gifts this year. Extend backyard gatherings into the evening with a fun lighting gift. 

Solar-Powered Beauty

Solar powered lights are hassle-free, they are especially great for smaller spaces or yards where there is not an electrical outlet nearby. From string lights to pathway markers, there are so many cool designs in solar powered backyard lights these days. 

LED Lanterns for Versatility

A portable LED lantern is easy to grab from the porch and take out to sit in the grass and watch the stars. Hang them from trees or place them as a centerpiece on a patio table to eat dinner in the yard. 

Fire Pits for Warmth and Togetherness

If you already have good yard lighting and really want to amp up the backyard coziness, you can’t go wrong with a firepit. Everyone will want to pull up a chair, roast marshmallows and hang out around a fire pit. 

Choosing the Right Fire Pit

Backyard size and space are two important considerations for a fire pit. Think about where you will put it - no overhanging branches or other obstructions that could be fire hazards. You will also want plenty of space around all sides for chairs and clearance to walk around. 

Safety Tips for Fire Pits

In addition to avoiding overhanging branches or other obstacles, you will also want to consider the surface where you are placing the firepit. Keep a fire extinguisher, sand, or water source nearby in case you ever need them. 

Making Memories Around the Fire

Sing holiday songs, stargaze, or just chat and unwind after a long day. Whatever you’re doing, a fire pit will make it more fun and memorable. 

Outdoor Kitchen Essentials for Foodies

If you have an outdoor chef in the family, any kind of cooking utensil or appliance is a great idea. Think portable grills, griddles, pizza ovens, or quality cookware and dining sets made for al fresco eating. 

Portable Grills for Flexibility

A portable grill is great for a small space or if you plan to use it for camping or other places in addition to the yard. They even make electric options that can be used at apartments! 

Pizza Ovens for Culinary Creativity

A pizza oven is the ultimate for backyard dining luxury. Everyone loves pizza! And homemade not only tastes better, it is also healthier, more affordable, and is a bonding experience to cook together. 

Quality Cookware for Outdoor Use

Quality spatulas, tongs, bbq aprons, and more are a great idea for the griller in your family. They will love having a sturdy new option - and you’ll get to enjoy more backyard grilled meals!
