Holiday Gift Guide 2020: Curated Gifts from Women-Owned Businesses
By Melody Joy Paine, contributing writer
It’s a familiar scene. You walk into a store, or more likely shop online, and you are bombarded with choices and decisions that make your head spin.
A few hours later, you find something really cool at a small business that you didn’t know you needed. You buy it, yet you still haven’t made a dent with your holiday gifts. Indeed, buying gifts from women-owned businesses that are meaningful, thoughtful, and don’t add to the clutter can feel overwhelming.
So, we’re here to make 2020 just a little less stressful for you with a holiday gift guide filled with our favorite, unique gifts – all from female entrepreneurs.
Whether you are looking for kids yoga classes, family photography, or creative toys for children, we think you’ll find it in our Holiday Gift Guide 2020: Curated Gifts from Women-Owned Businesses.
Give the Gift of Experiences and Classes!
Kids Yoga Classes
Kids of all ages love yoga! And we may be biased, but we recommend Pretzel Kids yoga online classes. Besides, why not give your kids fun yoga classes rather than more stuff that they’ll grow tired of in a month? Check out virtual Pretzel Kids yoga classes here and find a class that your child will love!
Online Kids Yoga Certification
Talking about kids yoga classes, are you a mom who wants to start a yoga business for kids without worrying about all of the details of entrepreneurship? If so, add an online yoga teacher training course to your Christmas list for a yoga business-in-a-box for you – or someone you love! Visit Pretzel Kids yoga to learn more.
Music Classes
The gift of music lessons with Noteworthy Experiences goes beyond just learning an art form. Music provides a place for us to express ourselves freely in a way that we connect with others and to something deep within ourselves. For the young and old, novice and experienced artists, this is a gift that everyone can appreciate more than usual this year. For gift certificates, visit Noteworthy Experiences.
