Your ultimate gift guide to make your loved ones’ Eid Al-Fitr extra special

Your ultimate gift guide to make your loved ones’ Eid Al-Fitr extra special

Eid Al-Fitr marks the end of Ramadan and is a time to exchange gifts with friends and family as a way of showing love, gratitude and appreciation.
Finding a perfect Eid gift can be a daunting and time-consuming task. Arab News came up with a few suggestions to help you choose thoughtful and perfect Eid gifts for your loved ones.

Children, especially, love this festival as they look forward to receiving gifts. Toys and cash are the most common form of gifts during the festival, but giving knowledgeable and Islamic books can be different and unique option.

The Little Book store located in Red Sea Mall, Jeddah, offers a wide range of children’s books from classics to new favorites for all age groups. This thoughtful gift can help nurture the love of reading. Nationwide shipping and delivery are available through its website www.littlebookarabia.com

Another gift idea is an educational interactive prayer mat that is designed to teach children how to perform the prayer in an enjoyable way. It can be bought from Virgin Megastore in Riyadh and Jeddah or online from Amazon, Noon and Mumzworld websites.

And one can never go wrong with chocolates. Patchi, Godiva, Bostani, Aani & Dani, and Bateel are available across the Kingdom and offer a tempting variety of chocolate flavors and the perfect sweet treat gift for Eid. These outlets have special Eid designed chocolate packages and can be at the top of your gift shopping guide.

If you are looking for pretty jewelry, La Mira, Fyne, Kenaz, Lillian Ismail and Yessayan Jewellery have a good array of collections with reasonable prices and can be bought online.

For luxury jewelry brands, Joory Diamonds and Fitaihi located in Jeddah, and Mouawad in Riyadh and Dammam are a few options to consider. Other high-end jewelry brands, such as Chopard, Tiffany & Co, Damas, and Van Cleef & Arpels have special collections for him and her.

Meanwhile, Brands for Less in Riyadh, Jeddah and Alkhobar have a diverse array of premium brand products, ranging from clothing to home decorative accessories, at economical prices. This outlet is a one-stop shop.

Haircare, makeup and skincare gift sets from Sephora, Faces and Kiehl’s are ideal for those who love to pamper themselves.

Since it is customary to wear fragrances on Eid occasions, perfumes also make for a perfect gift.

Gucci Bloom, Euphoria by Calvin Klein, Carolina Herrera Good Girl Blush, Gentleman Givenchy and the YSL Black Opium Perfume are trendy, long-lasting perfumes available at perfumeries such as Paris Gallery, Ajmal Perfumes and Sephora.

Electronic gifts are always a safe choice. Apple stores are packed with recent iPads, iPhones, MacBooks, AirPods and Apple watches, which make an ideal gift.

Branded handbags and wallets also make a fashionable choice for family members. Check for the latest Bottega Veneta wallets and Michael Kors handbags made from high-grade leather.

Dining with the whole family is the best idea during Eid and sharing conversations over food is the cherry on the cake. Several restaurants have put together a special menu and buffet offers for the occasion.

Another thoughtful gift can be a box full of treats which makes an amazing gift other than chocolates. The box can be filled with dried fruits and nuts, dates, and organic honey, making it a healthy treat.
