Here at Anchored Women, we’re about doing less of the not-so-important things, so that we can do more of the things that matter to us.
We think that applies to Christmas, too. So to help us all get a little more focused on what matters and embrace a simple, meaningful Christmas, I’ve put together this gift guide for the whole family. Each section offers a few suggestions for gifts that are fun, useful, and meaningful – things that the whole family will love!
Our hope is that a simple Christmas really helps us all focus on what matters most – the gift of Christ, sent for us.
I hope this simple gift guide helps inspire you as you prepare to shop for presents this Christmas! Make sure to read all the way to the end – I’ve got a freebie you’re going to love as you plan, shop, and wrap!

 | THE STORY BIBLE We love this Bible so very much. This is our family Bible, and each story comes with gorgeous illustrations, questions, a prayer, and an activity. It includes MANY more Bible stories than most story Bibles do, and it’s very theologically sound. If you don’t already have this Bible, it would be a perfect Christmas gift! |

 | PAPERMATE FLAIRS These are just my favorite pens in the whole world, hands down. Use them for color coding, or just writing beautifully in a plain old notebook - these pens are bright and colorful and just the best ever! Plus, pair them with a pretty journal, and you've got a great gift! |

 | MELISSA & DOUG COLORING PADS My mother-in-law just bought these for Nathan's birthday and they are a HUGE HIT. He will seriously spend hours coloring them, and they are perfect for his kindergarten hands. But Emily loves them too! These are a win for all ages. |

 | CHRONICLES OF NARNIA AUDIO SET My kids are really into Narnia right now, so we’ve just started using this Audio Set that I bought last Christmas. This is SUCH a great audio recording – it sounds like everything is happening in real life! If you love C.S. Lewis and the Chronicles of Narnia, this is a must-buy. |

 | WATERPROOF SHOWER SPEAKER I absolutely love this speaker! It's totally waterproof, and bluetooth ready - so you can stream music or a podcast while you're taking a shower. My favorite way to use it is to stream the audio version of the Bible to listen to God's Word while I'm taking a shower in the morning! Best gift I've ever gotten! |

 | KINDLE PAPERWHITE As a mom, this is my favorite way to read on-the-go. I can keep my Paperwhite with me, and read it in pick up line, or at the gym, or whatever. And with Kindle Unlimited, you get access to a TON of books for free. |

 | ROOMBA This is the best present Jon ever got me. I kid you not. I press a button and it vacuums for me. Hear that ladies – I NO LONGER HAVE TO VACCUM! And it works very well. We’ve had ours for almost 5 years now and it’s still awesome. Men, if you love your wife, you will buy this for her ASAP. |
