Coraline Blu-ray Movie Gift Set

Coraline was one of the best blu-ray movie releases of 2009. If someone you know has adopted HDTV and blu-ray and doesn't already own this movie, it is a top-rated gift idea.

Coraline is an excellent movie, an animated 3D stop-motion film with a spooky bend. Not quite appropriate for young children but definitely worth thinking about for older children, say tweens and up. (Check Coraline's rating.)

The limited edition blu-ray gift set includes the contents of the regular blu-ray movie in collectible packaging plus a set of postcards and a book called 'Getting Things Right.' The book shares Henry Selick's thoughts about his own inspiration for the movie and about the creation of the movie.

Any family with older children and teens would enjoy this movie as would anyone who loves stop-action movies done in the style of Tim Burton.

TY Pluffie Kisser Giraffe, You Won't Find A Sweeter Valentine's Day Plush Animal!

Where they came up with the name TY Pluffie Kisser for this gorgeous Valentine's Day plush giraffe, I don't know...but he sure is cute isn't he?

I think he'd be a wonderful Valentine's Day gift for many people from children right through to adults. He's just so darn cute plus he is very collectible and he is very affordable. Amazon has him listed for less than half the regular retail price.

If you hadn't thought to look for Valentine's Day gifts on Amazon, you might want to pay them a visit! I love their super selection, their fast service and their FREE shipping on orders worth $25 or more. Check Amazon's Valentine's Day merchandise out for yourself by clicking right here.

Before Green Gables, The Prequel to Anne of Green Gables

Before Green Gables is the absolutely wonderful story of Anne's life before she arrived at Green Gables. Nova Scotian Budge Wilson did an amazing job of writing this book and making it seem as though L.M. Montgomery herself wrote it.

Any true Anne of Green Gables fan has to have this book on her bookshelf! It would make an excellent Christmas gift for any Anne fan and for any young lady whom you would like to introduce Anne of Green Gables to.

Days of Wonder Ticket To Ride Strategy Board Game

Looking for an excellent new family board game for a Christmas gift? A strategy board game? If so, you should check out top-rated game, The Days of Wonder's Ticket To Ride.

My son was given this game for his 16th birthday this weekend and we're loving it. It is a great combination of strategy and luck and lots of fun whether played ruthlessly or not. It was really easy to learn and it played out in an hour...both are definite bonuses in my book.

While my children are teenagers and they are enjoying the game, this game is recommended for children aged 8-years old and up so it would be a perfect Christmas gift for any tweens in your life as well as for any board gaming teenagers. It is also a great game for children to play with adults.

Merry Christmas!

Put Harry Potter Clue Under Your Christmas Tree

Harry Potter Clue would be a wonderful Christmas gift for the tweens, teens and adults in your life who love Harry Potter. (And even for those who just love Clue.)

In Harry Potter Clue, you have to solve the mystery of the disappearance of one of the students at Hogwarts. Similar to regular Clue, it adds an added dimension...House Points. Loose them all and you are out. Out of the game that is.

With Amazon customer reviews like, "Great Clue Variation," "Family Favorite," "Super Duper Clue Game" and "Harry Potter Adult Went Crazy Over This Gift," I do not see how you could go wrong presenting this game as a gift this Christmas.
