Webp 3edited

There’s nothing worse than trying to find a gift for someone and not knowing what to get them.

To take the guesswork out of gift buying, we’ve found practical and helpful gifts for any occasion, sorted by theme to help find everything you are looking for.

Top 5 “Summer Essentials” Gifts

1) Zoola Outdoor Bean Bag Ottoman
Yogibo: Zoola Outdoor Bean Bag Ottoman - Royal

2) Neutrally Buoyant Water Ball
For your next swimming pool game, toss around a Watermelon... Ball. Modeled after a real-life watermelon, this rubber ball can be dribbled, kicked, passed, and bounced—all under water. Fill it up with water and a little bit of air to make it neutrally buoyant—its density will match that of the surrounding water, so it doesn’t sink or float. Instead, it stays suspended in the H2O.

3) Cascade Tabletop Gas Fire Pit with Sound System
Fire pit. Sound system. Your backyard or patio just turned into the ultimate place to hang. This versatile entertainment hub sits right on an outside table and offers up some serious wireless sound quality along with the relaxing flames—perfect for dinner al fresco. It has a custom-designed gas connection so it can be used on any outdoor table—even one without an umbrella hole.

4) Succulent Garden Sculptures
Crafted from galvanized steel with a realistic patina finish, these charming all-weather landscape accents are the perfect addition to any outdoor setting. Made in the USA.

5) Mosquito Repellent Incense Sticks
Ward off pests with natural mosquito repellent incense sticks. High concentrations of citronella, cedarwood, rosemary, and other oils naturally combat mosquitoes and smell great, too. This formula doesn’t contain any DEET or petroleum, and the incense is clean-burning, so you can feel good about using it.
