If baked goods and crafts aren't your areas of expertise, there are still plenty of ways to gift responsibly.
"For children, opt for a book over a toy," Bradbury recommends. "In the formative ages, a book can be a very powerful thing and there are so many available now that impart knowledge about our environment (i.e. A Wild Child's Guide to Endangered Animals)."
Personally, I feel gifts are an excellent gift for friends and relatives of all ages, really. If you can't find a particular title at your local charity shop, or if you're sending gifts to friends in other towns, World of Books is an excellent online resource for ordering and sending secondhand books across the UK (here are 20 Winter reads POPSUGAR loves, if you need a recommendation).
Digital magazine subscriptions are another great gift for the reader in your life. "Digital magazine subscriptions, like Woman Kind and the Positive News Magazine, can keep us inspired and introduced to new and positive ideas all year around," adds Bradbury.
