Holiday gift guides point to different ways to make presents feel personal: readers most want books they have specifically requested, and many keep a wish list they are willing to share. A tech-gift guide recommends practical devices and wellness products at a range of prices, including a portable keyboard, open-ear headphones and a compact fan. For Gen Alpha, another guide highlights age-conscious beauty sets and fashion accessories such as bead jewelry, cozy jackets and playful keychains. Travel editors’ wish lists lean toward elevated comforts and items inspired by frequent trips, including hotel-quality towels, cashmere and home-entertainment upgrades.
