hi hello hey, and welcome to the holiday season, officially!

No matter what you celebrate, the end of the year holidays are always a special time to spend time with family, eat delicious food, and enjoy giving and receiving gifts. We love Christmastime and gift-giving, so what better way to celebrate than with a gift guide?

Although anyone could use this gift guide, we created it to highlight some of our favorite things that would make great gifts for the blind or chronically-ill person in your life (or yourself!). We hope you enjoy this festive listen as you shop for your loved ones, wrap presents, or bake cookies!
