Your voice and way of speaking is interesting and easy to listen to.
some of us love jewelry-just a thought
love this wonderful ideas
Awesome ideas! Thanks for putting it together! By the way, love the intro. You’ll have to text me if you had it professionally done and by whom.
Great gift ideas & categories based on age! That tile to help find misplaced phones, keys or wallets have come in handy more times than I know for even sighted people in my family!
All very excellent suggestions! When I was in college I learned that the sense that has the largest level of discernment for humans was not vision, it was the sense of smell. Its also the sense that has the strongest emotional connection so if your grandma made pancakes for you all the time when you smell maple syrup that will bring up strong emotional memories of being at your grandma's house and her making pancakes.
As you know, I like cooking and baking and both my wife and I make yarn projects with our hands. I like to make handmade gifts. Baked goods like cakes, cookies, pies, and chocolates really trigger that sense of smell and a soft and fuzzy hand made sweater is a nice tactile sensation.
Food is always a good one too. Can't really go wrong with a box of chocolate!
Thank you Tamara, really well thought through tips for Christmas. I really enjoyed your video. I do use my Google Home device, everyday for news reports,music and for Netflixs, to choose films etc have found it really usefall. I have recommended it for others. Loved that you mentioned, tactile and audio devices, so really important to mention the things that stimulate, other Senses we have. I do love the drawing device you mentioned, I love drawing,and art. Love the advice for gift of everyday chores and Sport items, so really thoughfull and means such a lot. Great ideas for gifts. Thank you Kind regards Tony from Scandinavia.
I loved this Tamara! It was such a thoughtful and interesting video. You mentioned a lot of different gifts on here that I never would have considered when I was young. I have to be honest with you, those wiki sticks sounds like a lot of fun!
I really love gifts that have a lot of fun textures. Some of my favorite things are really soft clothing and blankets. My family knows this and every year they get me a nice soft sweater and I love my soft sweater collection! They make me so happy and warm!
Food is always another good option! I have to be careful with my diet specifically, but people who know me well know what I can and can’t eat, and getting a yummy snack I don’t always have the opportunity to partake in is definitely a treat!
And finally, I am one of those weirdos who loves gifts for my Guide dog. I probably get the most excited about dog equipment, whether it be a collar, a new name tag, or a dog bed. It doesn’t really matter, whatever makes my dog happy makes me happy too!
Merry Christmas!
Great tips and ideas.
Great video! That musical crayon thing sounds so cool! And I think I might get that tactile drawing board for myself
So many great ideas. Thank you so much. My husband gets me audio books. He knows I love them and spend hours relaxing with them. I listen to them over and over.
