Low Waste Gift Guide: Experience gift ideas for anyone

Today I am going to be sharing experience gift ideas as a part of my low waste gift guide series. I chose a variety of ideas that can fit a variety of budgets. I will be posting a series of blog posts up until Christmas with ideas to help you find the right gift during the holiday season.

Some of these experience gift ideas depend on Covid-19 Regulations and what is currently open right now depending on where you live. I encourage you to follow your local public health guidelines, wear a mask, avoid large crowds, and stay home if sick.

  1. Audible subscription
  2. National Parks or Beach Pass
  3. Cameo video from a celebrity
  4. Babbel or Rosetta Stone subscription
  5. Museum Tickets
  6. Online Class based on their interests
  7. Costco, BJ’s, or Sam’s Club Membership
  8. Pay for extracurricular activities
  9. Vacation
  10. Disney+, Hulu, or Netflix Subscription
  11. Socially distant photography session with a local photographer
  12. Gardening Supplies
  13. Movie Tickets
  14. Escape rooms in a box (If you google escape rooms in a box you can find them on Etsy or through an escape room company)
  15. A gift card to a local Restaurant or Cafe
  16. Experience calendar with pre-planned dates or you choose the date and what to do together. I saw this gift idea online and the dates can be anything that you choose. It’s a great idea if you want something more tangible that you can wrap.

But how do I give an experience gift to someone?

  1. Put the tickets, reservation confirmation, a photo or a piece of paper saying what they are going to do in an envelope or wrap it.
  2. Gift with an item associated with the experience.
  3. Scavenger Hunt
  4. Give them a puzzle that they need to solve to find out what their gift is
