9 Ideas to Help you Unwind During the Festive Season

The latest trend taking over Google feeds is Adult Lego—because apparently, Lego hasn’t made enough money off our kids yet! Now, it’s being sold as the “new meditation,” a way for adults to relax and unwind. As a mum to a Lego-hoarding son, I can’t wait for this plastic madness to be OUT of my house. If the thought of Lego gives you flashbacks to stepping on a rogue brick in the middle of the night, we’ve got some far better ideas to help you unwind from all the Christmas stress of Pinterest-worthy Christmas trees, lunch with in-laws, and late-night shopping!

  1. Cocktails!
    That's all we need to say on this hot tip! Other than check out our fun Christmas Cocktailsand don't forget the cute and festive glasses!

  2. Colouring
    The perfect excuse to unleash your inner child while enjoying some adult drinks this festive season. Hours of couch time, with a pack of coloured pencils, trying to stay within the lines of a Martini-clutching Super Woman "Anxiety Girl", all while ignoring the fact that your laundry pile looks like it’s auditioning for a role in Jurassic Park. Sounds pretty relaxing to us. 


  3. Puzzle
    Reach peak adulthood with one of our fabulous inappropriate puzzles. They are the perfect blend of humour and frustration—hours of assembling little pieces of pure absurdity to help you unwind. There’s something undeniably satisfying about connecting that last piece of a dog in mid-poop or making sure every penis aligns perfectly in the penis puzzle despite how hard it might get.

  4. Do absolutely fucking nothing!
    Why do we always have to be doing things to unwind, let’s call bullshit on that and spend an entire day, guilt-free on the couch! Just let the Christmas lights flicker in the background while you sink into the couch like it’s a long-lost lover, get your Uber Eats app ready and have a day of pure indulgence where the only reason you walk into the kitchen is to top up your water bottle (or wine glass!)

  5. Gardening
    If you're looking to unwind from the Christmas madness, take control of life one weed at a time with a gardening session! Of course, you could say there's nothing like connecting with nature to destress, but let’s be honest—it’s just really satisfying pulling stubborn weeds from between pebbles and steppingstones, and then washing away all the dirt in a long hot shower before really enjoying the glass of wine you have 'earnt'.

  6. Baking
    Holiday baking!! Could there be a more sensory Christmas experience? The smell of cinnamon, the sight of flour-dusted countertops, and the sound of your kitchen turning into a chaotic disaster zone as you try to roll out dough without making it look like a crime scene, and at the end, some sweet, sugary rewards... unless, of course, you burn them. In which case, make sure you have a few or our Dunking Dickies Shortbread Biscuits in the cupboard.

  7. Games Night!
    At The Inappropriate Gift Co, we're always up for a night of fun and games. Throw in some wine and a charcuterie board, and good luck trying to stop us! If the holiday stress is starting to take its toll and the magic of Christmas feels like it's fading, grab a few friends and host a low-key, hilariously fun game night.
  8. Animal Time! 
    When all else fails and you need to shake off the Christmas chaos, grab your fur baby and step outside for some fresh air, take them for a walk whilst you sip on a coffee, or just snuggle them on the couch. The unconditional love of a pet is the perfect way to unwind. Plus, unlike everyone else, they expect nothing from you this Christmas—maybe just a few scraps under the table! But we think a little gift is always a fun idea.

  9. Gaming
    Nothing says ‘holiday stress relief’ like ignoring your to-do list, dodging family drama, and leveling up in a video game, and with these epic gaming socks you can go into the night...or even the early hours of the morning because they glow in the dark!! 


At the Inappropriate Gift Co. we recommend you skip the chaos altogether and jump online, scroll through pages of hilarious products and get all your gifts delivered!
