Top 6 Best Tech Gifts for Your Friends or Family on 2012 Christmas Holiday

As everyone knows, Christmas is a time for giving, a time for reflection, and a time for buying loads and loads of gadgets – either as gifts, or for yourself. So, what is the best move to pick up the best gadgets 2012 and top Holiday gifts? Very crowded – the shops- are they? Here are some great gadgets that look great on you and greatest when you gift them.

Whether you’re looking to treat yourself this Christmas or want some inspiration when buying for others, we’ve rounded up enough tech kit to fill a dozen stockings. There are plenty of options including smartphones and tablets. We’ve done most of the hard work for you: all you need do is choose the wrapping paper. Check the below options to know what these gifts are:

iPad mini: Apple’s new iPad delivers all the same features as its bigger sister, just in a smaller, more portable package. Great for frequent travelers, the iPad mini measures 7.87in (full-sized iPads measure 9.5in) and is just 0.3 kg. Its smaller frame lets the iPad mini easily slide into purses or briefcases, and users can hold the tablet with just one hand. The only drawback is that the display is a bit of downgrade compared to bigger iPads, but other specs, such as battery life and cameras, are identical. The cheapest iPad mini is $509.

Kindle Fire HD: Amazon’s 7in Kindle Fire HD touts specs that give Apple’s iPad mini a run for its money and costing nearly $US130 less. The Kindle Fire HD comes equipped with a 1280×800 HD display, dual-driver stereo speakers and dual-antenna wi-fi that, according to Amazon, lets it download content 40 percent faster than the third-generation iPad. The 7in Kindle Fire HD comes in a 16GB model for $US199 and a 32GB model for $US249 – it’s not available in Australia, but can be bought on Amazon’s US online store.

iPhone 5: For those who didn’t join the rush to buy the iPhone 5 the minute it came out, Apple’s latest smartphone would make a great gift. Faster, thinner and lighter than previous iPhone models, the iPhone 5 created a frenzy when it was launched in September, and Apple sold more than 5 million within the first three days of availability. So what’s all the fuss about? Apart from its more powerful processor and thinner form factor, Apple’s latest smartphone also runs iOS 6, Apple’s latest mobile software, and includes the same top-notch retina display that debuted with the third-generation iPad. Now that the rush is over, you can get an iPhone 5 at Apple and resellers for $799, and telcos on a variety of plans.

Samsung Galaxy Note II: Can’t decide whether to surprise your loved ones this year with a tablet or a smartphone? Give them both with the Samsung Galaxy Note II. Its half-smartphone, half-tablet design makes the Samsung Galaxy Note II stand out from the slew of other mobile devices on the market today. The gadget comes with Google’s latest mobile OS – Android 4.1 Jelly Bean – along with 4G support and a 5.5in HD display. Samsung also offers its S Pen stylus along with the Note. It is selling now for $899, and on plans from Optus, Vodafone and Virgin.

Google Nexus 10: Apple’s iPad may rule the tablet market, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t any worthy competitors out there. Google’s Nexus 10, a 10in, Android-based tablet, is one of them – and it sells for almost $100 less than the fourth-generation iPad, letting you save a few bucks at Christmas. And don’t worry – its modest price tag doesn’t mean sub-par specs. The display on the Nexus 10 actually has more pixels than the fourth-generation iPad’s retina display, plus it runs a powerful ARM Cortex 15 dual-core processor. Google offers a 16GB model of the Nexus 10 for $469 and a 32GB version for $569. Apple’s comparable iPad starts from $539.

Microsoft Surface: Microsoft Surface is the perfect gift this year for those curious to test run the software giant’s first go at a tablet. Running Windows RT, the ARM-specific flavour of Windows 8, Surface is a 10in tablet that comes with an integrated kickstand, allowing users to prop it up to watch movies or browse the web hands-free. It starts at $559 and can be bundled with Microsoft’s Touch Cover keyboard for an additional $130 to offer a more laptop-like experience. Another version of Surface, running Windows 8 Pro, is slated to launch in January.

5 Most Popular Christmas Games for Kids and Family to have more enjoyable Christmas 2012

Traditionally, just like the New Year celebration in China, Christmas is the right time for family members to get together to enjoy family warmness. Before the Christmas celebration, people usually would prepare Christmas trees, Christmas food, Christmas costumes, etc. The parents would also prepare Christmas gifts for their children. Some people may also prepare some Christmas movies for kids and family members to watch together. Besides these ways to celebrate, another tradition way to celebrate Christmas is to play Christmas games with family and friends, which could be the happiest moments of Christmas besides the Christmas gifts. Today, I would like to introduce some popular Christmas games that are suitable to play for kids and family.

Christmas song picture game: Got a family that likes picture games? Head over to this website and print out the game, then let everyone take a shot. First one to finish is declared the Christmas song guru! This is a great game for families to play at the table after dinner and before dessert.

Family tree: This game will only work if you someone in your group is an incredibly good sport (always performed by the daddy). The idea is to decorate a person as a Christmas tree. The willing victim must stand still as all the kids in the group decorate him (or her) with decorations made from red and green crepe paper, aluminum foil, paper, candy, bows, leftover wrapping paper and whatever else you can find laying around. The end result: hilariously good family fun!

Pass the Ornament: Like the game of hot potato, in this Christmas game for kids you don’t want to get caught with the ornament in your hand when the music stops. You need to choose an ornament that isn’t breakable first, have the kids sit in a circle, and then play Christmas music while the children pass the ornament to each other. When the music stops, the child holding the ornament is out.

Candy Cane Hunt: Why wait until Easter to have an official hunt? Instead of eggs, hide different colored candy canes throughout the house. You need to give each child a Christmas stocking to hold the candy canes he or she finds. Then ask the kids to find candy canes. The child with the most candy canes wins.

Guess What’s in the Stocking: This game forces children to use their five senses to guess the secret item hidden in a Christmas stocking. First, have the players close their eyes. Then fill a Christmas stocking with a holiday inspired object, like candy cane, Santa hat, ornament, etc. After that, ask children to take turns touching, shaking, and smelling the object hidden inside the stocking. The first child to guess the item wins.

What’re your games you have prepared for this Christmas? Just share with us your own one in the comment part if you like.

Some advices for you on shopping Christmas gifts and other holiday gifts

Quite soon, the 2012 Christmas is arriving. As the most popular holiday of the year, one thing is unavoidable. That is to give Christmas gifts to friends or family members. For me, it was once a really hard task as I have little idea on what to gift and don’t like shopping to get gifts. Because of the allodoxaphobia, I always don’t know what to choose during shopping. For years, I have been afraid of Christmas and other gift giving holidays.

Things get changed since my friend, Damon, gave me some suggestions on Christmas and other holiday gift giving. Now, it becomes quite easy for me to shop the right gifts for my friends and family. He gave me some advices on shopping holiday gifts which are showed below. Hope you can also get some inspiration from these suggestions.

Firstly, you should set the cost limit, which means how much you plan to spend on the gift. You should do this on your own budget. Of course, if you want to make some DIY gifts, like DIY DVD discs from Christmas movies, you can only spend a few dollars on gifting.

Then, make a list. You need to create a list on who and what to gift. A list would help you remember what to buy during shopping, either online or in physical sops. Make sure each person you will give to is on the list. Be sure the items you choose are not above your spending limit. Also, set the cost limit on the list for everyone and every gift, in case of impulse shopping to get overspended.

Of course, you also need to learn how to bargain. Bargain with the seller to get a lower price will help to save you a lot of money.

Meanwhile, you need to start the preparing work early. Christmas, and other gift giving occasions, occur on the same day every year. Besides you, other people also purchase gifts for giving. An early preparing work would make it much easier and relaxed.

Shop online if possible. Nowadays, the online marketing is also very popular. And it is also very common for online shops to make big discount before various gift giving holidays. Some would even give free giveaway gifts. Such kind of campaigns would also help to save money for you.

What’s your opinion on gift giving on Christmas and other holidays? Feel free to share with us your own thought in the comment part.

Top 10 Most Popular Christmas Movies for Kids and Family for Christmas 2012

Once again, the hottest holiday in the year comes. As a traditional holiday, Christmas in many countries is now also a celebration of the secular part of the holiday. People could have now many ways to celebrate this holiday, like shopping, decorating, gifting, enjoying delicious food, playing Christmas games, etc. among which watching Christmas movies becomes more and more popular in most families.

For most people, Christmas is a time to be with family. Apart from the Christmas meal and gifts, it would be an excellent choice to watch movies together to experience the holiday spirit. Today, I’ve collected some most popular Christmas movies suitable for kids and family for watching on Christmas 2012. Check them below. At least one would meet your needs.

A Charlie Brown Christmas: A perennial fave that addresses the material and spiritual aspects of the holiday season, A Charlie Brown Christmas offers families a break from the buy!buy!buy! clamor surrounding Christmas. The storyline follows the ups and downs of Charlie Brown, initially depressed by the commercialism of Christmas, but ultimately buoyed by directing the school pageant, a pep talk from Linus, and the strength of a sad little fir tree. Kids and parents alike will enjoy bopping along the Vince Guaraldi’s iconic musical score.

The Polar Express: In this family film about believing, Tom Hanks directed and voiced many of the characters in this excellent take on the classic children’s novel. A little boy who doesn’t believe in Santa rides the magical Polar Express to the North Pole to find out the truth.

How the Grinch Stole Christmas: With two versions to choose from now, the animated version still wins – mostly because of the memorable songs that almost everyone young and old can sing from memory. This Dr. Seuss story about the Grinch who hated Christmas never

Elf: This new family friendly holiday classic features SNL funny man Will Ferrell as Buddy the Elf, who has lived at Santa’s Workshop with the other elves his whole life. Discovering that he’s human, Buddy finds himself in NYC dealing with the real world as he tries to get to know his father who incidentally, is on the naughty list.

Frosty the Snowman: An animated cartoon about Frosty the snowman, who springs to life when the children place a magic hat upon his head. We all know the song, “Frosty the Snowman,” and the upbeat wintery feeling it brings. This wonderful favorite is available on the same DVD as “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.”

Miracle on 34th Street: Kris Kringle–unbeknownst to cynical, market-minded adults, the real Santa Claus–is hired to play himself at Macy’s Department Store, New York City. He finds himself in a situation where he must convince an unbelieving little girl, and others, that he is the real Santa. NR

Home Alone: Eight-year-old Kevin McCallister is accidentally left home alone by his family while they fly off to France for Christmas vacation. Kevin loves his freedom, delightedly gorging himself on sweets and staying up late — until he is forced to defend his home from a team of burglars. But Kevin learns that self-defense can be fun too, as he goes about flying to defeat the bumbling thieves. Rated PG.

Veggie Tales: The Star of Christmas: If you’re looking for a movie that reinforces the biblical Christmas story without simply retelling it, then get this Veggie Tales movie. Favorite characters Bob the Tomato and Larry the Cucumber star as Cavis and Millward, two producers of a huge Christmas musical spectacular with more lights and sparkle than anyone has ever seen. But when the church across town plans a Christmas pageant for the same night, the competition is on. This adventure will teach kids about loving each other and God’s love for us through the gift of His Son, Jesus. Not only is this movie fun to watch, it’s a great introduction for young children to the significance of the Christmas story.

Santa Claus is Comin’ to Town: This classic Christmas movie is narrated by Fred Astaire, and it’s a lot of fun. It’s an historical, yet fictional account of how Santa Claus came to be. The movie follows Kris Kringle from his childhood to becoming an adult, meeting and falling in love with the future Mrs. Claus, and bringing happiness and joy to children with special gifts and toys. Just like other stop-animation specials from that time, this one is also filled with catchy tunes including the famous title song, sung by Astaire. Couple this movie with Rudolph for an entire history lesson (sort of) on the origins of legendary Christmas

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer: “Pull up an ice block and lend an ear” to this fantastic tale of how Rudolph became Santa’s most famous and valuable reindeer. Made as a TV special in the 1960s, Rudolph continues to be a classic Christmas movie for kids that each generation falls in love with. More than just a Christmas story, this movie tells the tale of misfits such as an elf who wants to be a dentist, a reindeer with a shiny nose, an explorer who can’t complete his quest, and a snow monster who wants to be loved and how they come together to gain acceptance and find their purposes in life. Lots of memorable music and dialogue make this a movie your kids will want to watch again and again.

Some of these movies are available from Amazon in DVD discs. So, if you want to watch these Christmas DVD movies on your own handsets, like iPad mini or Galaxy S 3, you need to use a DVD to video converter to help you convert Christmas DVD movies to video for your devices. If you want other ideas about Christmas celebrating, you can also check some fun Christmas things to do on Christmas 2012 alongside the traditional celebrating ways.
