In New Zealand, Christmas means sunshine. The pōhutukawa — our “New Zealand Christmas tree” — bursts into red flowers, the barbecue comes out, and the beach is never far away. This year, give gifts that feel just as Kiwi as the season. Here are our favourite New Zealand Christmas gifts for everyone on your list.
Stocking fillers under $10
Small, fun and easy to wrap:
- Alpine Silk Hand Crème 30ml — $4.90. A pocket-sized treat for summer hands after a day in the garden or at the beach.
- Whittaker’s Dark Ghana 250g — $7.90. Keep it in the fridge — Kiwi summers are hard on chocolate!
- Pic’s Peanut Butter 380g — $9.90. Perfect for Boxing Day toast.
- Kiwi & Friends Rattle Ring — $9.90. For the littlest one’s first Christmas.
Secret Santa winners ($15–$30)
Work Secret Santa doesn’t have to mean another novelty mug. These are gifts people actually keep:
- Alpine Silk Lanolin Collagen Crème 100g — $13.00. A classic New Zealand cream that suits almost anyone.
- Future All Blacks Ball Cushion — $19.90. For the office rugby fan.
- Hallifax Kiwi in Pink Hoodie & Scarf — $23.90. A cheerful desk buddy that always gets a smile.
- Antipodes Kiwi Seed Gold Luminous Eye Cream — $29.90. A little luxury that feels far more expensive than it is.
Under the tree for the kids
A soft toy from Santa is a Christmas tradition in many homes. Our plush friends are New Zealand through and through:
- Hallifax Sheep in Navy Hoodie — $25.90. Fluffy, sleepy-eyed and ready for cuddles.
- Baby Seal Soft Toy — $28.90. A snowy-white friend inspired by our coastline.
- Hallifax Kiwi in Pink Hoodie & Scarf — $23.90. Our national bird, all wrapped up.
Check the age guidance on each toy’s label before gifting to babies and toddlers.
Thank-you gifts for the host
Heading to someone else’s place for Christmas lunch? Bring a little something along with your pavlova:
- A block of Whittaker’s to share after lunch.
- A jar of Pic’s for the Boxing Day leftovers.
- An Alpine Silk Hand Crème tucked into a card — the host will have done a lot of dishes.

Don’t leave it too late
Christmas is NZ Post’s busiest time of year, so parcels can take a little longer than usual.
- Order early. We dispatch within 1–2 business days, but delivery times stretch in December. We’ll share our last order dates for Christmas delivery on our homepage.
- Ship straight to the family. Enter their address at checkout and add a Christmas message in the order notes.
- Rural addresses take longer. Allow a few extra days for rural deliveries.
- Need lots of gifts? For team or client gifts, see Wholesale & Corporate Gifts.
