12 Gifts for the Twelve Days of Christmas — Based on the Song

Of course we went with pears. How can we not? Giving pears at Christmas has a lengthy history that dates back to the 19th century, and the tradition remains strong to this day with the iconic, delicious, and buttery Royal Riviera® pears.

Add some more flare to your tree with an ornament showing two doves smooching. Doves symbolize peace, freedom, and love, which is a gift that you really can't wrap. And it's a great gift to give even if it's not Christmas.

Who doesn't love anything French? Wine. Cheese. Charcuterie. Filet mignon. Macarons. Croissants. And let's not forget about the soup! So much to choose from! Say oui to turning your Christmas dinner into a French one with duck confit, a Bûche de Noël for dessert, and wash it all down with a French sparkling cider. And if you really want to include a hen, there are plenty of chicken recipes to choose from.

The holidays are made for eating, and the Love Birds Personalized Beechwood Utensils are the perfect tools for your Christmas feast. These are the perfect stocking stuffer or can make a lovely hostess gift. A set of four utensils, including a slotted spoon and spatula, are made out of beautiful beechwood, and come with a custom message and a pair of love birds and hearts engraved on the handles.

The wine seems to never stop pouring during the holidays, but when it does, you need something to close the bottle. You can always put the cork back in, but you risk pieces of it falling into the wine. Then you have to go through the whole rigamarole of filtering the wine and sifting the cork scraps out. Just get yourself, or someone else, in this case, a wine bottle stopper. We found one that has a ring atop it. While it might not be a gold ring (yes, gold ring, not golden ring that most of you falsetto), it will certainly help keep your wine from going bad.

This is for that special someone who's fairly new to celebrating Christmas. The Animated Mother Goose Storyteller can recite seven classic nursey rhymes, including "Jack & Jill," "Hickory Dickory Dock," and "Little Bo Peep." This plush Mother Goose will keep your loved one warm and entertained this holiday season without leaving any surprise eggs in the bed.

The last thing you want to deal with on Christmas morning is an actual swan. Instead, opt for the My First Personalized Jewelry Box that plays the music from "Swan Lake." The box can be personalized with a name and custom message right on the beveled, mirrored glass top. The sweet ballerina figure inside may inspire some Christmas ballet recitals as well.

Bring in the holidays with an assortment of delicious cheeses that we're certain you'll milk for all their worth (see what we did there?). This Gourmet Cheese Assortment offers flavors for every palate, from Caves of Faribault St. Pete's Blue Cheese (a sweet yet peppery blue cheese) to Point Reyes Farmstead Toma Cheese (a semi-hard Italian cow's milk cheese with a buttery flavor and grassy tang finish). Serve with some crackers, dried fruit, and maybe a dip or two, and you've got a delicious holiday charcuterie board.

Give the dancer in your life the perfect gift with this Dance Wish Bracelet. The idea of this bracelet is to make a wish, tie the bracelet around your wrist, and then when it falls off, your wish will come true. They'll surely be dancing all the way through New Year's with this one.

The lord of the manor will leap for joy when he unwraps this Neuhaus 10 Flavor Belgian Chocolate Squares Gift. This assortment of delicious bites has something for every chocolate lover, with flavors like orange, caramel, coffee, and raspberry. With 60 individually wrapped squares, there's plenty to go around.

Give them something piping hot this season with Chocolate-Covered Jalapeños. These spicy delights bring both the heat and the sweet, as they come covered in white, milk, and dark chocolate. If only you had some hot cocoa to wash it down with.

Add some sweet and savory to their holidays with the Moose Munch Premium Popcorn Holiday Drum. This gift includes flavors like classical caramel and dark chocolate. Once they've picked out the popcorn from their teeth, they can flip the container over and bang in the season with some holiday drumming (sorry, mom).
