35 Brilliant Gift Ideas that Begin with the Letter B

Bikes Aren’t Just for Kids Anymore: Sirdar S-700 S-800 26/29-Inch Mountain Bike

A good bike is pretty much an unbeatable ‘B’-themed gift. Bikes serve multiple purposes. They’re great for getting exercise, burning calories and losing weight, but they’re also just a lot of fun. There’s something amazing about forcing your muscles to pull you up a steep hill, and there’s something just as triumphant about coasting down the other side.

Bike riding is a joy for people of all ages, which is why this Sirdar mountain bike is a great gift for both the adults and kids on your gift list this year.

A Baker’s Dream: 6-Piece Bakeware Set by Gorilla Grip

A nice bakeware set is a good option for the friends in your life who enjoy making tasty treats like cakes, cookies and muffins. This set is made of superior carbon steel, so it isn’t prone to bending, popping or warping even at temperatures reaching 482º.

It’s a great collection.

Fisherman’s Delight: Berkley Glowstik Surf Fishing Rods

For the Anime Fanatic: Bleach Box Set Volumes 1-21

If you have someone on your holiday gift list who’s a huge anime nerd – don’t knock it; nerds are IN this holiday season – this box set collection of the Bleach manga is a good choice. When it comes to popular manga, Bleach is high up on the list, and this set contains volumes one through 21! They all come in a great storage box with a handle, so it’s both attractive and convenient.

The set is a little pricey, and it’s not something that’s going to suit everyone’s tastes. It certainly isn’t a great option for a blind gift exchange. However, if you have someone who’s really into manga, they’ll love this collection.

Make a Little Music: Banjo Ukulele Concert 23-Inch by AKLOT

For the Classy Lady: BCBG Generation Tritone Cuff Bracelet

This lovely copper- and silver-colored cuff bracelet is a great, inexpensive gift for the more elegant jewelry lovers in your life.

The natural metal colors also lend themselves well to just about any outfit, so it always looks great.

The Classic Girl’s Gift: Barbie Signature 2020 Holiday Barbie Doll

It can make loafs of 500, 750 or 1,000 grams with either light, medium or dark coloring.

The machine also has an optional 15-hour time delay for when she needs to preset a beginning cook time and a 60-minute warming feature that’ll stop the machine from cooking but allow it to keep the bread warm and toasty so she can have a fresh loaf when she gets home.
