Score Some Hygge Gifts For Kids Under $50 For Your Coziest Holiday Yet

This holiday, make hygge the theme of your family festivities. Is the concept new to you? Allow us to catch you up.

Hygge, pronounced hooga, is a vibe. No, really. Hygge is all about a specific kind of simple, cozy togetherness. It's the kind of warmth we often associate with the holiday season, but Danish culture manages to keep the magic going all year long.

This year feels like the most appropriate time to keep things cozy and simple while feeling the gratitude of being able to be with your family. Getting through the holidays won't be easy for many families, for emotional, financial, and other reasons. As hard as those struggles can be, families find a way to be grateful for what they can swing and for the fact that they have each other.

You can bring a hygge holiday to your home this holiday season without spending big bucks. Here are some hygge kids holiday gifts under $50 that will bring smiles and warmth to any kid on your list this year.
