The holiday season is here and if you’re like me you love finding creative gift ideas to hand out to your friends, your neighbors, your family, and your kids’ school teachers. Many of my friends, like myself, have young children and this year I wanted to come up with a fun gift idea they could do together as a family activity. I came across this Simply Orange Sugar Cookie Mix Gift Kit idea and instantly knew I had this year’s perfect gift!

This Simply Orange Sugar Cookie Mix Gift Kit is a gift that can get the entire family involved and it’s something they can do for Family Night! I put together a cute gift basket, which includes Simply Orange, a mason jar filled with the dry ingredients needed for the recipe (I layered the dry ingredients and tied off the mason jar with a cute bow), a Holiday card with handwritten ingredients list and baking instructions, and a couple Holiday cookie cutters.

My kids and I tried out the recipe and the cookies were so GOOD! Plus, my house smelled amazing while the cookies were baking…there was a warm, orange aroma that filled my entire kitchen! Y’all, if you’re looking for a creative gift idea this is the way to go! Simply Orange Sugar Cookie Mix Gift Set…give it a try! I guarantee anyone you gift this to will love it!!! Here’s the link for the full recipe: https://www.simplyorangejuice.com/recipes/sugar-cookie-mix-gift-kit

Hope everyone has a wonderful Holiday Season! Aloha!
