When you're so busy shopping for everyone on your list, it can be easy to forget what the holiday season is really all about: spending time with the people you love most. With that in mind, take a little time to choose a few gifts that your entire brood can enjoy as one. To help, we're sharing some of our favorite family-friendly presents.

If togetherness is the goal but your loved ones are spread out all across the country, or you're being mindful of social distancing guidelines in light of the ongoing pandemic, a smart video calling system makes being together a whole lot easier. Gift one to your parents and siblings, and be sure to get one for your own home, too. We also found a digital camera that makes taking and sharing exceptional quality photos a breeze. Forget about sending selfies to your relatives! Now, you can send high-res portraits.

Is more family bonding your goal? Get a regular game or movie night on the calendar—a few of the gifts on our list will help facilitate either. From an heirloom board game and a popcorn maker to a family-friendly cookbook and the comfiest seating, we're sharing everything you need for the ultimate evening in. And if you're looking for a way to commemorate some of your greatest memories, we have a few ideas. Personalized mugs, complete with each person's own cartoon character, are a fun way to capture your family exactly as it is today. If your group loves to travel, a custom map that makes keeping track of your journeys—or announcing new ones—is a good idea.

Whatever your goal, a gift the whole family can enjoy at once is guaranteed to be well-received. Ahead, 12 of our favorite presents that'll help you spend more time together.
