The 18 best Hanukkah gifts to give in 2024 that will arrive in time

Hanukkah happens but once a year, so why not go all-out with a box of luxury candy? This dressed-up trio has something for every tastebud — lip-puckering sours, non-alcoholic gummies that give champagne vibes and the brand's signature fruity lips. The best part? Everything's kosher! 

Gelt are to Hanukkah what candy canes are to Christmas. Instead of just giving a handful of gold coins, opt for a milk or dark chocolate dreidel filled with a trio of gelt. Chocolate on chocolate? We see nothing wrong with that. 

You know what every host wants? Someone (ahem, you!) to show up at their house with a full Shabbat spread. Spring for this box from Brooklyn-based Green's Babka, which comes with their famous babka, challah, cookies and chocolate rugelach — that's enough to feed up to 24 people! 

Don't let the dark days of winter get the best of him. Once the sun goes down, he can switch the light on this beanie to guide him as he walks the dog, takes out the trash or tackles some outdoor chores. Get eight hours of light on a single charge, then power it back up with a standard USB charger.

The 42,000-plus five-star reviews speak for themselves. Take it from one knot-free customer, who raved that this bestselling massager is the "best purchase I've made from Amazon." They continued: "Yes, it is sold as a neck massager, but you can use it anywhere on your body. I just spent the last 30 minutes slowly going over my whole back and I feel amazing." Adjust between three intensity levels and crank up the heat to feel its full effect. 

Flying can take a toll on any globe-trotter, but having all the right gadgets and gizmos up in the skies makes the experience way more bearable. Senior Tech Writer Rick Broida is a big fan of this "genius gadget," which plugs into the airplane seat's audio jack so he can pair his AirPods (or any wireless headphones) with ease. "It worked flawlessly, pairing easily with my AirPods Pro and remembering that connection from one session to the next," Broida wrote in his in-depth review.

Bet you didn't think he needed a tiny battery-powered chainsaw — until now. Yahoo readers are obsessed with this little guy (seriously, it's under 3 pounds), which cuts through thick branches and firewood with ease. One five-star reviewer raved that it "cuts through small saplings like a hot knife through butter," while another boasted that it "recharges very quickly and is very easy to clean and maintain, all of which makes this 70-year-old sea witch very happy." 

Give him 365 new nuggets of info to share with anyone who will listen (or, ya know, pretend to). Each morning, he can scan the QR code on the back of the mug to learn about a monumental moment in history that happened on that day.

These dainty hoops will add just the right amount of sparkle to her everyday look. Go with this multi-colored pair (available in gold or silver) since they're easier to match with whatever she's wearing. 

Cold feet no more. Oprah's been gushing about Dearfoam slippers for years, and this ultra-cozy knit pair is her latest fave. They earned a coveted spot on Oprah's Favorite Things List this year, with the gift-giving queen writing that they're the best way to give "relaxation-in-a-box to your nearest and dearest." 

Turn an average shower into a spa-worthy experience. Just pop one of these aromatherapy-packed pucks in the corner of the shower and let it work its magic. Get seven scents in each box, from soul-soothing lavender to energizing grapefruit. 

Go for the unexpected by picking up a daintier version of the brand's bestseller, the Elisa. Set on a textured gold or silver chain, the smaller pendant will really pop amid layers of delicate strands. Opt for this eye-catching fuschia magnesite or go with something more understated — whichever one suits her style.

L.L Bean totes went viral this year — nearly 60 years after their release. Now, she can fully embrace the trend with this keychain version, complete with a zipper closure and the brand's signature stitching. Small but mighty, reviewers say it's the perfect size to stash AirPods, lip balm, breath mints and folded bills. 

They already know and love UNO, but this version kicks things up a notch. The rules are more ruthless, the actions are wilder (Skip Everyone and Wild Draw 10, to name a couple) and it's fiercer on all fronts. It's still good fun for the whole family, though; "One hand can take as little as a few minutes to well over an hour," one merciless fan wrote, adding that it's "the worst game if you want to keep your friends."

With every fold, this plastic cube will take a new shape. Transform it into over 70 shapes, from simple triangles to complex stars and beyond. "The fact that it is also magnetized is really neat as it allows some of the odd combinations to actually stick together and form free-standing structures," one proud puzzler raved. 

Those "big dumb cups" that your teen has collected up the wazoo? They're not just for hydration; they're for fashion. These silicone straw covers, while functional, are also a stylish statement — especially if they want to distinguish their tumbler from everyone else's. 

Magna-Tiles offer endless possibilities of play, so if your little one doesn't have any yet, the classic set is a solid place to start. But if you're looking for an out-of-this-world addition for aspiring astronauts, opt for this space-centered set, which topped this year's Amazon's Toy We Loves list. It comes with all the pieces to build a space shuttle and capsule, plus a mini astronaut and dozens of magnetic tiles to inspire bigger builds. 

Everyone your teen cares about — from TikTokers to Hollywood A-listers like Sydney Sweeney — is singing Laneige's praises these days. The brand claims that their buzzy lip mask is sold globally every two seconds — and you're going to up that average when you snag this set of five minis, featuring sweet-as-candy scents like gummy bear and watermelon pop.
