If you know what their interests and hobbies are at the moment, then get equipment and other stuff related to those. Books and craft supplies are often good ideas. A giftcard to a store they often visit is always nice. A nice mug is a good gift for many people, because it's useful and beautiful. For kids, you can ask them what's their favorite animal, and then get them a plushie of that animal. They'll probably love it. Getting them a trendy toy (such as a Squishmallow rn) can also be good. If you still have no idea what someone wants, then you can get them a nice card with some cash and maybe some candy.

"Elements" by Euclid. Together with a mug printed with the graphics from the title page.

They're so far away I probably won't, sadly.

Colouring books! The wife, mother, and mother-in-law all find it therapeutic so they get that. Father and father-IL get booze. Brother gets a happy Xmas text as we stopped exchanging gifts years ago.

Try with home decor, a plant or a good lamp is always a good gift.

Dad - a planer and bacon of the month club. Mom - athletic clothes and reservations for afternoon tea. I'm also buying tickets to an escape room for all of us to do together. Trying to give fewer gifts and spend more on activities that will bring us all together
