December 2007 – Gift Ideas
While a toy, sweater or new watch make great holiday gifts, the gift of health and peace can last a lifetime and bring special meaning to your family, friends and colleagues. You’ll find a wide variety of health-related gifts for all ages at Small Stones, the health resource center of Froedtert & the Medical College of Wisconsin.
Does someone in your life have a special interest such as meditation, jogging or nutrition? Small Stones has many unique items, including books and CDs, to create a one-of-a-kind, health-themed gift bag.
Among the distinctive gift items you’ll find at Small Stones are:
- Blooming tea and clear teapots to enjoy the health and relaxation benefits of tea and watch the beauty of the tea unfold like a flower
- You: Staying Young: The Owner’s Manual for Extending Your Warranty, the newest book by the popular authors Michael Roizen, MD, and Mehmet Oz, MD
- Canes in bronze, black and painted patterns for the cane user who would like a little extra style; canes also come in folding models
- Skeleton and body part puzzles and take-apart models that provide hands-on learning for preschool and older children
- Medic alert type tags with interchangeable fashionable bracelets
- Caren hand and body care products, a popular choice, with part of the proceeds going to the Caren Singer Breast Cancer Foundation; packaged in a set of 2 oz. containers in a clear plastic case, this is the perfect gift for the traveler
- Isabel Bloom figurines, framed and freestanding sculptures with an inspirational message; these are new to this area
- Inflatable lumbar roll, an ideal gift for the traveler who wants to avoid a backache
- Ceramic plates in many styles that express the sentiments of the season; some are meant to be passed from family to family
In addition, Small Stones offers the latest books on meditation, stress reduction, nutrition, disease prevention, exercise and many other wellness topics, as well as relaxing CDs. A Small Stones nurse educator will help you find the right gifts for the special people on your list.
