You can even purchase your live Christmas tree at the Bishop John Carroll tree lot, and don’t forget to reward yourself with a treat from the Katiebug’s Sips & Sweets food truck. The shops are open Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. okcpopups.com

Sweet (Clean) Treats Made right here in OKC from bean to bar, Good Girl Chocolate produces exceptional truffles, bars and caramels you can feel extra good about gifting (and eating!). In the midst of her own health journey, founder Dr. Tabatha Carr, ND, created candies that are dairy free, gluten free, soy free, non GMO and use organic, plant-based sweeteners. So delicious they were featured in the Grammy’s gifting lounge and on QVC, choose from truffles (from 5 to 36 piece sets) in flavors like caramel cake, cookie dough and pecan fudge and decadent chocolate bars like brownie batter and dark fudge with almonds. goodgirlchocolate.com

As the largest and oldest independent bookstore in Oklahoma, Full Circle carries a wide range of titles in every genre imaginable, and staff members are happy to make recommendations based on your recipient’s interests.

Gifts beyond the box

Art Aficionados Oklahoma City Museum of Art With frequently changing exhibitions featuring world-renowned artists and collections, repeat visits to OKCMOA are a must. Kids 17 and under always get in free, and with an individual ($60) or dual ($100) membership, adults can enjoy free admission, too. Members also receive discounted rates for film tickets, programs, special events and the museum store, plus invitations to preview new exhibitions before the general public. okcmoa.com

If you could use less stuff in your life this holiday season, consider gifting (and requesting!) experiences instead. Whether for your kids, a family on your shopping list or even grandparents, local attraction memberships encourage time together, learning and adventure all year long.
