If you regularly read my blog, or follow me on any of my social media channels, you know that I'm a hockey mom to three hockey-loving boys. Every year, there are several hockey-related items on my Christmas shopping list, so today, I am sharing my top 10 gift ideas for hockey fans and hockey players. There really is something on this list for all ages and budgets.

1) Gongshow Gear - My kids and I LOVE this high quality clothing line, so it's no surprise it made my top ten list again. This year, my boys favourites are the hoodies, pants, and shirts pictured below. The Gongshow clothing is high quality and the designs are always fantastic. We have several items that have been handed down from my oldest to my youngest, and they still look brand new. You can check out all the fantastic styles available for Christmas 2023 here.

Here's my youngest wearing the Post Skate Jogs. Great pants for an active teenager!

Here's my oldest wearing the 1st Round Standard Long Sleeve shirt. I love it!

And here's my middle son wearing the Rink is Calling hoodie. If you look closely, you can see the sherpa lining. So cozy!!!! (And perfect for kids that are too cool to wear a winter jacket. lol)

2) Summer Skates - I love these sandals in the summer... but they are also perfect for hotel stays during hockey season. You can order: custom logos, NHL players, real laces, special edition options, and custom numbers. They make fantastic gifts, and the company also offers team fundraising options. Take a peek at all the styles, and place your order here.

Here are a few of our favourites...

Original summer skates... available in 7 different colours.

The Hip - Canada Flag Road Sign - part of the brand partners collection.

NHL Player Summer Skates - Of course we have Auston Matthews (and a matching skate lace beverage holder).

3) Ollie Bots - These cute little wooden robots are made with love and tied together with hockey skate laces. The Ollie Bots project was started by my son's buddy and teammate (Oliver Smith) who sadly passed away at the age of 12 to a rare form of bone cancer. For a $20 donation, you can help raise funds and awareness for Ewing Sarcoma. Find out more here. 

3) NHL24 - If your hockey fan loves video games, you probably already have the latest version of this game on your Christmas shopping list. Grab a copy here.

4) Hockey books - Books always make fantastic gifts, and hockey books are perfect for hockey fans. Check out the wonderful option here.

5) Personalized Hockey Ornaments - I love a personalized, handmade gift, don't you? I make these high quality tree ornaments in my online shop, and you can order them here for only $10. (Shipping anywhere in Canada for $3.)

6)  Hockey Blanket - This cozy blanket is great for a hockey player to take on the road, or for a hockey parent to cuddle up with in the stands. You can purchase it from Amazon here.

7) Hockey Player Funko Pops - These are such adorable collectibles, and they make a fun and inexpensive Christmas gift. Of course, Auston Matthews is a favourite around here, and you can purchase it here.

8) Wall decals from Oliver's Labels - Personalized wall decals make wonderful gifts for kids. And, and how cute is this large jersey wall decal? Use my link here, and save 10% with code: EastCoastMommy.

9) Hockey Nightlight - This is such a cool nightlight for a hockey fan... and they make them for goalies AND players. Check out all the options for sale on Amazon here.

And... if you are local to Antigonish, you can purchase these colour changing personalized LED lights (with remotes) in my store here.

Any one of the these TEN products would make a wonderful gift for the hockey fan or hockey player on your Christmas list. My boys and I have tried most of these items, so if you have any questions, please just let me know!

Happy shopping!!!
