Join us on Zoom for our Lunch & Learn parent ed: Holiday Gift Ideas 2026

Smartphones, gaming consoles, or the latest tech gadget are on our kids’ holiday wish lists every year! It’s best not to gift a smartwatch or smartphone at the holidays so the lines of ownership stay crystal clear and these devices can be set up correctly. 

So… what can we give instead? We will share our favorite screen-free gifts by age group (including for teens!), as well as tech gifts that promote learning, creativity, or serve a specific function. Bring your own favorite gift ideas to share, as well, and let’s get that holiday shopping list done!

Pre-registration required.

Our Lunch & Learn events are moderated by Rebekah Cunningham, our Director of Technology and 1:1 Tech Consultant who works directly with families to help them manage setting up tech use guardrails and boundaries. These sessions are limited to 20 participants to encourage active participation and space to ask questions and learn from each other.

We do not record our virtual Lunch & Learn sessions in order to protect the privacy of our participants. These sessions sometimes include demos on devices that include personal information, and we want parents to feel free to ask questions and share openly.

To preserve this safe space, we also ask that participants refrain from using AI note-taking tools (such as Otter.ai, Fireflies, or similar apps) during our sessions.
