Give the gift of Disney Plus this holiday season. This streaming service provides customers with access to a vast library of Disney’s and Fox’s legacy content, plus exclusive movies, documentaries, TV shows and more. You can purchase this gift for just $6.99 a month and enjoy it in the comfort of your own home. Share it with others to reminisce on old favorites! 

Shelby Buyalos hopes to get Disney Plus this holiday season.

“As soon as it came out I wanted it because it has some of my favorite old TV shows,” Buyalos says. “I would definitely use it all the time so it would be a perfect gift.”

The Dyson Supersonic hairdryer is another purchase perfect for the holidays. It is engineered for fast drying with intelligent heat control in order to protect hair from getting damaged. With great reviews and a variety of colors to choose from, you can’t go wrong with this gift.

Senior student Julia Daigle has researched the Dyson hairdryer and added it to her Christmas list. 

“It’s super light-weight and is supposed to dry your hair much faster than other hairdryers,” Daigle says. “I’ve read a lot about it and definitely want to try it.”

The most recent Tasty book, called Tasty Latest and Greatest: Everything You Want to Cook Right Now, is another great gift. Perfect for all sorts of cooks, this book provides readers with over 80 recipes ranging from comfort food to vegan meals. 

Maeve Sullivan is a senior student who enjoys cooking. She has this book on her wish list and hopes she can try out the recipes. 

“I love to cook and often watch the Tasty videos for ideas,” Sullivan says. “Getting the cookbook would be nice so I can have some of my favorite recipes in the same place.” 

Blue light glasses are another popular gift idea this season. Designed to reduce or eliminate digital strain, they are available in a wide variety of styles and are increasing in popularity. 

Maris Kaplan is a senior student who spends hours each day doing work on her computer and is scared of the potential harmful effects. She is hoping to receive blue light glasses as a present.

“I’m staring at a screen for the majority of my day and I know how bad that is,” Kaplan says. “I’ve read about blue light glasses and really want to try them.”
