But, Santa, Naughty Is Nice! Gift Suggestions from Babeland

by William S. Dean
(11/30/05)

It's that time of the year again, you know. Your senses begin tingling. There's the scent of spices in the air. Your ears hear the wafting of carols and jingling bells. The frosty air nips at your nose and toes, and your fingers just start itching to tear off that lovely gift paper and see what goodies lie within. Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, whatever your holiday is called -- it's on its way!

Tis the season for giving and getting. But, lo! There's always that dread, too. What'll I get to give, you ponder, and the thoughts chase away those dancing sugarplum fairies, don't they? Your gifts have to have that twisty panache of being both cool and hot, useful and fun, exciting and yet not ephemeral. What to do, what to do? Be not confused, gift-givers, there are easy solutions and Babeland (formerly Toys in Babeland) can help in your present dilemmas.

Imagine the sparkle in your sweetie's eyes, for example, when you gift her with Babeland's G-Spot Jingle set! Specifically designed with a Nubby G vibrator, perfectly angled to hit her G-spot. But that's not all. There's also the elegant, curved. transparent Lumina Wand. Not sure how to use them or to find that magic Geeeee! spot? No problem. You can explore all the possibilities for G-spot joy, with the enclosed book on the topic, The Good Vibrations Guide to the G-Spot. Unlike many toys, batteries are included, along with a 4 oz bottle of Babeland lube, and a condom. Jingle all the way to her G-spot and hear her murmur, "Oh, baby! You really do care!"

Another fav G-spot toy for the holidays is the classy Liberte. This elegant, ergonomically shaped vibrator is made by Candida Royalle and has three speeds and a special pulse control. The Liberte measures 8" long by 1 1/4" in diameter and operates on two AA batteries. You'll be crying out "Give me Liberte!" like a real French sans culottes (loose translation: without pants).

For those who wait up all night for the patter of eight tiny reindeer on the rooftop, Babeland has not forgotten you. There's the Up All Night holiday kit, which includes a Mini Sterling Vibe, the Sonic Ring vibrating cock ring, a Lil Flirt butt plug, and a brightly-colored Sorbet Slimline vibe. To while away the hours, there's also the fun Sex Questions card game, a lube sampler pack and, yes, more batteries!

If you're like us, you can never actually wait until Christmas Day dawns. We'd always get to open one small present on Christmas Eve, and what better gift than your stuffed stocking? But instead of the usual fruit, nuts, and candy, Babeland presents its inexpensive Sexy Stocking Stuffer gift kit to whet your appetite or even satisfy it temporarily.

Your lover, fuckbuddy, or friend will delight in the new Babelight. It's a flashlight, no, a keychain, no, a vibrator, it's three gifts in one! This pink mini-vibe is a real teaser-pleaser and in the dark can spotlight those naughty places while it stimulates them. Your stocking will also be stuffed with a Megastretch Cock Ring, and a Dirty Dice game that will have you giggling like lascivious elves all night long. Think that's not enough? Babeland agrees. That's why the Stocking Stuffer includes one AAA battery for the mini-vibe, two Babeland condoms and a 1 oz bottle of Babeland lube. All for twenty bucks? You bet! So much better than that tea towel or pair of socks, wouldn't you say?

What would the holidays be without sweet treats to eat? Babeland has come up with a yummy safe-sex alternative to fattening candy and cakes. It's Blo Condoms. Natural flavors and minimal lube add up to some delicious treats. Blo condoms aren't overpowering or syrupy like most flavored versions, and -- more importantly -- have none of that latex condom aftertaste. Get the three pack and lick your lips (and elsewhere) for vanilla, strawberry, and banana. Now, if only, they came in chocolate!

You can order from Babeland online, of course, but if you're lucky enough to live near a Babeland store, located in Seattle, WA, Manhattan's Lower East Side and Soho district, and the newly-opened Babeland Los Angeles, you can stroll the aisles for suggestive gifts and take advantage of the happy, helpful elves' advice there. Once, you've got all your gifts for lovers, family, and friends, why, you can treat yourself to a special holiday gift for your very special friend: you!

So, get your list and zip (or is that unzip?) on over to Babeland and check out all their new toys, lubes, and assorted naughty goodies. Get your Ho Ho Ho's before the mad shopping rush on Christmas Eve!
