Holiday Cheer, All Year! Our Product Manager’s Top 10 Picks for Team Engagement

Holiday Cheer, All Year! Our Product Manager’s Top 10 Picks for Team Engagement

As a Product Manager at Baudville, I’ve had the unique pleasure of helping curate products that make it easier (and way more fun) to recognize and engage teams. I’ll let you in on a secret: I get to see the impact of these items firsthand, and I know what a game-changer they can be! From recognition awards with a twist to interactive team-building gifts, these are my top picks to spark joy and engagement in any workplace. So, if you’re looking to boost morale and celebrate your team in memorable ways, you’re in the right place!

Celebration Ball Award

Elevate recognition with a wow-worthy award that’s all about appreciation! The Celebration Ball Award is a sleek, eye-catching trophy that comes to life with handwritten notes of thanks from the entire team. It’s the ultimate way to honor someone’s achievements while making sure they know their contributions haven’t gone unnoticed. From project wins to milestone moments, this award is packed with real words of appreciation, making it a powerful and personal reminder of their impact. Give them a standout award that’s as unique and memorable as they are!

 

Gingerbread Cookie Decorating Kits

Everyone loves a good DIY project and what better way than being able to eat your project after. I highly recommend our Gingerbread Cookie Decorating Kits. The perfect corporate gift for spreading cheer and gratitude. Each kit features three delightfully spiced gingerbread cookies, and everything needed to decorate them, from vibrant icing to colorful candy toppings. Filled with the tastes and nostalgia of the season, these cookie kits inspire creativity and connection at every holiday party, meeting, or remote team event

 

Celebration Serving Board

The Celebration Serving Board is beautiful, versatile, and brings a refreshing nod to work-life balance. Try making it the star of a fun team-building activity—set up a decorating contest where employees fill their boards with favorite treats, charcuterie, or creative displays. Everyone can vote on the best design, and the winner takes home extra bragging rights or a special prize! It’s a gift that your team will enjoy long after the event, adding a touch of style and warmth to their gatherings with family and friends.

 

Designed for Growth Perpetual Trophy

This trophy is a must-have for creating a “winning culture” in your organization. It’s perfect for tracking milestones, recognizing top sales, or commemorating years of service. As a Product Manager, I love seeing the pride this brings to people who truly make an impact. When you start stacking wins on this trophy, it becomes a symbol of growth and teamwork everyone can rally around.

Appreciation Plant Cubes

Here’s a unique way to add a little green to your team’s desk! The Appreciation Plant Cube has everything you need to start a mini plant—seeds, peat pellet, and a wooden holder. They’re easy to care for, fun to grow, and a little friendly “green-thumb” competition is a great way to encourage wellness and brighten up any workspace.

 

Winter Wellness Gift Sets

Take wellness to the next level with our Winter Wellness Gift Sets!  Bring a little calm and focus to any workspace with a sleek desktop diffuser and trio of signature essential oils. This gift delivers both appreciation and a wellness boost—perfect for reminding employees their efforts truly matter.

 

Character Champions Collection Trophies

Let’s face it—who wouldn’t want a “GOAT” or “Top Dog” trophy on their desk? These trophies add a playful, competitive edge to your recognition program. They’re lighthearted, but they pack a serious punch when it comes to boosting morale. Plus, they make for fun conversation starters, and team members feel a real sense of pride when they get to show them off.

 

Festive Nordic Mug Gift Sets

Just in time for the holidays, these Nordic mugs are the perfect way to spread a little cheer! With a gold spoon, bamboo handle, and elegant packaging, they’re an ideal choice for year-end celebrations. For an extra-special touch, consider adding an engraved bamboo lid featuring your company logo, creating a memorable keepsake. Take it up a notch by organizing a festive treat station where employees can fill their mugs with goodies, making this a truly unforgettable holiday gift experience.

The Marblewood Award

This trophy is all about celebrating accomplishments. I’ve seen this become a company-wide symbol of success, motivating people to strive for that next milestone. It’s simple yet powerful and gives everyone a visible reminder of their achievements. Perfect for those moments when a high-five just doesn’t cut it! Honor those that persevered and kept the ship stable with this elegant and unique trophy for your top performers!

 

Hidden Appreciation Mugs

Last but certainly not least, our Hidden Appreciation Mugs are just pure fun! Inside each mug is a hidden 3D surprise—a GOAT, Rock Star, or Top Performer figure—making every coffee break a little more special. These mugs add a unique twist to your appreciation gifts and give team members an extra reason to feel valued every day.
