Christmas Shopping in the UAE: Easy Holiday Decor & Plush Gifts Kids Will Love
Christmas is close, and if you’re looking for Christmas gift ideas for kids in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and across the UAE, you probably want two things: something that makes the house feel festive, and something little hands will actually hug. Here at HaloLife we’ve pulled together our favourite holiday picks from two collections: RoomMates peel-and-stick wall decals and LEGO plush characters by Manhattan Toys.
Whether you rent, live in a villa or share a room with siblings, there’s no ladder, glue or drilling needed. Let’s dive in.
Why Wall Decals Are the Smartest Christmas Decor for Rentals
Most UAE homes are apartments or rentals, so damaging walls is a worry. RoomMates decals are removable, repositionable and damage-free: you simply peel and stick them onto any smooth, flat surface, and they lift off cleanly without leaving residue. That means you can decorate the nursery, playroom or bedroom in minutes, rearrange until it looks right, and take it all down on 2 January with zero repainting.
Christmas Characters & Scenes for Kids’ Rooms
If your little ones love winter characters, start here. Each set peels and sticks in minutes.
• Build a Snowman Wall Decals: let kids create their own snowman on the wall, no snow required in the Gulf.
• Frozen Olaf the Snow Man Wall Decals: a favourite for Frozen fans.
• Santa Claus Wall Decals: bring Santa straight into the bedroom.
• Merry Christmas Reindeer Antlers Wall Decals (4 decals): a playful, quick festive touch.
• Polar Christmas Wall Decals (27 decals): arctic animals for a full winter scene.
• Watercolor Winter Deer Wall Decals: a softer, calmer look for nurseries.
Quote & Statement Decals for a Stylish Holiday Look
Prefer a more grown-up festive feel? Words on the wall look great above a sofa, bed or console, and they’re just as easy to apply and remove.
• Merry Christmas Quote Wall Decals (20 decals)
• All Is Calm, All Is Bright Quote Wall Decals
• Happy Holidays Quote Wall Decals with Glitter
• Christmas Cacti Wall Decals (27 decals): a fun, modern twist on the tree.
Bonus: a countdown that works all year
The Calendar Peel and Stick Dry Erase Wall Decal is writable and reusable. Use it as an Advent countdown for the kids in December, then as a family planner, homework tracker or home-office schedule for the rest of the year.
Plush Gifts: LEGO Characters by Manhattan Toys
For under-the-tree surprises, soft collectible plush is a safe bet for boys and girls. These LEGO character plush toys double as room decor once the wrapping paper is gone.
• LEGO Santa Plush (23.9 cm): the festive favourite.
• LEGO Gingerbread Man Plush (23.9 cm): cute, cuddly and impossible to crumble.
• LEGO NINJAGO Kai Plush: one for the little ninja.
• LEGO Butterfly Girl Plush: a sweet, fantasy-inspired pick.
• LEGO Chicken Suit Guy Plush (15.2 cm): the funny stocking filler.
Holiday Shopping Tips for the UAE
• Order early. Delivery is quick within the UAE, but December is busy, so don’t leave it to the last week.
• Mix a gift and a decor piece. A plush for the stocking plus a decal set for the room makes a complete present.
• Check the Offers page for current deals before you check out.
• Use code HALO20 for 20% off your first 3 orders (full-price items only, and it can’t be combined with other offers).
