Gift Guide: 6 ideas for the cottagers on your holiday shopping list

Kikkerland Cassette Playing Cards

All cottagers have playing cards at the lake, but do they have dock-ready waterproof playing cards? That look like cassette tapes? (Wait, what’s a “cassette?” Ka-ssett? Are we saying that right?)

Moipejo LED Flashlight Gloves

These one-size-fits-most, lightweight gloves offer a “third helping hand,” that’s useful for, say, finicky DIY jobs that require a flashlight. They also look vaguely like Wolverine’s gloves, but less stabby.

Firefly Pucks Light-Up Hockey Puck

Got a hardcore pond hockey fan in your life? Now they can keep the game going after dark without the risk of lost pucks. Because these ones—activated by movement or vibration—light up. Score!

Zeayea Stainless Steel Butter Wheel

For the cheffy folks who like entertaining crowds, buttering multiple burger buns or corn on the cob is a speedy, tidy task with this gadget. It can also double as a hamster wheel.

Whisper Paddles Acousti-Pads

Cottage pickleballers can now enjoy a rousing lakeside game more quietly. These slide-on pads convert any smacktacularly loud pickleball paddle into a muffled one; the sound-dampening fabric reduces noise by 55 per cent. Shh. $30 USD for a set of two.
