But what if we extended our holiday cheer to our favorite teleserye characters? They’ve been through so much drama (literally), and we can’t help but think they also deserve some thoughtful gifts to make their holidays a little brighter, or at least less complicated.</p><p>So, here’s our list of the perfect Christmas gifts for these unforgettable Kapamilya teleserye characters of 2024.</p><div><br/></div><div><strong>Iris: Box of sweets</strong></div><p>The perennially miffed Iris Buenavidez (Janine Gutierrez) of &quot;<a href="http://abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/lavenderfields" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong><em>Lavender Fields</em></strong></a>&quot; is like a volcano on the verge of eruption. Remember when she declared, “Kesa mapunta ka sa iba, mamatay na lang tayong lahat”? Absolutely next-level madwoman vibes! Being the daughter of a syndicate leader, &#x27;kamalditahan&#x27; practically runs in her veins. But, besides having a sharp tongue, the girl is obsessed, especially with her husband Tyrone (Jericho Rosales). So, when her husband fell out of love with her and had an affair, her life has been drenched in bitterness.</p><script data-wid="auto" type="text/javascript" src="https://content.viralize.tv/display/?zid=AAEyze-tm4MR6kEa&amp;cid=ABODoe7ZKItUcRNX&amp;activation=click&amp;vip_mode=playing&amp;vip_position=bottom-right"></script><p>A box of sweets feels like the perfect gift to sprinkle some much-needed sugar into her world. Who knows? Maybe a taste of sweetness will soften her rough edges and remind her that not everything in life has to be as bitter as her heartbreak.</p><div><br/></div><div><strong>Lavender: Chess set</strong></div><p>If revenge were a sport, Lavender Fields or Jasmin Flores (Jodi Sta Maria), from &quot;<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/lavenderfields" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong><em>Lavender Fields</em></strong></a>,&quot; would be a strong contender for championship. Locking horns with the Buenavidez clan is like playing the ultimate game of mental warfare. So, a chess set would help hone her strategic skills.</p><script data-wid="auto" type="text/javascript" src="https://content.viralize.tv/display/?zid=AAEyze-tm4MR6kEa&amp;cid=ABOENZZdAkeEE9y0&amp;activation=click&amp;vip_mode=playing&amp;vip_position=bottom-right"></script><div><br/></div><div><strong>Marites: Endless hugs</strong></div><p>Marites Dimaguiba (Cherry Pie Picache) has endured so much—betrayals, near-death experiences, and unending family drama in &quot;<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/batangquiapo" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong><em>FPJ&#x27;s Batang Quiapo</em></strong></a>.&quot; What she needs more than anything is a little comfort and a reminder that she’s loved. Endless hugs would be the ultimate gift to help her heal and feel all the warmth she truly deserves. And maybe we&#x27;ll give her a box of tissue because she&#x27;s crying all the time!</p><script data-wid="auto" type="text/javascript" src="https://content.viralize.tv/display/?zid=AAEyze-tm4MR6kEa&amp;cid=ABQgm3kTNBUoqsYM&amp;activation=click&amp;vip_mode=playing&amp;vip_position=bottom-right"></script><div><br/></div><div><strong>Tanggol: DNA testing kit</strong></div><p>When will Tanggol Dimaguiba (Coco Martin) cross paths with Ramon Montenegro (Christopher de Leon) again and finally uncover the truth that he is his father in &quot;<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/batangquiapo" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong><em>FPJ&#x27;s Batang Quiapo</em></strong></a>&quot;? Viewers have been waiting forever for this game-changing development in Tanggol&#x27;s narrative. And if a DNA testing kit would help these characters get there, it&#x27;d be an exciting present for all of us, too, who&#x27;ve been dying for that moment.</p><script data-wid="auto" type="text/javascript" src="https://content.viralize.tv/display/?zid=AAEyze-tm4MR6kEa&amp;cid=ABGHfozPvIcSl7L1&amp;activation=click&amp;vip_mode=playing&amp;vip_position=bottom-right"></script><div><br/></div><div><strong>Tindeng: Personalized &#x27;balisong&#x27;</strong></div><p>While Tindeng Asuncion (Charo Santos) is the epitome of pure religious devotion in &quot;<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/batangquiapo" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong><em>FPJ&#x27;s Batang Quiapo</em></strong></a>,&quot; let’s not forget that she’s also fiercely palaban. Who could forget the moment she pulled out a balisong (folding knife) from her pocket to face thieves in one episode, and then stood her ground against Lena</p><p>(Mercedes Cabral) in another? So, maybe it&#x27;s time we gift her another balisong, which is practical for self-defense, but with a symbol of her faith. After all, who says you can’t be both holy and fearless?</p><script data-wid="auto" type="text/javascript" src="https://content.viralize.tv/display/?zid=AAEyze-tm4MR6kEa&amp;cid=ABHi3MKkUPVtg6qd&amp;activation=click&amp;vip_mode=playing&amp;vip_position=bottom-right"></script><div><br/></div><div><strong>Moises: Running shoes</strong></div><p>Moises Malonzo (Kyle Echarri) had been running—literally—for most of &quot;<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/pamilyasagrado" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong><em>Pamilya Sagrado</em></strong></a>,&quot; whether it’s escaping from the wicked members of the GSX frat and Sagrado clan (which turned out to be his family, too) or chasing down the truth. His poor old sneakers must be begging for &#x27;retirement&#x27; at this point. So, he definitely deserves a new pair of running shoes, along with a peaceful Christmas with his love, Maxene (Daniela Stranner). A sleek drafting kit would also be a nice present for a budding architect with big dreams.</p><script data-wid="auto" type="text/javascript" src="https://content.viralize.tv/display/?zid=AAEyze-tm4MR6kEa&amp;cid=ABN2nXD7eWXP-YOb&amp;activation=click&amp;vip_mode=playing&amp;vip_position=bottom-right"></script><div><br/></div><div><strong>Juliana: A cup of coffee</strong></div><p>As one of the boldest, fearless &#x27;kabits&#x27; of 2024, Juliana Lualhati (Kim Chiu)’s decisions have left us all shaking our heads more times than we can count. Maybe she needs a strong cup of coffee &#x27;para kabahan naman.&#x27; Or at least it might wake her up enough to avoid repeating her mistakes. Here’s to hoping caffeine is the answer!</p><script data-wid="auto" type="text/javascript" src="https://content.viralize.tv/display/?zid=AAEyze-tm4MR6kEa&amp;cid=AA7rMeA1rUQwmuZ1&amp;activation=click&amp;vip_mode=playing&amp;vip_position=bottom-right"></script><div><br/></div><div><strong>Bingo and Ling: Binondo date<em></em></strong></div><p>This would be BingLing&#x27;s first Christmas as a married couple! Bingo (Donny Pangilinan) and Caroline (Belle Mariano)&#x27;s love story started in the bustling streets of Binondo. What better gift than a romantic trip back to where it all began? A Binondo date would be perfect! Sometimes, the best presents are the ones that remind us of the magic of love.</p><script data-wid="auto" type="text/javascript" src="https://content.viralize.tv/display/?zid=AAEyze-tm4MR6kEa&amp;cid=AA5hCde9fLDt4j3q&amp;activation=click&amp;vip_mode=playing&amp;vip_position=bottom-right"></script><p>Christmas is the season of giving, and these gifts, while imaginary, are a fun way to think about what our beloved teleserye characters need most. After all, they’ve entertained us throughout the year; it’s only fair we send them some love this holiday season!</p>
