I get in some of your answers and they are helpful, but we may also have to consider the coin in question, bitcoin may not be treated exactly the same way as physical fiat or cash, because its entirely digital, therefore we may only adopt any means that can help the targeted recipient find it interesting to receive bitcoin as Christmas gift in physical, maybe we can dive into the Casascius bitcoin and the like which are physical bitcoin and other requests like that of the use of paper wallet for gifting bitcoin and solving of puzzles to get reward in bitcoin on users bitcoin address and many more.


We may first need to share them with the idea of bitcoin and they have to understand what  bitcoin is and how they can make use of it, this will make them not to receive bitcoin and then later lose it for not been aware of some certain things about handling it, when we gift them, we should be ready to teach them, or we teach before we gift them bitcoin.
