Are you ready for the holidays? The last month has been a steady bombardment of toy catalogs and festive TV commercials, so I don’t exactly feel like I have a choice. My kids are getting more and more excited each day!
There are so many gift options out there for our kiddos! So how do we know what to choose?
I’ve put together a gift guide to make shopping for your tiny humans a little easier! These are all items that my family currently owns, my children will be receiving for Christmas this year or come highly recommended from other mommies I know.
My daughters are in preschool and kindergarten, so this list is geared roughly toward ages two to six. You’ll also notice nothing is gender specific. Whatever your child’s interests, you’ll find something that works for them!
Before you dive into this list, don’t forget to consider the space available in your home and your budget this year. Giving children presents is a fun tradition, but your presence and peace of mind are the most meaningful gifts you can offer!
With all of that in mind, Happy Shopping!
