Hi, friends! We rounded up a list for the little ones in your life, too! With screens at such a young age, we really tried to keep this list to outdoor or creative play. It's so important that we stretch their imaginations and support their young minds. We also wanted to find gifts that meet your kids' checklist of best, favorite, and necessary. And hopefully, they can play with these all year long so you won't be itching to get rid of the new toys when it comes time to simplify. 

Enjoy the magic with your little ones this season! It really is the most wonderful time of year. Take in their smiles. Hug them a few seconds longer. Gift them with your time away from chores or work. Try not to worry about the mess! Be the adult you loved seeing at holidays as a kid!
