If your looking for some fun gift ideas for your kids this year these are a few of our families favorites. Many of these brands are ones that our family has used and loved to years! I hope you guys find the perfect gift for your little ones this year!

1. Cuddle and Kind- I love that this company really stands behind the “kind” in their name. All of their dolls are fair trade and for every doll purchased 10 meals are donated to a child who is hungry. You can’t beat the heirloom quality of these beautiful dolls and nothing looks cuter than a cuddle and kind friend peaking it’s head out of a stocking on Christmas morning. 

2. Little Live Pets- I have yet to meet a little kid that doesn’t love to take care of fluffly baby animals. This baby koala “comes to life” and makes the cutest little expressions. You can wrap her up and even give her a pacifier to put her to sleep. I have a feeling this is going to be a favorite under our tree this year. 

3. Wee Gallery- If you want toys your kids will love to play with but double for adorable nursery décor then you need to check out wee gallery. Some of my girls favorite books and toys have come from this company and I think this bamboo nesting hedgehog is one of their cutest toys yet! 

4. Feltman Brothers – I have been more than a little in love with the sweet knit outfits and hand embroidered designs by the Feltman Brothers ever since I discovered them two years ago. You truly can’t beat their quality and these unique pieces make perfect gifts for all the little’s on your list! 

5. Schleigh- This totally beats the chocolate advent calendars I got as a kid. Schleigh has a few advent calendars to choose from with a fun little toy to discover every day leading up to Christmas. My daughter is obsessed with horses at the moment so I knew this was a must! 

6. Koolaburra Boots- I just love the little bow details on the Koolaburra boots for girls. They are so warm, comfortable and easy to put on (anything without laces is a win in my book for getting out of the house in the morning!). These are always worth every penny in our house because my girls live in them all fall and winter long! 

7. American Girl- It’s no secret that American Girl Doll is one of our all time favorites. Not only does it bring back so many nostalgic memories for me of playing with my Samantha doll as a kid, but it’s so fun watching my daughters imagination run wild with all the intricately designed accessories for her dolls. It’s possible that I might have gotten her this tea time table (complete with tiny macaroons and tea sandwiches) primarily because I want to play with it too, but we just won’t tell her that. 

8. Koolaburra Slippers- Again, I can’t help but love twinnign with my little. I have had the matching adult pair of Koolaburra slippers for years and finally decided to grab a pair for my 5 year old. Their slippers are so warm and cozy with a tread on the bottom which makes the perfect for wearing out of the house for a quick errand or two. You can’t beat the quality so they make great hand-me-downs for younger siblings! 

9. Crazy Aarons- Crazy Aarons scented putty is not only super fun to play with but it’s a fantastic tool to help kids with mindfulness and attentiveness. If your child has a hard time sitting still to focus, giving them a putty to play with that engages both the sense of touch and smell can help them to sit and listen more attentively. You can also lead them through mindfulness exercises as the stretch and smell the putty!

10. Monica + Andy - Not only do Monica + Andy have the most adorable little prints for kids but their pieces are all GOTS certified, organic cotton. Their pieces are made to hold up and come out of the wash looking brand new every time. We have been shopping with them for years so we can totally vouch for the quality!

11. Lovevery- If you want age appropriate, Montessori based toys for your little one that will help their development as they play then you need to check out Lovevery! They make specialized boxes for you childs age range full of the perfect activities for their development. They have amazing toys to choose from as well like their wooden stroller or this incredible block set that we got for my youngest this year. Trust me when I say I researched block sets for her and couldn’t find anything close to this one! 

12. Haba-If your not familiar with HABA they make some of the sweetest toys that are perfect for kids development at any age. From wooden toys and board games to the sweetest little friends sets they are a brand worth checking out for your gifting this year. My girls love camping and their grandfather has a camping van that they are a bit obsessed with. This adorable little friends camper seemed like the perfect gift to put on the list this year.  

 13. Tubby Todd- Because your kids need a little bubbly to celebrate this holiday season as well don’t you think? Tubby Todd is a forever favorite around our house. I have been using this super clean kids line since my oldest was born and we have yet to find products we love more. I trust what’s in their products and I only wish I had a dime for every time my girls asked for “MORE BUBBLE BATH!”. 

14. Sperry- Winter wouldn’t be winter if I didn’t grab a pair of Sperry Duck boots for my girls! I may have gotten the same pair in the adult size for myself as well because they are just too cute not to twin. It’s a great excuse to buy yourself and your kiddos a nice pair of boots for under the Christmas tree! 

 15. Snow pets- These snow pets make the cutest little stocking stuffers. Once you unwrap them you fill the top hole with water and then it opens to find a snow filled little pal in the center. It’s a pretty magical gift for any kid! 

Happy shopping and Merry Christmas!
