Hey there,
So I don’t know about you, but I have been really struggling with what to get my girls for Christmas this year. The “it” toys just don’t appeal to me and to be honest I know they get played with for all of 5 minutes and promptly abandoned to the toy box. The girls are 5 and 3 and I feel like it keeps getting harder every year. Kinda like parenting in general, funny how that works. I still don’t know what to get my own kids, but thought this might help you with yours. These are past Christmas gifts that my girls play with EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. No lie! Hope it helps.
one. // two. // three. // four. // five. // six. // seven. // eight. // nine.
one. // This one is a no brainer. If your kids don’t have a play kitchen yet, you are seriously missing out on some quiet time. We don’t have this exact one, but looking back, I would totally get this one because — storage!
two. // I didn’t expect these to be as big of a hit as it is, but my girls play with them so much. They use them to take food orders, too, so perfect to go along with the kitchen.
three. // We got this camera for Sophie’s last birthday. She loves it. We give her film as rewards for really good behavior or when we’re feeling generous. ha. It’s so fun to see the world as she views it.
four. // We got this play table for Sophie before Eloise was even born. There are tons of cute tutorials on Pinterest on how to make it unique for your space or you can leave it natural too.
five. // Eloise for sure uses this more than Sophie. She’s our little bag lady and fills the cart up with all her puppies and pushes it all around the house. This is a sturdy, well made toy that will for sure last through multiple children.
six. // The girls love their mice. They are very well made and they have races across the floor on them or sit on them to watch tv and sometimes even eat snacks on. Sophie is perfecting her spin move and Eloise is really just working on counting down from 3 to begin the “race.”
seven. // This playhouse is adorable. If you have a child who loves to with dolls, then this is a great bet. So beautifully made.
eight. // Both girls love to draw. Sophie has started practicing all the things she’s learning in Kindergarten and Elle draws 95% on this, 5% on something else we own. Progress.
nine. // Santa usually brings one of the for each girl in their stocking. It helps with bath time, seriously. If you have kids who whine about every damn bath they have to take, get some.
So I’m curious, what are you getting your kids this year?
