For those of you who are on a holiday crunch and still looking for the perfect present for your littles, I wanted to make a quick round up of my current favorites–
Stocking Stuffers
Nailmatic–These nail polishes are my daughter’s absolute favorite and also my favorite. She loves the fun colors and designs and I love the fact that they dry in seconds and come right off with warm water. They’re non-toxic and so kid friendly!
Wunderkin bows and bowties–We just love their bows because they are not only beautiful to look at but guaranteed for LIFE. Which means your little ones can frolic and play as hard as they want, and they will re-tie and ship it back to you for free!
Doughlicious–We love these playdohs! They’re all natural and we love how soft the texture is and vibrant the colors are.
The Adventures of Lily Huckleberry–This is a current favorite book for Dannica. It is about a sweet little girl who travels all across Scandinavia in search of strawberries. With stunning illustrations, the story will surely inspire your little ones on their own adventure (whether big or small)! ***For more book recommendations (for both boys and girls, for all different occasions and life stages, be sure to check out Dannica’s Book Recommendation on our IGTV page @aenny04 right in front of all the highlights).
Builder Brothers: Big Plans–Do you love HGTV/Property Brothers? Well they co-authored the most adorable children’s book about little kids dreaming big, doing big things, and not giving up when things go awry. I love the message it sends and you will to!
Socks & Tights–We love gorgeous designs by Little Light Feet, and Dannica lives in her simple tights from Janie & Jack (they’re the best for simple classic lightweight stockings).
School Supplies–We ADORE anything from YOOBI and LOVE LOVE LOVE anything from OOLY!
This mini kit is ONLY 4.99 and comes with all these cute mini school supplies! You can also click on stock stuffers right on their main menu to look for other fun school supplies 🙂
And these candy neon markers are from OOLY and they’re only 4.99! But they have so many other adorable markers, crayons, pens and coloring kits/DIY kits!
Other Ideas for stocking stuffers: Bandaids, Magnatiles, gloves, bracelets and other accessories (Target has so many fun ones), stickers, bubble bath products (we adore Wash With Water products–they smell glorious and are so soft and gentle on baby skin) and bath time toys, and fun and cozy slippers to wear on Christmas Day!
Presents
Personalized artwork–we love the ones from Sally & Piper and Kasey Cauliflower. You can have one done of your littles with their favorite dolls or toys so that they can cherish it forever and you can too!

Cuddle + Kind Dolls–we adore their dolls. My daughter never goes to bed without one and whenever we travel, we always bring one along. They are so soft and cuddly and make for the sweetest companion for your little one. We also love that for each doll purchased, they give back ten meals to children in need.
Tea Sets–Rose & Rex have beautiful tea sets that will inspire your little one to host many a parties!
Explorer Set–Rose & Rex also have these beautiful explorer set. Perfect for inspiring your little one to go out on adventures!
Trampoline–It seems simplistic but kids seem to LOVE it. It is the one toy that gets the most use around our house and we love it because it keeps little ones active while taking up minimal space.
ANYTHING from the Hearth & Hand Collection–they have something WONDERFUL for kiddos at every age from their fun dollhouses to play kitchens to chess sets.
ANYTHING by Moulin Roty–they have the most beautiful heirloom toys that your children will want to pass down to their children. They’re all thoughtfully made and designed to encourage your little ones to explore and learn.
For the Splurge
Banwood Balance Bikes–perfect for those who are just beginning to ride a bike or learning to ride a bike.
Bobbin Bikes–for those who don’t love balance bikes, they make the most amazing bicycles with training wheels that will grow with your child. Bonus–they are GORGEOUS to look at!
Playhouse–My daughter absolutely loves her playhouse, and it is such a great way to have your little ones to go out and play and use their imagination.
Melissa & Doug Work Bench–Great for those who love to tinker and build and stretch their construction skills. I also love the ones by Black & Decker Jr (complete with matching tool belt and hard hat!)
Play Kitchen–There are SO many amazing ones out there (we have a DIY one from Ikea), but I particularly love this one because the price point is pretty amazing and it comes with all the bells and whistles (fridge, window, even a washing machine!! EVERYTHING)!!
Unicorn Ponycycle–These are all the new rage among children right now…The first ride on in the world powered by human motion simulation, which allows minis to exercise and ride around the pony without batteries. Instead of children riding on rocking horses which keep the rider in one spot, the PonyCycle Unicorn allows minis to ride to wherever they want, like riding on a real horse. They can ride indoors or outdoors on level ground. It works by gently bouncing up and down on the saddle. Minis make the horse’s legs and head move forward and backward…–Maisonette
