Honestly, I can’t tell you how much fun I had putting this particular gift guide together. So many fun and style-conscious finds I can’t wait to give my own children…! This stocking stuffer guide is geared towards children 2-6, give or take, and also contains lots of good stand-alone gifts if you’re looking for a reasonably priced little something to offer children in your life. I will be publishing a stocking stuffer guide for babies (I know many of you have tiny ones this year!) soon!
P.S. Bigger gift guides for children and babies.

P.S. “Something elastic happens to time once you become a mother. An hour can feel like a lifetime, and a year can zip by so quickly it nearly erases itself, and the malapropisms and baby grammar and peek-a-boo along with it. And running straight through (or perhaps an asymptote of or other-geometric-function-whose-name-I-can’t-recall to) those distortions: the wilderness of time as witnessed by a child.” More here.
P.P.S. Some of our current favorite children’s books.
P.P.P.S. Difficult ages.
