Children & Baby Gift Guide

This gift guide was one of the first I released this year. I was especially inspired this year to create this gift guide thanks to my beautiful baby girl, but also in part to the deeper understanding I now have of how hard it is to physically make it out to Target/Walmart/etc with a baby/toddler. Good news busy moms: everything on this list is Amazon prime. You’re welcome.

  1. Baby Einstein Music Toy: Great for car rides, grocery shopping, running errands. This is a personal favorite of Livvy’s.
  2. Multi pack of baby essentials: One of those “get it all done in one purchase” type of gifts. This set has so many great essentials necessary for baby development.
  3. Shopping cart walker: Perfect for babies who are learning how to/ are walking! My mom purchased this for Livvy for Christmas & I can’t wait for her to be able to use it SO SOON.
  4. Ice cream pretend set: How cute is this pretend play ice cream set up?! I think this would be so fun for any child.
  5. Doctor pretend play set: Pretend play is so important for children and allowing them to explore new things. This fully equipped doctors set is another way for you to have fun with your child. Let them play doctor with you!
  6. Pretend cookie baking set: Can you tell I’m really all about the pretend play sets?! I loved them as a child and I’m fairly certain my mom is or has gotten this for Livvy.
  7. Inflatable water tummy time mat: This is a perfect gift for babies who are working on tummy time! The little foam sea creatures float around and it provides effortless entertainment while allowing their muscles to strengthen.
  8. Playskool Explore and Grow Busy Ball set: This looks like a fun toy for kids to keep them entertained.
  9. Playskool Pop Up Toy: Definitely a fun toy for smaller children, keeps them guessing and on their toes.
  10. Pretend kitchen set: I’m linking this one and this one, one is a little more neutral and the other is super pink– either one are great options.
  11. Baby pop up piano: When baby presses the keys the colors float upwards.
  12. Dancing Mickey: What child doesn’t love Mickey? I’ve had so many of you guys message me on how much your child LOVES this toy so I had to include it!

There’s so many other amazing options, so I’m linking the rest of the gift guide below!

Livvy’s top favorites!

  • Skiphop Hedgehog: We call him “jingly hog” and we basically don’t leave the house without him!
  • Carseat Activity bar: Great way to entertain on the go!
  • Soft blocks: Great for smaller babies and newborns that need softer toys!
  • Activity Cube: Livvy is obsessed with this toy! There are so many gizmos and gadgets on each side that work different sensory areas. Sings and teaches, too!
  • Teether rattle: If you have a teething baby or know someone with a teething baby, get them THIS. Huge lifesaver.
  • Carseat Cover: Livvy has two of these and they’re perfect when she’s napping and we’re running errands, or if I forget her blanket by mistake. Also works as a shopping cart cover, nursing cover, scarf, etc. Multi-functional and a top new mom/baby must have. They come in a number of prints!!
  • Fisher Price dog: Livvy has recently grown attached to this toy and loves that it moves and sings.
  • V Tech Activity Walker: The activity center can detach from the toy so you’re basically getting two for the price of one.
  • These pacis: These are by far our favorite because they’re one piece and EASY TO CLEAN. And because they’re easy to clean, less germs to worry about. These are also extremely durable.

Hope this helps all of my mamas out there! Xoxo.
