2021 Gift Guide - For Curious and Creative Kids
My first gift guide this season is for the curious and creative kid! Of course my kids have a list full of items from big box stores, with commercial characters, but I like to supplement those wishlists with toys and games that evoke curiosity and creativity. I poked around some of my favorite shops for some surprise, out of the box ideas for the kiddos.
DIY Snow globe making kit - perfect for one of those bitter cold days when you are stuck inside.
Ruth Bader Ginsburg Trailblazer doll - kitschy and cute, these icon dolls are so darn fun!
personalized kids memory book - love everything that Pinhole Press does, and these memory prompt books are no exception. 15 blank pages to get your kid’s juices flowing
skyline chess set - my son has been dabbling with chess and this set would be a major upgrade from the plastic and cardboard version he’s been learning on.
Harry Potter book set - In the past year my son and I have bonded over reading Harry Potter together. I never read these books growing up, but it’s been so fun discovering their magic together.
Gratitude box - every kid (and grown up too) can use a reminder of the need to be grateful. This box contains prompts, activities and crafts to cultivate a grateful attitude.
Spirograph set - Hello nostalgia! I absolutely loved this toy growing up and I bet my kids would too.
The Family Adventure Challenge - This adorable scratch-off book contains adventure ideas for a whole year!
spend, save, give bank -Trying to teach my kids about finances is a goal. Think this bank will help littles learn and how to make smart financial decisions.

I love sharing my personal wish list with you every year! For the past DECADE I’ve been rounding up the items that top my personal list. They often range from home goods to accessories and as you’ll see below even a power tool or two. This year I’m craving all things to elevate our home - a new set of matching mugs, new pair of slippers and books from two of my favorite designers!
