Welcome to our Holiday Gift Guide 2017!
The holidays are a magical time!
The lights go on in our neighborhoods, holiday music is playing in almost every store, and your kids are (hopefully) being especially nice while waiting to see what Santa might bring.
But with Christmas being closer than ever before, the stress of finding that perfect gift for that particular family member begins to mount! If you’re like us, you’re stretching your brain trying to think of something memorable and significant, but all that pops into your head is that same ol’ tie or pair of slippers you gave last year. It’s time to let San Diego Moms Blog help!
Thanks to our sponsors and contributors, we have collectively come up with a few suggestions for gifts for your friends and family and listed them in our holiday gift guide!
For the family:
Check out these adorable PJ’s from Hanna Andersson.
For over 30 years, kids have played and laughed in Hanna Andersson’s clothing. And our absolute favorite Hanna products? Their pajamas! If you’re on the hunt for matching family pajamas (to wear or to gift) this holiday season, then be sure and check out the San Diego Location (4525 La Jolla Village Dr. San Diego, CA 92122) or shop online. You’ll fall in love with their sweet stripes and fun prints too!
At Tiny Trucker, there is a hat for everyone in the family! With choices for baby, toddlers, moms and dads, you can’t go wrong with a cute hat here in sunny San Diego. Not only are you protecting your little ones faces from that hot sun, but they are also looking adorable while doing it!
Plus- let’s be honest. #momlife happens, and some days we need a super cute hat to cover up the mess underneath. There’s no shame in your mom game! So, treat yourself to a cute trucker hat, and while you are at it, grab one for the whole fam! These hats also make great gifts for other families that you know, (they come in matching family sets!) that bride and her girls that need matching hats, AND even some of your favorite sorority sisters! There truly is something for everyone, and we think that you should support your local mom business by hurrying over and grabbing some hats!
If you use SDMB10 at checkout, you will receive 10% off your order!
For your coffee loving mom friend:
San Diego Moms Blog has created some #sdcoffeemoms merchandise available for sale. We are working hard to bring you a shop- but in the mean time, you can send $5 for the coffee moms bags and/or $20 for the coffee moms tanks, along with your size and color preference (we have blue and white tanks available at this time) to this paypal address: jenna@sandiegomomsblog.com as a “friend”. We can either give it to you at the next San Diego Coffee Moms meet up or arrange shipping! The tanks have a thick racerback design and are scalloped at the bottom for extra length. They fit true to size/a tad bigger. Our #sdmom hats are made by Tiny Trucker. Visit their site and tell them we sent you so they can make you a custom hat! You can get 10% off if you mention the code SDMB10.
Toys for the kiddos:
We have consulted the Target, Toys R Us, and Amazon’s “hot toy lists” for 2017 and we have come up with a few must have toys for your kiddos!
For boys and girls:
For another year, it seems like those cute (and expensive) hatchimals have made a comeback! This time they made two different sizes, so you can purchase it in large or small. Also, these cute little WowWee Fingerlings Interactive Baby Monkey Toy’s seem to be really popular with both the girls and boys. They look super adorable!
For boys:
It always seems that anything legos or start wars is a big hit with boys. The lego Ninjago set looks like hours of fun! And debuting at the San Diego Comic Con this year, was this awesome Luke Skywalker Landspeeder. Perfect for the Stars Wars fanatics in your life! And make sure you get them the appropriate costume to go with it!
For Girls:
For your little teeny princess, this Fisher-Price Little People Surprise & Sounds Home can not only be added to your already growing collection of Fisher Price Little People, but it looks like the perfect way for your little one to learn and have fun. The Project MC2 Smart Pixel Purse looks like a fun and interactive (and popular) item for older girls.
Educational Games:
We recently connected with a local business, The Home Learning Company, who makes these very affordable, and unique learning games. She is working on expanding her product line, but what she has now would be great for any homeschoolers, pre-schoolers, or any kids that like to play games and LEARN! My favorite has to be the shape matching game shown below. These awesome magnet tiles keep kids busy for a long time and they promote hands on learning, engineering, creativity and more!
