Excellent Holiday Gift Ideas for Children and Moms

Need a little help deciding what to get the kids this holiday season? Have a friend or family member expecting this season? We have a great list of gift ideas for children and expecting moms. Sure to put a smile on their face and yours.

#1. Trunki Ride-on luggage for kids.

Trunki is still all the rage this holiday season. A time-tested toy, created in England, Trunki is now available here in North America.  We love this product because it comes in a range of fun colours and animal shapes. You're bound to find a Trunki to suit any little boy or girl. Saddle bags with a little horn, add-on funny face stickers and the Trunki travel tote make great additions to the suitcase. The travel tote is especially useful for keeping small items like Lego, inside the suitcase. This is a great gift for kids ages 3 to 6.

#2 Zoobies and Baby Zoobies Pets

These adorable Zoobie Pets always please. Excellent for boys or girls, these stuffed animals have a surprise inside. Each animal contains a soft blanket that is removable for easy cleaning.  Great for car rides and airplane trips, Zoobies will become your little one's new best friend. Zoobies are also available in "baby" size.  The little Zoobies make wonderful presents for baby.

#3. Day and Night by Smart Games 

A great game to stimulate mental development and logic. Smart Games Day and Night Logic Game is a fun filled game of logic with colours, shapes and silhouettes that evolves in step with your child's growing and developing skills. At night, when it's dark, you can only see silhouettes, so the night side of each challenge only gives you the outline of what you have to create. 24 'day' and 24 'night' challenges. 



#4. Kid'sleep Clocks, Classic Clock and My first Alarm Clock.

Kid'Sleep has created every tired parent's dream, a clock that will actually help keep children in bed. Hard to believe but it's true. The kid'Sleep Classic Clock is the toddler version. A small digital clock on the side allows parents to set the wake and sleep lights for the appropriate times for children to stay in bed, or wake. In the morning, the toddler will learn to associate the lit rabbit corresponding to daytime. In the night-time, the sleeping rabbit will illuminate.  The clocks are available in pink or blue.  The older child version is the My first alarm clock. A more advanced version that also lights up, plays music and has a smaller illuminated day and night panel. The company has also created a travel version called the globetrotter, to promote proper sleeping, even away from home.





#5. Skip Hop Diaper bags

Skip Hop is famous for bringing New York chic all across the world.  Their line of diaper bags, baby accessories and toys are among the most creative and innovative on the market. Every new mom or mom to be, would love a Skip Hop Versa or Studio Tote diaper bag. These amazing bags don't even look like diaper bags, but are created to hold everything you need for baby inside. Why carry around a plain old boxy bad when you can look city chic with Skip Hop.




#6 Sushi Slicing Playset and Stir Fry Set by Melissa & Doug

We love, love, love the sushi slicing play set and stir fry play set by Melissa & Doug. Why not teach kids early about healthy nutrition.  These realistic pretend play food sets will bring out the little chef in any kid. Food pieces are held together by velcro and children can slice and dice using wooden knifes.

Lego Fiends

Long or short road trips in our family's automobile is an exercise in patience, creativity and contortionism (is that even a real word?.  Let me explain...My two boys aged 3 and 6 are OBSESSED with Lego and any toys with smaller than smaller parts.   However, this leads to dropped pieces, screams and wails... which then leads Mom into a complicated yoga sequence of spine twists, lunges and downward dogs in order to save the precious piece and complete their "creations".  Which leads me to the Star Kids Snack and Travel  Tray   from Bebegogo.  This tray works like a charm and keeps peace amongst my little builders.  I have two now and when they are not in use, I can just cram them under the seat or into a corner of the car.  They fold up really well, and did I mention they are an "award winning" toy? 
  
This is not my child you see here, but doesn't he look content?  I wonder what his mother and father are doing up front??? Probably sitting  and enjoying their car ride in peace and quiet.  Perhaps sipping a latte and looking at the fall colours outside. (this is the ideal scenario :)


Here are the specs:

  • Provides a sturdy surface for travel treats and toys, firm enough to eat on, play upon, read, etc
  • Tray buckles around the child, use with car seats, booster seats, strollers, on airplanes, in movie theaters, etc
  • Has 2" padded rim to keep toys and snacks on tray
  • Has two large mesh side pockets
  • Made of foam and nylon

Children's Headrests Provide Great Neck Support and Double as Cute Pals.

Long car rides with kids can be a real challenge. How often do we find our sleeping tots with their heads slumped over forward in their seats? It looks so uncomfortable and little ones wake up with sore necks. It can also be quite dangerous for an infant to be in such a position since it can restrict breathing. Many moms and dads  have to reach back while driving, trying to prop up little heads.

Travel Friends Headrests are a great solution to the falling head problem. These smart animal shaped headrests provide the much needed support for kids.  Parents love them because they help kids sleep and children love them because they are just like having a cute stuffed animal to cuddle with. These amazing headrests come in sizes from infants to 8+ years. They come in a wide selection of animal shapes from penguin, lion, cat, koalas and more.
