Christmas shopping update: I’m about 75% finished. How ’bout you? I know there are about a million gift guides going around the Internet these days, but I’m adding one more to the mix. Here are five things that are going in my kids’ stockings this year:
Mod Stix // Going in D’s stocking are these awesome Medieval Mod Stix. They are reusable decals that fit right on his Lego bricks and figures and I know he’s going to love them! I’m also thinking that they will be a fun addition to our history lessons.
Little People Aladdin and Jasmine // This summer, Mark introduced Sophia to Aladdin, his favorite Disney movie as a kid, and she loved it. We’re tucking the Little People version into her stocking and I know she’s going to add them right to her playhouse (and maybe Noah’s ark too, hah!).
Ninja Mad Libs // M is at a really fun age to shop for. I found these Ninja Mad Libs to put in his stocking and I know he’s going to have fun asking his brothers for noun/verb/adjective ideas and then reading their hilarious stories aloud. Bonus: this could also be considered sneaky grammar practice!
Mini Soccer Ball // TJ’s stocking is pretty bare (perks of being one and having lots of big siblings) but we did add a soft soccer ball. He’s always trying to be like the big kids and he’ll be adorable kicking this one around the house.
Lego Mixels Monster // J is very much into imaginative play and seems to always have his guys fighting some sort of “monster”. Even though this is from a Cartoon Network show (which we’ve never seen), I think he’ll enjoy building and then setting him up for battle.
