Do you have too many people of all ages to buy for?
Then you need: Don’t Laugh Challenge joke books (links below)! I have the yearly challenge of buying Christmas presents for five kids between 9-17 years old within one family. I’m constantly looking for ways to be fair to each of them while keeping it fun for them and inexpensive for me. I got each of…

Are they a kid over the age of 4?
They need a: Cardboard box construction tool! Recycle old cardboard boxes while the kids have hours of fun! Also a great way to make a lemonade stand; they’ll pay back the cost of the tool in no time.

They need a: Build-your-own-fort kit! This gift idea came via my friend Wendy, who bought it for her nephew and it was a hit! Grab an old sheet to drape over it and get all the fun of forts without damage to your furniture and chaos in your living space. Take it outside for extra…

Are they a toddler?
They need: The Body Book! I bought this because all in one week my toddler slapped another preschool parent’s a** AND mislabeled my “boob” as my “stomach” (to be fair, there isn’t much delineation there these days LOL). Don’t wait until their kid (or yours) is slapping a**** and mislabeling body parts. Get it now!…

Do they have a kid and a car?
They need a: Magentic Sun Shade! Just like sleep sacks, file this under “things I never thought I’d need until I became a parent.” Keep the sun out of your kid’s eyes! Makes roadtrips 100% more enjoyable, promise.

Are they a kid?
They need: A f***-ton of AA Batteries! Listen, it’s an underrated addition to a gift! No parent wants to be stuck without batteries while their kids open their holiday or birthday presents.
