My 9 year old was no problem, but my 12 year old is a different story. I had LOTS of trouble picking out stuff he would like.
Yes, as they get older they do get pickier. I find that my little ones are a bit easier to please.
Looks like a lot of great options for gifts for little ones! I am curious about those deco-lights and kinda want some for myself!
The deco lights are so cute, I will admit that I want one for myself too!
I didn’t think we would love The Jungle Book but it was sooooo good! I don’t think the previews did it justice. Def. get this if you have a Disney movie lover in your family as it truly was a great flick!
I felt a little weird about it too when I saw the previews because I grew up watching the animated version, but now I like them both.
These are such great options! It is my first Christmas as a mom and there are so many options out there for gifts, it can be overwhelming. Thanks for helping me pick!
It’s that time of the year! Very helpful post though! Cheers
Thank you. Hope you get everything on your list.
Some great gift ideas here! For adults and children 😉 I know I’d ask santa for a couple of those movies!
I agree, I have all of these movies and would watch most of them even without my kids.
What an amazing gift guide. I wish my girls were still little as I would so be using your guide for ideas.
Thank you. I am working on adding items for older kids too, but most of them seem to like video games or tech gear.
These are great for kids, gift giving can be so overwhelming at times! Thanks so much for helping us!
I am thinking of getting my kids the Secret Life of Pets movie but all of these look great too.
That is a great movie too, maybe you could get a few for upcoming family movie nights!
I love the sound of the little deco lights and who doesn’t love a good movie. Great list.
The lights are great because they will actually get used for a long time!
What great ideas! I love gift guides, because I usually run across things I wouldn’t have thought of myself.
you have so many good ideas on here! I usually stick to movies…
I love movies because the whole family can enjoy them.
These are great choices! A lot of them sound like they were chosen by my little brother and sister haha
Thank you. It is always good to see what the kids really want so you make sure to get them something they will like.
The amazing range of options that I’m sure kids would love to have them as Christmas gifts. The movies are something I personally would love to watch.
I don’t have any kids I’m shopping for this season but I would love to get Queen of Katwe for myself lol. Thanks for sharing!
Those 3D Deco Lights look cool… my toddler would like the minions! He just made a minion tree ornament and loves it 😀
Sometimes I don’t know where to start when it comes to my niece and nephew and I get so overwhelmed. This is so helpful for me since I’m doing last minute shopping today. Thanks for sharing these great ideas 🙂
We already finished our christmas shopping for this year (hallelujah) but these are great ideas in general. My husband and I do not have any children but it’s great for nieces and nephews!
I love the new American Girl dolls! I was obsessed with mine as a Child, I had Josephina 🙂
These are some wonderful picks for kids! I can definitely use this and find gifts for my little cousins and little sister!
Great picks for sure!!! My youngest daughter (8) is all about Elena this year. She even picked her as her ornament of the year.
My niece is a huge fan of Elena, so I bought her the dress and shoes. She already has the figures and I’m sending her the DVD I recently reviewed. I thought about the scepter, but was worried she would use it to hit her brother.
Elena is awesome. We love her in our house! We also really like Lion Guard and now are big on Trolls.
I love the message behind the Welly Wishers. My daughter is getting one. And I got some Elena stuff for my niece who loves her!
That is great. We love the Welly Wishers and the American Girl company in general. Elena is also a hit with our whole family.
