Every year my friends and I host a Favorite Things Party during the holidays, and it has truly become one of my favorite traditions—one I hope we keep going for decades. The rules are simple: everyone brings a wrapped gift at an agreed-upon value (this year was $50-75), and we draw numbers to determine the order. When it's your turn, you can either open a new gift or steal one that’s already been opened. Each gift can only be stolen twice before it’s “dead,” and whoever draws #1 gets the final steal once everyone has a gift, making it the best number to have.

It’s always such a fun way to discover new products our friend group is loving.

A baby's first holiday season is such a special one, especially for the parents.

Here are some of my favorite products that are perfect for stuffing that stocking!

Ages 1 and 2 are such a fun range to celebrate the holidays and buy gifts for, as their minds and skills are developing so quickly. Their motor skills, language, and curiosity about the world around them makes for so many great gifts to help foster these skills. The best part is that they won't outgrow these toys and activiites as fast as they outgrew the baby phase.

Toddlers between the age of 3-5 are truly the best to celebrate the holidays with as they start to really develop an understanding of tradition and have such a genuine excitement for all the magic of the season.
