{GIVEAWAY included} Christmas Gift Guide for Kids

GiveawayMegan12

It’s the most wonderful time of the year (yes, I just sang that in my head for all the Home Alone fans out there)! Here’s the first of my three Christmas-themed gift guides that I hope will make your shopping a little easier. Disclaimer, this is based on Pre-Primary to early Primary School going children – it’s what I know!

It’s 33 more days until Christmas! I have searched high and low to bring you the very best of the best, all of which would be welcomed with open arms by my own children. From the latest and the greatest, I’ve covered a variety of price points and have included both stocking fillers and bigger gifts that I hope you can appreciate. Scroll down to the bottom for the giveaway!
