The leaves are falling, Black Friday promotions are running, and Target has decked the store in holiday cheer.

Thanksgiving is not here yet, but many of us are thinking ahead preparing for Christmas and Hanukkah.

If you need a little inspiration, I’m excited to share my gift guides for the holidays. You may notice a few items from previous Mother’s and Father’s guides that I would still suggest gifting.

Tis the season to hug your loved ones tight and gift them something special to close out the year on a high note. In my guides, I’ve included a practical mix of gifts for everyone on your list.

|| FOR THE KIDS ||

Toys your child will enjoy playing with – yes, even the wooden ones.

Although plastic toys have made their way into our home, I’ll admit sometimes it’s hard to resist those bright flashing lights, but most of the time we are mindful, purchasing toys for Wesleigh that are non-toxic and focus on the Montessori method. We introduce toys that are composed of natural materials that enhance learning and discovery. Wooden toys are safer, sustainable and can be enjoyed for years to come.

Here are our favorite picks that develop fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, encourage creativity and develop problem solving skills. They also are aesthetically pleasing since let’s face it, toddler toys inevitably wind up all over the house.

|| GIFTS FOR HER ||

The homebody, the homemaker, the accessories fan, the beauty junkie and the one who lives in athleisure wear.

|| GIFTS FOR HIM ||

For the guy who never shops for himself, gift him the things he really needs. Replace those 10 year old jeans with a fresh pair, new weather proof sneakers and a phone charging station so his cell is never out of juice.
