15 Great Gifts for Kids Who Love Art
I often have friends and family asking what you can gift kids instead of toys. Many of us are looking to downsize in the toy department and would rather gift our children with meaningful non-toy gifts like these that they will enjoy but won’t cause all of the clutter or extra “stuff.” As someone who loves to draw & write in general, I understand the need for artistically gifted children to get their hands on more and more art supplies!

So my oldest is now 5 years old and she has written a letter to Santa. She knows the mail takes a while to get to the North Pole and is upset that we might miss the mail lady on Monday if we don’t address the letter NOW and put it in the mailbox. :=) I thought surely we can't actually do this. But something inside of me told me to double check that Santa didn't have an actual mailing address. And guess what? He does! What is Santa Claus’ actual mailing address?

Creative “Playdough” Money Gift
I love it when someone shows me creative ways to give money as a present. Maybe it's because I used to love getting money at Christmas or my birthday?

The trend I see with other moms on social media are elaborate mini stages and cute handmade props that are pretty Keep Reading
