Gift Guide || Kids + Baby
Kids aren’t always easy to shop for, believe me, the only thing on my oldest’s Christmas list is a mermaid tail.
This final gift guide for 2020 is aimed at curating fun, useful, and well-made gifts for the kiddos and new babies in your life, all from sustainable, ethical, and (when possible) affordable resources. Take advantage of the generous discount codes to make the price points even more accessible!
The gift that encourages free and creative play while keeping your space clean. It’s wipeable, beach/outdoor-proof, and perfect for just about any activity, indoors or outdoors. We use our Main Mat almost every day. Alternatively, the smaller size (the Small Fry) makes the perfect place mat, coloring/painting mat at a more affordable price point, especially for multiple kiddos.
These mats sell out quickly, but keep an eye on the website for the soonest restock (before Christmas!)
