K.I.D. Collective

Where do I begin? It seems the majority of my friends have toddlers or at least a bun in the oven. What this means to me is, I have a few baby and kid gifts to find. There’s so much stuff out there, shopping can be a bit overwhelming. At least for me. I don’t even pretend to know what kids need. And I really hate just buying something that’s not going to get used.

You’re probably wondering why I’m putting together a gift guide for the kiddos. You can relax because I asked a few trusted sources for kid tested, mom approved gift ideas and here’s what they came up with. I couldn’t have pulled this gift guide together without the help of some wonderful gals.

[From left to right and top to bottom]

SIMPLY LOVELY : City Rubber Stamps : $30. My own kiddos are rubber stamp crazy… these keep even the most discerning kiddo occupied for hours.

WIDE OPEN SPACES : Vulli Sophie the Giraffe Teether : $18.49. You just can’t know what all the fuss is about til you give one to a baby.  Easily both of my children’s favorite baby toy, and I hear more of the same from countless parents. Adorable, nontoxic, and quintessentially French, it’s a great go-to gift for any new baby.

SIMPLY LOVELY : Organic Eco Dough : $25. So you don’t freak out when your kiddo (inevitably) puts it in their mouth

K.I.D COLLECTIVE : Eight Hour Day – Stork in Blue Print : $15. An 8 1/2 x 11 limited edition print that’s in a run of 40. In pink and blue. Maybe this will delay the where did I come from questions just a little bit longer. Probably not.

PAIGE NYKOLE : Teething Blanket : $14.99. Knots, tags, even little animal ears, are perfect for tugging, teething, & touching.

PAPER N STITCH : Scallop Coin Purse : $10. Handmade purse for all her trinkets and treasures. Perfect for mom or daughter.

K.I.D COLLECTIVE : Paxton Gate Teether Whaler : $17. A non plastic alternative to a teething toy. Plus it could look pretty great sitting on a book shelf once the baby his teeth.
