Looking back over the years, I can’t help but notice that there are some toys that our kids keep going back to, and others that hardly get a second glance. I’m sure this rings true in most households! Despite their great excitement when they receive the gifts, it quickly wears off over the next week or two. It’s made me want to be more intentional about what I pick out for them, and look for items that will be a go-to for them. I’ve put together a list of some toys that have been tried, tested, and true in our house, and some new gifts that I’ve thought up for this year.
MATCHING PJS
This was a gift that I often received for Christmas from my parents, and I love continuing the tradition. I remember always being excited to change into them and matching my siblings. I linked to some Plaid Hanna Andersson ones in my weekend blog post, and also came across these festive onesies!

WOOD BUILDING BLOCKS
Our kids got this set for Christmas last year, and to be honest, they were a little disappointed when they opened it. However, it’s been almost a year, and they still play with it almost every day. They are always so excited to take out all the pieces and build something new.

Reading books is a favourite past time in our house, and I love adding good quality ones to our collection! Here’s some of our kids favourites.
