Gifts for Toddlers, Babies & New Mamas

Your new mama and parent friends are going to love you for this amazing gift guide. Whenever I poll the AK audience about gift guides, one of the most requested ones is for new parents, babies and kids! I love putting this one together because I get to include tons of things that Sidney and Viggo are loving lately.

You’ll find plenty of toys and games for babies and toddlers, plus activities for the whole family that are great for spending time together. I didn’t forget about the mamas either! Give her the gift of self care with some cozy loungewear, soothing skincare, and more.
