KIDS’ TOYS
HOLIDAY
GIFT GUIDE
BY DONNA DUARTE-LADD
Shopping for toys for little
kids can be a bit challenging,
because they’re no longer
babies, and not quite ready
for big kid toys. Each kid’s
personality and growth needs
to be taken into account.
Our five picks of little kid toys range
from snuggly stuffed toys to tech toys,
all offering fun play and growth for
growing kids.
Check out our picks for holiday toys
for little kids.
