There are two kids in my life that mean the utmost to me - my nephews. For that reason, this gift guide always has a special importance to it as the gift ideas I put together can make or break it for their holiday season. Let me tell you, all a kid cares about ripping open on Christmas morning is something visual, mind-bending or where they can build it themselves..Clothes? HA! You'll end up filming your kid saying something similar to this, trust me. You want to give them something that will hold their interest for more than just a second, so pay attention to their wishlist they make to give to Santa.

Like finding a gift for the guys, you will want to make this gift unique. I find that when my nephews start liking something, they go all in and it is all they can talk about. So go with that! Both of my nephews enjoy Minecraft, so I am grabbing on and not letting go when it comes to my buying decisions for them. Whether the kids you are buying for are 18 months, 5 or 10, this guide will get you in the right mindset when it comes to focusing on what you are going to get them.

I have to admit, finding gifts for little kids is probably one of the most fun tasks I could ever be set upon to do. It's like literally being a kid in a candy shop! This guide is for the kids, the tots, the babes! Now that my nephews are getting older too, it's making finding gifts that much more special. They now have their own interests + things that they really, truly love, which then makes it really easy to go shopping when December rolls around. That innocence and excitement that they possess during this time of year is something to behold. I miss those days. I may have gone a little overboard with this guide, but it's mostly because there are so many ages to go through for the youngsters. My favorite has to be; the Worry Eating Plush Pals from Uncommon Goods that encourages kids to write down their worries and then "feed" them to the helpful monster (SO CUTE), and the app-enabled BB-8 from Best Buy! Remember, shop all the links below! Which item is your favorite?

Because you can't forget those little loves of your lives! I've compiled a list of some items that would be super unique and fun for them to open. I'm positive my two nephews would adore any of these, especially the heart crayons!

It's officially December, y'all! That means time to decorate, buy presents for people you love and eventually be with people you love. I truly hope you all have a lovely holiday season and that you can be with those special people in your lives.. even if it's just you and your pet. Anyways, today's gift guide is all about those tiny tots that can make even the smallest day a big adventure. Having two little nephews has me on the special hunt for finding something that will mean a lot to both of them, but also helps them either learn or use their creative skills. Using Pinterest for this gift guide was a lot of help because it guided me to find unique gifts from online sites I'd never heard of before. I also had to include a couple ideas from GapKids, since it holds a special place in my retail heart. You can shop all of these items below!! Tomorrow's gift guide is all about the bestie, so let me know below some ideas for your BFF!

In the last edition of my Valentine's Gift Guide series, I am talking all about the cutest kids in our lives. While I don't have kids of my own I do have two adorable nephews that I love to spoil and give tons of love. I also work at GapKids and so I am constantly surrounded by adorable clothing and gift ideas. While the holiday is 4 days away from now, I hope these ideas can hopefully help you get something if you're stuck. Thanks for reading!

Paddington Bear™ Graphic Footed One-Piece ($30) : Had to include this super cute one-piece from GapKids that has an illustration of Paddington Bear on the front. I'm getting it for my youngest nephew and I know it's going to be adorable on him.

Bow Canvas Shoes ($33) : Tiny, tiny shoes for little girls are my WEAKNESS! Look at these! They even have a heart print inside of them.

Eyelet Flutter Sleeve Top ($27) : This top is part of Gap's new spring collection and it's full of pastels and prints. I love this one because of its simplicity and that your daughter or niece can wear it with anything.

City Graphic T ($15) : Gap + London = greatness. These city graphic t's come in several different cities and are great to wear when playing outside or with a friend.

Mustache Bib ($7) : I mean, really?!

Paddington Bear™ Family Graphic Bodysuit ($13) : This Gap bodysuit is also part of the Paddington Bear collection and so adorable. Your niece will be showing love for you on this Valentine's Day.

Two-Pack Socks ($11) :  These holiday themed socks would look great paired with a cute pair of shoes or a nice pair of pants.

'You Are So Loved' Print ($12) : Moving on to items other than clothing, this super cute print from Etsy would be perfect to hang in your child's bedroom. Make sure they know you love them and always will be.

Balloons Necklace ($28) : I've never heard of Sarah Jane Studios, but I am sure glad I have now. She makes customizable items for boys and girls that will be long lasting. This adorable necklace features an illustration of a bunny rabbit floating with balloons. It also comes in 3 different chain lengths! Go check out her site!

'You Are Very Sweet Indeed' Card ($6) : As with my other gift guides, I've had a special card for the holiday and so I had to include one in this one. This bright and colorful card comes from Sugar Paper, L.A. and I think it's really adorable to give to any kid on Valentine's Day.

Good Things For Boys by Seedling ($25) : Amazon comes up with some pretty neat stuff that you don't normally find anywhere else. When I was searching for different gifts, I found this really interesting item from a company in New Zealand. They're called Seedling and they put together these kits that host a variety of products. This  one is for boys and encourages them to think outside of the box and use their creativity. What an idea!

Love Monster by Rachel Bright ($14) : You can't go wrong with a good book for your tiny tot, and I love reading to my oldest nephew out loud. This themed book centers around a 'monster' that is trying to fit in with the citizens of 'Cutesville', I mean how awesome is it to get a book that shows diversity and has great illustrations?!

Build-A-Bear ($20-$40) : I recommend getting this gift for the older kids, since they will get more use out of it and will really enjoy creating their own bear. I enjoy this company because it's something really special for you and your child to experience together.

Conversation Heart Crayons ($8 for 5) : Another Etsy find, these heart crayons are eco-friendly and come in several different colors. You can get five of them for a really cheap price and they're supposed to last a long time. This shop is really great too, she hand-makes these recycled items and sells them for a decent price. Can't go wrong with that.

Always,
Mostly Lisa
