In September, I took Amalia to Williamsburg, VA, for a four-day, three-night, mommy-and-me trip. It was a time that we’ll never forget and kicked off a tradition of the two of us traveling together. She was the greatest little travel buddy, although she definitely kept me on my toes. :) We packed our days with family-friendly meals and activities.
As a child, the holidays were always a magical time for me, full of family, food, sparkle lights, Santa, and presents. But as I grew up, and mostly when my parents split up 15 years ago, the holidays became trickier, and new emotions crept in along with the excitement. I still love the holiday season but certain aspects of it can be overwhelming at times.
I asked my friends at Sustainable Westport to share their favorite sustainable gifts to give this holiday season and they understood the assignment! Check out their incredible comprehensive list of sustainable gifts you can buy online and scroll down if you're local to support some wonderful local businesses that have lots of sustainable gift options.
Thank you Johanna and Gately for this beautiful guide and for everything you're doing in our community!
Everyone likes buying gifts for kids because of the joy on their faces when they open something they love. This year's list is for smaller kids (3-7ish) and based on toys and games that Amalia has and loves and the things on her personal wish list. Plus a few other things that I've found on other lists and around the internet this holiday season.
