Non-Toy Gift Guide for Creative Kids
One of my favorite parts about the holidays is watching my kids open their presents. The anticipation, joy and gratitude that radiants from them on Christmas is unmatched!
It’s so fun to give them something they’ve never seen or knew they needed, and I love gifting them with things that they’ll use throughout the year. That’s why I created this artful gift guide for creative kids filled with plenty of non-toy gift ideas.
These items will get their creative juices flowing and keep them busy all year long as they create art, draw, write and doodle.
