Funky Junque
OMG! You have got to snag a Mommy and Me set of beanies from Funky Junque this holiday season! This fun parent, child, and toddler matching beanie set is the perfect matching trio to have this winter season.

Muslin swaddle blankets are a favorite for many because they’re super soft and breathable making them ideal for use year-round. LouLou Lollipop offers muslin swaddle blankets in a wide variety of prints and so many of them are unique and adorable! The hedgehog print shown above caught my eye as a former hedgehog owner, but they also have gummy bears, tacos, dinos, seashells, whales and SO many others. You’ll be able to find the perfect print for the little now in your life.

Headu
This toddler learning toy helps children learn about touch and manual skill while developing their bodily-kinesthetic intelligence. Kids must sort each of the 20 picture cards into one of four texture categories: soft, smooth, prickly, and rough. Some items will be familiar to them, while others may not be. During play, encourage your children to feel the different texture cards and use that touch sensation to evaluate what they see on the picture. You can also work on colors, language, names, and more. There is so much playability and educational value in this affordable gift!

Gladly Family
Another great Gladly Family option once your babe is this 2-pack long sleeve baby loungewear pajamas. These pajamas are made with the same great, ultra soft material as the 4-piece set above. Plus, I love how these sweet patterns were designed in house by the Gladly Family Creative Team! So unique and fun. Our sweet foster baby is 6 weeks old now and finally outgrowing the newborn size. So I snagged her a set of these one-pieces in 0-3 months and I LOVE how the cuffs are on the end of the sleeve so I can still protect her from self-scratching. The best part about this duo is how they are affordably priced as well! Currently, they are $24.99 for the SET of TWO! The size run on these is from 0-3 months through 9-12 months.

I shop for two babies and you have some awesome ideas here. I do love the beanies from Funky Junque. The print on the bibs in the Baby’s Christmas Box from My Little Love Heart is beautiful.
I love so many items, and we have a baby in the family this year…it’s been over 18 years since there has been one!
