My first son was born the day before Thanksgiving, so his birthday always falls just in time for some of the best shopping deals of the year! I've made a habit of putting together a helpful list of ideas for you of things he loves or that we plan on giving him this year in hopes it may help you with your own Black Friday shopping or even birthday shopping for the little guy in your life. These ideas are fun for Christmas, birthdays, or just because! We try to stick with hands on or interactive toys in our house. Almost everything on this list promotes using the imagination or working on a developmental skill. Enjoy! :)
