Holiday Gift Ideas: 19 ideas for kids (or the young at heart)
Nothing makes one’s heart grow three sizes like seeing a child light up over a well-chosen present.

Okay, we admit one or two of these options—like a onesie that reads “Straight outta Parkdale”—will probably appeal more to parents, but there’s still enough kid-friendly ideas to fill several stockings. Best of all: not a single battery required.
