Your first holiday season as a parent will be one you’ll never forget. Not only will you be starting new traditions with your family, but seeing everything through the eyes of your new little one will bring back all the magical feelings you had during this time of year. However, some people may not even know what day of the week it is due to lack of sleep or stress.
That’s where this gift guide comes in handy. Send this to your friends and family as a hint to make your holiday season a little brighter. Of course, help and hot meals are also welcome!
I’ve kept this list short but sweet…enough list for now. For more gift-giving tips, check out our ultimate guide to the 50 best gifts to give this year.
Note: Be sure to keep an eye out for Black Friday discounts on all of the items below in the coming weeks.
Orkai slippers
You spend a lot of time on your feet while putting your little one to bed. Make sure your feet are properly supported with durable slippers. What’s great about these Orkai slippers is that they’re warm and cozy (though the slide-on style helps you avoid overheating) and the sole is made to be worn indoors or outdoors. So you can grab a quick coffee, take a walk around the block, or go outside to get your mail without worrying about finding another pair of shoes (or trying to wear them when your hands are full!).
