Christmas List for Toddlers 18+ months

The best gift guide for your toddler this Christmas! Christmas list for toddlers 18 months and up!

Some of the items in this post were gifted in exchange for gift guide placement. This post also contains affiliate links which means I may earn a small commission from your purchase.

It’s that time of a year again, Holiday gift guide season! I am so excited to share with you all our top picks for your Christmas list this year. First up is inspired by my little toddler himself, Christmas list for toddlers. Now these gifts are perfect for that in between 18 month – 3 year stage and can be for either a boy or girl. Most of these gift ideas are inspired by my little boy so keep that in mind too.

Christmas List Toddler Boys:

1. Manhattan Toy Tree Top Adventure. If you haven’t heard of Manhattan Toy yet, then you’re in for a real treat. Manhattan Toy has this incredible goal of bringing joy to a child’s every day play. No matter what it is a child is playing with, Manhattan Toy believes that a child is profoundly influenced by the toys that they play with. There is so much more potential to simply the toy a child is playing with. This belief of theirs is what drives every toy they design and create and that’s a pretty special quality you can’t replace. The Manhattan Toy Tree Top Adventure has been designed to capture your child’s imagination and curiosity with the colors and gadgets offered for hours and hours of play!

2. Shape Sorter. The Shape Sorter from Battat is another perfect choice for your toddler Christmas list. It’s the perfect learning friendly toy and your toddler can learn colors, shapes and concepts like cause-and-effect; improve hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills. This is a great all around developmental toy. 

3. Car Garage. The 3 Car Garage is another pick of ours from Battat that I know Jude is going to have so much fun with. He is all boy and this couldn’t be more perfect. The 3 Car Garage has the ability to teach your child shapes and colors, it’s perfect for little hands and both fun and interactive.

4. Big Red Barn. This Big Red Barn has to be one of my favorites on Jude’s Christmas list this year. I mean how completely adorable is this? Battat has the most incredible toys that are based off of toys we may have had as a child. Their selection is sure to take you down memory lane. All of the toys that Battat creates have an educational value built into it, whether it is didactic, nurturing, or collecting and creating worlds for children. The Big Red Barn is foldable and durable making it a perfect choice for your little one!

6. Skip Hop Toddler Backpack. We have one for all of our kids when they transition out of the diaper bag stage. We kept going back and forth on which one we want for Jude, but this raccoon is too cute to pass up!

 

 

7. LEGO Duplo Town Airport 

8. LEGO Duplo My Town Family House 

Jude has been the first of my babies to really take a liking to LEGO’s at this age, but I think it is mostly due to his older siblings. So I am definitely eyeing these to get him some of his very own this Christmas.

You deserve to exist, with the same grace and love You deserve to exist, with the same grace and love that you so freely give to your family. It’s not just about holding space for them; it’s about holding space for you, too.

You don’t have to shrink yourself to make room for others.

You deserve to take up space too.
Sometimes, the habits that helped us survive becom Sometimes, the habits that helped us survive become the hardest to unlearn. Those patterns once kept you safe, but now you’re learning they don’t need to anymore. 

Give yourself grace—you’re unlearning survival. Healing takes time, and with each layer you peel back, you’re discovering the person you’ve always been beneath the survival.

And if you’re anything like me, you’ll really learn to love her. ❤️
✨ NEW SEASON ✨ I’m not a big fan of change. ✨ NEW SEASON ✨

I’m not a big fan of change. My nervous system gets all panicky and tends to over research every possibility that could take place. It likes to tell me safety is in the details. 

But I know that’s not true.

This year has been a big year of growth for me in this department. Trauma told me control was my safety, but the truth was all I ever had was a false sense of control. 

This year has offered plenty of opportunities for me to say, “Okay God, you have my yes, wherever that leads.”

No over research. No over analyzing. No predicting every possibility. No trying to control the outcome.

Just a heart that says, “Yes.” 

Even when I don’t understand. Even when I’m nervous how it will turn out. Even when it feels like right now isn’t bad. Even when my heart’s confused. 

Even when….

God has been asking us both a lot lately, “Do I have your yes, no matter what that looks like?” Friday was the end of a season for Chad working at the Appliance Guys, and today starts a new season of a new company. It was NOT an easy decision, and it came with a lot of tears (mainly from me - are you surprised?). His boss, where he’s been for the last almost six years, has been an incredible support for our family as we walked through some of the hardest seasons of our family. They will always hold a special place in our heart.

But God said “it’s time” and my faith-filled husband said “Yes.” I have to admit, I don’t envy how hard this decision was for him. It affects us both, yes. But he had to walk it out. And I’m so grateful for His leadership and faith to Jesus to step into the next season when there are so many unknowns.

Sometimes, all God wants to know is does He have our “YES” no matter what that means. No matter what that changes. 

May I live my life in a way that has an open heart to hear from God and a willingness to say “YES” even when….

(PS he was so thrilled I made him take this photo. 😂 But I know this season will be one we forever ever want to remember, because God always shows His faithfulness).
I wonder if they would have chosen life for her. I wonder if they would have chosen life for her.

I wonder if they would have seen what was growing inside of her, and the fight that was about to come on the other side, if they would have said her life was worth saving.

I wonder if they would have discounted her before she had a chance. 

I wonder if they would have made a prediction about her quality of life and deemed her not worth the cost.

I wonder if they would have saw the life saving measures she would need and decided that it was worse to let her live.

I wonder if they would have saw everything that could go wrong, the bleak prognosis, and compared her to statistics. 

I wonder if they would have made a choice to encourage a decision that robbed us all of the miracle we see today.

Whether 48 hours or 4 years - her life has changed mine for the better. It’s heartbreaking to think someone may have once told me she wasn’t worth it.
