Eek, the countdown to Christmas is officially on!

But if the thought of trawling through the aisles of Target, Kmart, or David Jones to find some valuable stocking stuffers makes you want to run and hide to a planet far, far away (to escape the impending crowds and mayhem) then perhaps it’s time to consider our popular b.box stocking stuffers!

Ho, ho, ho! Instead of gifting our kids with excess: including games, gadgets, toys, dolls, clothes, and sports equipment they already have enough of - we’ve got an alternative. This Christmas, choose an approach to holiday gift giving that will put a smile on our child’s dials  with fun and functional b.box gift ideas, for little and big kids.

At this stage, a bub may be crawling, grasping for toys, eating some pureed foods and (hopefully!) sleeping through the night. And … they might also be ready to drink more fluids like water and wish to hold their own drink bottle. They may also wish to feed themselves independently. To support baby’s developments at this very exciting and enjoyable stage, we have these fun and functional gifting ideas.
