Hi, I’m Holly, I am a content creator that loves sharing all things motherhood residing in Alberta Canada. I am a very simplistic boho-loving mama that enjoys the outdoors. I love many different aspects when it comes to social marketing & using my platform. I enjoy creating high-quality content while showcasing products we genuinely love and are passionate about. That’s why I love curating these guides for you as they are all items we use or have used and LOVE.
It’s almost that time of the year again, the festive season is upon us! And I’m often asked, ” what is your favorite product for ____ or what do you recommend for ___ “. While I don’t always have the answers to those questions, and the majority of the items we use or love are by trial and error, I have learned a lot throughout the years of being a mum. I love sharing & recommending products. This is my second year putting together a Stocking Gift Guide for Littles; they are so much fun to piece together & share in hopes they help you along your Christmas shopping journey for the year. I hope you enjoy my Stocking Gift Guide for Littles.
Baby’s First Christmas
Baby’s First Christmas is such an exciting time! But trying to think of gifts can sometimes be difficult. Our first stocking gift guide is designed for the babies in our life. Here is a list of some great gifts to create a stocking for babe. [ Most items are gender-neutral so can be great for both girls and boys ] & Don’t forget to keep scrolling and check out our // Toddler Stocking Gift Guide // as well.
Silicone Stacking Stars – @threebeesbaby.ca
Three Bee’s Baby is a Canadian-owned boutique with various brands, clothing, dinnerware, and toys. Carrying sizes from 3M all the way up to 5T with such beautiful color tones in all of their items. I thought the silicone star stacker was a great toy to include with the silicone allowing it to be soft. It could not only make a great first toy but also could be soft enough to make for a great teething toy.

Le Méchant Loup is another great Canadian-owned boutique in Quebec, anything from clothing, accessories, sleep, decor, eat, play you will be sure to find something suitable for mama, babe, and toddler. Your one-stop shop for everything you need for those littles in your life.
