Sometimes I feel like I get just as excited about toys as my kids do. About a week ago I got an email from Hasbro asking if they could giveaway $275 worth of toys to you guys… um yeah! How could I say no?? I looked over the list and realized these are THE toys to get this Christmas. Some of them are actually sold out on major retailer sites. That makes it even more exciting.
Many of these are on my kids wish list, and some were on our angel tree gift lists too. I have no doubt many of you are also looking for these toys.

Today for Frugal Date Friday we are experiencing the arts in our community. Head to a community college, high school, or other local play or concert.
Tickets are usually free-$10 for these events. The price will vary depending on the production, so shop around for something in your price range. Just remember to have an open mind and be willing to try something new.
Don’t forget to also check coffee shops and restaurants for jazz nights, open mics, and more.
A local college near me is offering a run through of a professional play for free. There will not be any costumes, props, or set decorations, but it will be the full play for free. There are also Off Off Broadway products that are normally free and very entertaining.
These events usually aren’t kid friendly, but you can go here for ways to save on child care.

Sometimes I think girls are easier to shop for than boys, I may be biased though since I only have girls. For girls 5-6 years old, they want things that make them feel like big kids but that are easy enough for them to play with without being frustrated. You’ll also find that they are happy to play with anything, even pieces of trash become toys! Since we shouldn’t put trash under the tree for presents, here are some actual gifts you can give.
Top 10 Toys:
FurReal Friends Walking Ponies
Ages: 4+
FurReal Friends have been a coveted toy for a few years now, but as a parent they are crazy expensive. Take my advice and go small. Grab one of these ponies or one of the other snuggimals animals and you’ll save over 60% compared to the larger animals. The smaller ones are easier for kids to tote around and play with anyway.
Ages: 5+
Some girls are into dolls as much as others, but in general almost every girl wants one. Rather than spending way to much on certain brands, do a general search for “18 inch doll” online and you’ll find lots of great substitutes. I’d rather pay $30 for a doll than hundreds!
Age: 5+
Lego launched a line a few years ago just for girls. While they took heat for the idea, they were right. Girls love it! There is an entire community to collect and build. Your girls will enjoy role playing once they build and if they are like my girls they will leave them together forever, set up as a little town.
Age: 3+
While in essence you are giving them a box to play with… this one is a bit fancier than your average box. They get to color and enjoy doors and windows without you having to cut out all those parts. My girls were given one of these a few years ago and played with it daily until I finally put it away. It was a play area and reading nook.
Age: 5+
Remember these? Old favorites are still favorites to this age group. They don’t recognize it as ancient, just fun. Let them work on being creative and entertained and you just work on sweeping up all the lost beads.
Age: 4+
While we are getting nostalgic, don’t forget this awesome craft. Are you noticing a trend? Old crafts are cheap!! Since this age group isn’t all about the trends, save your money and just get them fun things that don’t cost a fortune. I bet you end up making a few shrinky dinks too…
Age: 4+
This is an award winning toy that lets kids build anything they can think of. We were given a set when my older girls were 5 and it’s still a favorite toy years later. All the pieces fit into a small box for storage. This is another toy that parents will enjoy just as much as the kids!
Melissa & Doug USA Floor Puzzle
Age: 5+
This takes puzzles to a whole new level. A 5 year old may need help putting this together, but with practice they become experts at puzzles and at their states! I love when play and school can collide without my girls even realizing it.
LeapFrog LeapReader Reading and Writing System
Ages: 4-8
This is a fun way to help your child learn to read and write with confidence by teaching reading comprehension, vocabulary and listening skills in a fun and interactive way!
Age: 5+
I know this was in the Boys age 5-6 list too. It really is a great gift for this age. Don’t forget to get them a helmet too!
What is your favorite gift for this age?
If you shop at Target, be on the look out for a great coupon coming in the Target Ad 11/17! The Ad will have a coupon for $10 off a Food or Beverage purchase of $50.
If you don’t have a copy of the ad, you will be able to text FOOD to 827438 to get the coupon starting 11/17. It is not active yet though.
The best thing about this coupon is that the $50 is retail value. This means you can use additional store and manufacturer coupons on the items you purchase, but be sure to hand over the $10 off $50 first.
Next week, Target will have great deals on turkey and other Thanksgiving foods. I’ll post the full Ad tomorrow, but you can start using the Unadvertised Deals list to get ready to shop (many of the deals will continue next week).
The coupon excludes alcohol, baby food, nutrition shakes and bars, pet food, target cafe, and Starbucks cafe purchases.
The coupon expires 11/23.
