One store that I think a lot of us can associate with Christmas is Hallmark. Every year when I was little we got a new Hallmark ornament from an aunt. I thought they were so special that I still have all of them! For gift giving, whether it’s their greeting cards, Recordable Story Books or tree ornaments, they’re a go-to place for the Holidays.
This year they have a great giveaway pack of top gifts to give:
The Interactive Story Buddies read stories with your family by chiming in when key phrases are read in their corresponding book. This year not only do they interact with the book, but they come with an audio CD and online and mobile games that your Story Buddy interacts with as well. I have tucked this away for my 4 year old, I know she will love not only the animal, but that it reads with her!
Recordable Storybooks are an awesome gift for family members who are far away. Whether you’re a grandparent and give it to your kids to read to your grandchild, or an aunt or uncle giving it to your nieces and nephews. Record the story and every time your child pulls out the book, it will be like you’re reading it to them.
They sent us some fun interactive cards, too! These cards are a lot of fun to give and receive. They sing, count down to Christmas, and there’s some just with beautiful designs.
One of our favorite things Hallmark sent this year is Merry-Okee. It’s a microphone that has 6 pre-recorded songs on it and when you sing into the microphone it changes your voice to sound like an elf. My girls love to sing so this is perfect for them… and the silly elf sounds are an added bonus! I also love that this isn’t a toy that one person sits and plays quietly with, but instead a toy that gets every involved.

Have an active kiddo to shop for this holiday? It might be time to join the Y-Volution. That’s the company that makes the relatively new (to the US) and very different Y Fliker Scooter. This scooter looks like it would make a great present to any child this holiday season.
The Y Fliker Scooter has a unique three wheeled design that eliminates the need for kicking the ground. Now the kids swing their weight from side to side to move forward. Having a three wheeled design also enables “carving and drifting” that you can check out in this commercial.
For comfort and good grip, the Y Fliker Scooter has “action grips” and a quick release hand brake. Worried about storage? Y-Volution developed a twist & stow folding system that allows your children to neatly put it away, which always happens.
There are three different sizes with each size corresponding to an age group. The sizes are for ages 5+, 7+, and 8+. To help you out with the ins and outs of how Y Fliker works, here’s a video from Y-Volution.
The Y Fliker is actually the most popular scooter in Europe, but is just now coming to the US. Only Toys “R” Us sells them and the three models cost between $79.99 and $119.99. You can find them online on Amazon too.
Win a Y Fliker:
