I Made a GiftHub Wishlist for My Kids—Here’s Why

Something I didn’t expect when becoming a mom was how much my family would want to spoil my kids. I’m talking new books, toys, and snacks every time we visit—sometimes we even leave with extra toys in hand.

It’s incredibly generous and thoughtful, and I know they just want to show love. But sometimes, I’d prefer they gift things I actually want my kids to have—like this Fisher Price musical play mat for my baby, or this Little Tikes Dream Machine for my toddler.

That’s why GiftHub has been perfect. I created a wishlist for my daughters that includes these kinds of items, and my parents can easily access it. It takes the guesswork out of gift-giving and keeps things aligned with what we’re trying to do at home.

Now, my girls get things they love, and I feel good about what’s coming into our home. Win-win.
