There are only 85 days until Christmas. Who’s counting, you ask? Well, I am, for one. I LOVE the holidays and everything it brings along with it. The magic of Christmas in NYC is everything you see in movies. That warm pretzel on a cold winter day. The sights to see in the big city. Oh, and who can forget ice skating in Central Park. Yes, I sure am excited to share the magic of the season with my family, and the older my girls get, the more fun it is!
The season isn’t just about presents and toys, but when you are 5 and 2, this is what makes the season even more fun. Waiting up for the big guy in red to see if he fulfilled your holiday wish. All year long you hear “I want that!” or “I have to have that!” each time a toy commercial comes on the television. In reality, you can’t get your child EVERYTHING they want, but narrowing down a list of 3 top items on their list allows kids to prioritize their wish list and makes things for Santa a lot easier.
From my girls’ wish list, they may get 1 or all 3 items, depending on the price of the items. Walmart makes it easy to budget your holiday and find all the hottest names in toys and electronics. There are Holiday Toyland events across the US where you can find out about the latest trends in toys this holiday season. Big names, like VTech, Hasbro, Spinmaster, and more, will be featured during these events. To find a date and location near you, be sure to visit Holiday Toyland at Walmart.

I always start out at walmart and then I go to one other toy store. Walmarts the best for gifts.

I also love that Walmart is a one stop shop for gifts AND groceries!

I do a lot of my shopping at Walmart because they have layaway. I think it is good to limit gifts and not get your kids every single thing they want.
