I am a firm believer in involving the kids in the gift-giving process from a young age so they can discover the true joy of giving. Over the years my children have shopped at several different Kids Only Christmas Shopping experiences and it is always a delight for both of us on Christmas morning as they excitedly give their gifts and I discover what treasures they have carefully picked out for me!
Make plans to set your kids loose at one of these great local Kids Only Shopping pop-ups and have a fun surprise for everyone to look forward to on Christmas morning.
