It’s the most wonderful time of the year! It’s time to start planning your holiday gifts list. Kids have really big expectations on what they want to find under the tree on Christmas morning. It can be hard for parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and friends to find the perfect gifts for kids. Especially gifts that they will actually play with after a few weeks, and that mom and dad will like too! Here are our picks for the best gifts for kids in 2019.

Songs and pony sounds even play as your child rides. Josie comes with a grooming brush, cupcake, flowers, and saddlebag. Your child’s eyes will light up when they see Josie on Christmas morning.
