I can’t believe the holidays are here! So, presenting (drum roll please) the That’s IT Mommy Holiday IT list!! Christmas is right around the corner and many of you are probably making up your gift shopping lists. We thought we’d help focus your choices by putting together our favorites for you. The IT list is compiled of items that we’ve reviewed, items that are soon to be reviewed* and other items that we haven’t reviewed but we thought were cool enough to include in the IT list.
Good luck and happy shopping! And most of all, a wonderful holiday to you and yours.
Love,
Tee & the That’s IT Mommy Team

so many awesome gifts! The eraser ring is a fantastic idea for a friend who is constantly writing, and the hello kitty flash drive is something i’ll have to pick up. 🙂 thanks for such an awesome blog. I’d like to link you onto my new blog when i figure out how. 🙂
Thank you! The eraser ring does look fantastic. I couldn’t resist adding it to the list!
Wow…some of these toys are so cool…I kinda want them for MYSELF 🙂
I also love the custom artwork in silver from Surfing Silver under grandparents. And who wouldn’t want to make Darth Vader cookies? 🙂
I love that cookie cutter set! – Tee
I’m so glad I saw this before we finished our holiday shopping… the kids in the kitchen items are MUST HAVES for my daughters. And I think my baby needs that Blabla elephant. He doesn’t know it, but he does. 🙂

Great list – I’ve never heard of most of these items. Thank you for putting this together.
I have been thinking about that dish set from Green Toys for my daughter. Thanks for the great gift ideas! There are lots of unique gifts there.
What a great list! Thanks for all the ideas! I was at a loss. I am definitely buying one of those bilibo chairs!
This is a TERRIFIC “It List”! Seriously, more than half of that I either want or own and love. What a great job putting the greatest must-haves all together in one place!
