For this year's Brimful three gift guides, I've chosen just six gifts per list. Children really don't need a lot of gifts to make Christmas feel special. A few well thought out, open-ended toys, books, and games will provide hours of fun. I've found that fewer gifts also minimizes the post-Christmas blues!

Divided into three different age groups, here are my top holiday gift picks for Babies, Preschoolers, and School-Age children (ages 5-10). Many of these gifts are ones I've given to my own four children (ages 1, 3, 7, and 9). For more gift ideas, you can visit the three Christmas Gift Guides for Babies, Preschoolers, and School Age children on Pinterest. There are already over 35 gifts per board - and I'll be adding more throughout the holiday season. Enjoy.
