Hanukah starts tomorrow night and I am still getting all my presents in order. If you are a last minute shopper like me, perhaps this somewhat belated holiday gift guide will still be of service to you. Luckily, we’ve got eight nights of Hanukah ahead of us, so as long as I have the first few nights covered (I do!), I’ve still got time to buy stuff for the last few days. Plus, since Santa visits my house now, I’ve got to think about his gifts too.

FYI, Mazzy told me that she’s going to ask Santa for virtual reality glasses since she knows they are expensive and she doesn’t want me to have to buy them. Good plan, Mazzy. Harlow told me that she wants to ask Santa for a small Barbie house, since she knows there is no room for a big house in our apartment. Ever listened to your kids and heard your own words parroted back to you? With built-in excuses so you couldn’t argue with them? They should both grow up to be lawyers is all I’m saying.

Since Mazzy and Harlow’s birthdays were both within the month, I have the added benefit of seeing what they got as birthday gifts before making my purchases. For instance, Harlow told me she wanted a diary, but apparently, she also made the same request to everyone she knows, because she got THREE DIARIES for her birthday. I’ll be crossing that off my list.

There are over 140 gift ideas in the guide below. They are for everyone from girls who want to rule the world to moms who think their dogs are the same as their children.

Hopefully, there will be at least one idea where you are like— OH! That’s what I should get for such-and-such! And then all this hard work will be worth it.
