Just like Santa, your kids have probably made a holiday wish list—and checked it twice—and whether they’ve been naughty or nice this year, you want them to receive a special surprise.
Shopping locally is a great way to spend time in and support your community while also making memories with the kids. Ask your child to pick out a book for their sibling while you slip around the corner to find them a toy. Or better yet, bring an older sibling or family friend to keep little eyes occupied as you check off favorites from their list.
As we count down to Christmas, Chanukah, Kwanzaa and other winter holiday celebrations, here are some local stores to explore as you complete your holiday shopping:
