A Child to Cherish this Valentine's Day!

I think sometimes I'm just way too sentimental for my own good. While most parents are out shopping for the coolest newest toy out there when I have free time I'm usually out looking for toys that I think will leave a lasting impression on Connor. Toys that stand the test of time and don't loose their thrill after the first week. Don't get me wrong I was just as worked up about Kota and Elmo Live at Christmas and you better bet I went to every store on earth looking for the hot toys. However, if I'm just out looking I'm always drawn to more vintage styled toys that will be as cool today as they are when I have my first grandchild. I just have to find a place to store all these things once we are done with them so I will have them when that first grandchild arrives.

A Child To Cherish offers beautiful gift ideas for every child on your list. From hand print kits to vintage looking keepsake suitcases your bound to find something that will thrill the kids and bring on a sense of nostalgia with the parents. Personally I'm in love with the Buttermilk Collection Crayon Aprons. A crayon apron has been on our wish list for quite some time! Connor is big on coloring, however most of the aprons I've seen are either a bit on the girlie side or feature incredibly loud prints that distract from the art at hand.. Connor's art! When I saw the crayon aprons from Child to Cherish's Buttermilk Collection I knew I had found just the perfect thing. Both the girls and boys aprons feature a very simple gingham applique on a creamy white background that's fairly neutral as the blue could go for a boy or girl easily and its really quite pretty. Connor can wear his apron to do finger painting, coloring, or even helping me cook. I can't wait for him to get just a tiny big bigger so we can make our first cupcakes together!

If your looking for something a bit softer and huggable one of the most cuddly plush animals we have had the pleasure of reviewing has come from A Child To Cherish's plush collection. Daisy the Bunny, a pink floppy bunny, is super super soft that you will want to sleep with her as close as possible. She is just the sort of thing that will be treasured as a best buddy for years to come and her pink color makes her a perfect gift for Valentines Day or Easter. Alternately there is also Bo the Bear for the boys or girls who are not into pink. Both Daisy and Bo are available in several sizes so you can get just the right companion.
