A baby’s first Christmas is such a big deal with families, and we totally get it. We’re sentimental like that too. So we love looking for cool gifts for baby’s first Christmas that can become treasured keepsakes, at any price. Our tip: save the big splurges and ride-on toys for when your child is a little older. Right now, the best gift is your time together. And all those awesome photo opps of the kid in the Santa hat.
