Like many of you, our Christmas budget is super tight this year. In fact, it’s tighter than it’s ever been. So I want to make sure that when I spend money toys, they are high quality toys that will last a long time and keep my kids interest. That’s why I’m a huge fan of Melissa and Doug toys. We own several Melissa and Doug toys already and not only are they high quality, but my kids love them.
This holiday season, like every year, Melissa and Doug has put together a “Terrific Twenty Holiday Gifts for 2012” list of the best of the best toys for the 2012 holiday season.
There are some classic toys included in the list like a truck for the boys and a tea set for the girls — these are favorites of my kids!
In celebration of the gift list, Melissa & Doug is giving away one toy from the list per day on the Melissa & Doug Facebook page. Head over to enter to win!
Melissa & Doug is also sponsoring a giveaway just for Growing Up Gabel readers! We are giving away one Whittle World Wood School Bus set. Just enter in the Rafflecopter below!
Melissa and Doug are providing the prize for this giveaway and also sponsored this post.













I love Melissa & Doug. Everything we have ever purchased holds up so well, kids think they are awesome. Love having this brand around the house, so much better than plastic.

For Christmas, I want to feel like we really got the meaning of Christmas in the weeks leading up to it during Advent…I know that’s not what you really meant with what do you want, but I’m stumped as to a “must have” gift for myself. I have a long wishlist, but I can do without it, really. I just want my household to be filled with the true Christmas spirit.
