It’s hard to believe the holiday season is kicking off already. It feels like just yesterday the kids were headed back to school and now Halloween has passed and we’re making plans for holiday travel and preparing for all the festivities. While we know some people do their holiday shopping months in advance, we’re gonna be honest, it’s never really on our radars until after Halloween. But now, reality is setting in, and it’s time to start thinking about holiday gifting. With that in mind, we’re sharing some gift ideas we’ve been holding onto that will make perfect holiday gifts.

And, we’ve got all the bases covered. From your kiddo and hubby to your mom and office mate. Of course, you might just treat yourself to some of these so you can feel extra special at your next holiday party. Some are a bit of a splurge and others will make ideal stocking stuffers, but all are tried and tested and Mom.com editor approved.

And for those evening hours when everyone is finally in bed, we’re stocking up on things that will help us embrace the season from the comfort of our own homes.

It’s September and the little ones — from tots to teens — are officially back to school (or will be in a few short days), temperatures are already cooling and to be honest the vibe in our homes and neighborhoods is already changing. It feels like, well … people are actually ready for fall. It was an admittedly hot and hectic summer for many, and we are totally looking forward to all the cozy things.

And while our day-to-day schedules might be a little busier this time of year, we’re finding ways to sneak in some self-care and find ways to make our lives just a little bit easier. So with this month’s Editor’s Picks, we’re bringing you some favorites that will help you settle into the season, meeting every challenge, and maybe even finding time to glamorize the little things.

Now kids are back from summer camp, the sun is starting to set a little earlier, and back-to-school season is upon us.

Whether your kids start school in August or September (or already started in July!), it’s essential to be prepared for the academic year. Of course, that doesn’t just mean buying folders and glue sticks. There are a lot of other essentials we have to buy as we head into the fall — that’s where our Editor’s Picks come in!

If you’re looking for back-to-school must-haves, we’ve got you covered, but here are some great extras for moms, dads, toddlers, and babies.

Each month, we highlight some of our favorite products, so this month we wanted to show you some of our top mom products.
