It looks like most of them are under the imaginative play section. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/christmas-toy-catalogs#post-2619477 Sat, 10 Sep 2016 22:27:28 +0000 daniellemybelle 2619477@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@yoursilverlining: This sounds like a lot of work but a great idea :silly: </p> <p>@psw27: Me too!</p> <p>@Miss Ariel: Oh, this is cool! Too bad most of these toys are too big :/ </p> <p>@OldpuebloJenn: Good idea! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/christmas-toy-catalogs#post-2619432 Sat, 10 Sep 2016 19:47:23 +0000 psw27 2619432@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I loved looking through the catalogs as a kid! I'm hoping they keep that up in some form so my LO can do that someday! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/christmas-toy-catalogs#post-2619398 Sat, 10 Sep 2016 18:19:39 +0000 yoursilverlining 2619398@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You could always make your own - just print out a bunch of "preapproved" toys onto double sided paper and staple together or otherwise bind. Of course not the same, but littles won't know the difference! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/christmas-toy-catalogs#post-2619397 Sat, 10 Sep 2016 18:08:51 +0000 Miss Ariel 2619397@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always love the Hearthsong catalog. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/christmas-toy-catalogs#post-2619391 Sat, 10 Sep 2016 17:47:43 +0000 Golden 2619391@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@daniellemybelle: <a href="https://bargainhuntingmomma.wordpress.com/2013/08/27/order-you-free-sears-wish-book-mailed-to-your-home/" rel="nofollow">https://bargainhuntingmomma.wordpress.com/2013/08/27/order-you-free-sears-wish-book-mailed-to-your-home/</a></p> <p>Try this link. Looks like it comes out in October every year. Hmmmm....maybe only Canada? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/christmas-toy-catalogs#post-2619375 Sat, 10 Sep 2016 17:06:13 +0000 OldpuebloJenn 2619375@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@daniellemybelle: I took a solo trip to Target and took pictures of toys and we looked at pics and DD made her wish list from that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/christmas-toy-catalogs#post-2619362 Sat, 10 Sep 2016 16:26:45 +0000 daniellemybelle 2619362@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It looks like Fat Brain Toys has a holiday catalog but it hasn't come out yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/christmas-toy-catalogs#post-2619360 Sat, 10 Sep 2016 16:22:18 +0000 daniellemybelle 2619360@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Shannon: Oh, that's great! Thank you!</p> <p>@looch: I can't figure out how to get a Toys R Us catalog - like, THE Christmas one! I guess I could go ask at a store...</p> <p>@Golden: I can't find the Sears Wishbook - just vintage stuff online! That would be so fun. Why are catalogs so neat to me now that they are hard to find? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/christmas-toy-catalogs#post-2618915 Fri, 09 Sep 2016 15:56:55 +0000 shabang 2618915@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lakeshore Learning has one my daughter was looking through (and loving) recently. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/christmas-toy-catalogs#post-2618900 Fri, 09 Sep 2016 15:09:14 +0000 looch 2618900@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Last year, my son got his hands on the Toys R Us catalog. He circled a ton of stuff, I mean, even the baby dolls got circled. We talked a lot about him not getting everything and he managed to pick one thing and we got him that.</p> <p>We wrote a letter to Santa thanking him for the gift and sorry we forgot the cookies. This year, he's already written his list, with my help. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/christmas-toy-catalogs#post-2618891 Fri, 09 Sep 2016 14:58:55 +0000 Golden 2618891@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did the catalogue thing too! So much fun as a kid. Sears still has a Wishbook, and you can put yourself on mailing lists for things like local toy stores/bookstores. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/christmas-toy-catalogs#post-2618890 Fri, 09 Sep 2016 14:56:19 +0000 daniellemybelle 2618890@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For Christmas, I like the idea of LO writing a letter to Santa with requests, and I remember as a kid going through the Christmas toy catalogs with such enjoyment. Is that still a thing? Is there one you would recommend?</p> <p>Otherwise, LO doesn't watch TV with commercials because we don't have cable, and I avoid the toy section at Target, so she's really not very aware of the toy options that are out there! I probably should keep it that way but I'm already getting so excited for the holidays :) </p>
