Every year it seems Christmas sneaks up on me.
I scramble a few days before Santa comes in hopes to “help the big man” locate those special gift my kiddos have asked for before Rudolph hooves hit my roof.
Most the time I am not very successful, but this year I’m prepared…at least as much as a mama can be. A few months ago I attended the Walmart Chosen By You Expo, a three-day expo to check out the holiday hot list 2015 and best of all, give feedback on what we thought was cool – even including the kids! From TVs, laptops, video games, toys, apparel, and grocery – they had it (of course they do, it was Walmart!) While there were hundreds of ideas for every person on your list from techie, gamer, outdoorsperson, crafty or entertainer, I honed in on the two giftees that will expect the most from me this holiday – my kids.
And all I can say was WHOA mama. (If you know that reference you get two points!)
While there were lots of blasts from the pasts that I grew up with, there was such serious toy action happening that I even put a few on my Santa list. I mean a chocolate pen? That’s the kind of “office supplies” I want to use! And forget my oven…I want a Girl Scout Cookie Oven. Yes, you read that right. You can get your Thin Mint fix after you finish your last box with this easy bake oven. It’s family fun for everyone with learning how to read and follow instructions, cook your first treat, and of course, enjoy the taste of the caramel-coconut goodness when you get to enjoy the “cookies” of your labor.
Now that I’ve got your mouth watering, get out your pen, your list, your wallet and let’s get ready to shop!
And with Walmart’s new Shipping Pass pilot program, for just $50 a year you can get FREE SHIPPING in three or less days FOR A YEAR! So get to clickin’ and soon you’ll be done with your shopping for them, so you can do a little shopping for you while you’re at it!
And just in case you need a few suggestions for what else you need for your list, just check these other items I spotted at the Walmart Chosen by You event! (Just in case you were looking for a gift for me, any of these will work!)
Best of luck for your holidays shopping – make it easy and get everything you need at Walmart.
I love that girls scout oven! It’ s so cute I would love to get that for my daughter!

You have some great suggestions here. I want to get my kids Pie in the Face!
Thanks for sharing these ideas. I’ve resolved to not wait until the last minute to do my shopping this Christmas.
Great ideas for christmas! There are a few on here that I know my kids would love! The Pie in the Face game looks hilarious! OHHH the possibilities!
SO many cool toys! I’ve been wanting to play that Pie Face game ever since I saw that viral video!
Pie face looks fun and reminds me of a game we loved last year where a balloon would randomly pop! These are all great holiday picks, my niece would love to get any of them!
Lots of great stuff this holiday season! I have to admit that I’m loving that Rebel Camera for myself!
The holidays creeped up on me, thanks for some ideas. I have to start thinking about the season … of giving 😉
Wow, so many awesome things! My daughter would love the Canon camera. She’s into photography and a gift like that would put a huge smile on her face.
What an amazing expo to get to attend! I had not seen some of these new toys before looks like great products on the holiday toy list this year.
My kids are really into collecting Shopkins all of a sudden. I think they are cute and remind me of Squinkies when those little things were huge.
I’ve seen an easy bake oven before but never the Girl Scout’s oven. That is adorable! I can think of a few little girls to get that for.
I’ve got to get my kids the pie in the face game. Looks so fun! Great list.
What a great list! I especially love the Coke cooler! Thanks for the ideas!
Wow! I didn’t realize Walmart was offering this new Shipping Pass pilot program. I buy online from them all the time. This would be a great way to save money and still get my items within a few days.
Didn’t know Walmart had this new shipping option. Have to look into it since our Prime membership is about to expire!
That Girl Scouts cookie maker is super neat and I kinda want one! I know my kids want the Shopkins and possibly the oven.
The pie face game looks so fun. I’m sure my son and I would have a great time playing it.
Lots of great ideas and variety. Something for everyone!
I need to look into the Walmart Shipping Pass! Especially before I get to far into my shopping or buying myself that flying Millennium Falcon!
These are awesome suggestions. The twins will flip out when they see the barbie Doll House and the Quessn Elsa set.
This is perfect gift to this coming Chirstmas season. My son will definitely loved the Hot Wheels Garage, ‘coz he is loves playing Car toys. Awesome and cool gifts
So many cool toys for the holidays! My kids are just getting one big gift each and a few small items. Henry wants a Dareway!
