Happy Thursday! Chelsea here.

Is it just me or is the holiday season straight-up flying by this year? I have to admit that I tend to be a procrastinator when it comes to buying gifts, which usually leaves me running around at the last minute. It's chaotic, but it works for me, especially because I like shopping locally anyway! Today we're not just talking about any old kind of shopping, we're talking about the best kind of shopping: toy shopping. If you're still on the hunt for that perfect holiday toy, these local toy shops are a must-visit.
