From hosting holiday gatherings and enjoying a game day around the Christmas tree to stocking stuffers and holiday decor, Target is the one-stop shop that has a little bit of everything for this year’s holiday shopping list. With aisles specifically dedicated to holiday shopping, Target makes it easy to zip into your local store, find everything on your list, and head back out while still whistling your favorite Christmas tune.
It’s our family’s tradition to enjoy at least one game day over the course of the Christmas holiday. The kids pull out all of their favorite board games, and we spend the day playing games and munching on all of our favorite snacks. So this week, accompanied by our three boys, I set out for Target to pick up a few items for our family’s game day.
We perused the items in the grocery aisles, trying to choose a few snacks from the wide assortment of items available at Target. Since our kiddos have very different opinions on what snacks are their favorites, it was convenient to have so many options to choose from. While most people might not consider Archer Farms butter toffee popcorn, Milano cookies, and Starburst candy canes to be a likely mix, it suited our children perfectly!
Once our cart was brimming with snacks (I couldn’t help throwing in some bagels and apples to help offset some of the sugar!), we set out for the aisle of games. Our boys immediately spotted the Logo Game, which they’ve been wanting to play for quite some time as well as Bop It Smash. Now, as a side note, I had not even heard of Bop It Smash until this week, and I wrote it off as being solely a kids’ game that I would be unlikely to play….however, that is not the case. I’m still in the midst of trying to beat my son’s high score!
Back at home, the boys showed all of our finds to their little sister, who was wide-eyed at all the surprises we had found. I’d love to say that all the snacks made it until our game day today, but I’m afraid that some of the popcorn is mysteriously missing, and I’m pretty sure I only counted three bottle of Starbucks Caramel Frappuccino!

I still need to pick up the presents. This year has been really though economically and it is not going to be possible for me to give presents to my 5 year old boy. I was not so worried since he’s autistic and he doesn’t understand what holidays are but sometimes I think about the illusion of giving him at least one gift to him as I received on Christmas when I was little. This gift card would save Christmas for us.
The main thing is a gift for my husband. I ordered something in the correct amount of time with them stating that it would arrive by Dec 24. Now the Date is is supposed to arrive is Dec 28. So now I need to find something that is useful for my husband.
I also need a few items in the kitchen for the baking that I still need to do.
