@PiningOverHome yes well my son has 2-3 pretty big gifts because I found some super deals on marketplace. However his stocking stuffers I bought aren't coming because of the canada post strike so I ordered a couple things from Amazon to make up the difference because they ship with FedEx to us. We are loving the usborne ones, he's only 3 so he's pretty proud to be able to read some words from the first 2 or 3 books.
