What Moms REALLY Want for Christmas: We Have the Inside Scoop! Holidays Gift Guides
Have you ever wondered what moms really want for Christmas? Well, we found out! We asked moms on social media what they wanted for Christmas, and we gave them one condition: they were not allowed to say "peace on earth" or "happy and healthy kids" or anything of the like. We wanted materialistic gifts, dream gifts – something for them. We received far more responses than could possibly fit in a 30Seconds tip, but this is a good representation. From practical gifts (washer/dryer) to dream gifts (think Chip and Joanna Gaines!) to dreams of alone time, here’s what moms really want for Christmas. Which gift(s) do you want the most?

I built the crib for my 2nd baby and the house bed for them when they were older (that was me reliving myself through them), we changed the walls when they went their separate ways to make it look like a treehouse. The board with the weird cut, well I shouldn’t have been buttering bread let alone using the most dangerous machine in a woodshop. It kicked back and hit me in the mouth then flew 57 ft. All it did to my face was cut my lips, pushed a tooth back and jammed my jaw, but the rate of force my head went back bringing my shoulder forward tore my rotator cuff and a ligament and messed the bursa up so I had to have it reconstructed.
Still think I should write a tip? 🤣
