9 Heartwarming Holiday Gifts That Will Make You Wish You Were a Kid Again

"I can't remember which gift was my favorite as a kid, but I do remember the gold stud earrings my dad gave me with my birthstone (aquamarine) in them. I was too young to wear them much at the time — which was for the best as I was a rough-and-tumble kind of girl who would have lost them on the playground — but I still have them, and they were definitely a more meaningful gift than any of the toys that are now long gone and forgotten."
