Gift giving can add an element of joy or of stress, depending on your personality. Our gift guide is here to help.
I love when I find the perfect gift. But RARELY does that happen. If you are anything like me, we are here to help.
The FFTC team has collected some of our favorite ideas for our kids that create memories, encourage creativity, and won’t clutter up our homes.

Guitars made for kids (but not by kids). What makes them different and worth the price?
“Loog Guitars are really just 3-string guitars: they use regular guitar strings, they tune like a guitar, they play like a guitar, and they sound like a guitar.”
