For the Tiniest Trendsetters: A Holiday Gift Guide for Kids & Keiki

Aloha, ohana!

The grown-ups get all the pretty dresses and cool retro shirts, but what about the keiki? This year, let’s make sure the littlest members of the family steal the show with colors so bright they’ll outshine the Christmas tree.

Imagine the holiday card: everyone matching in the same vibrant print, kids twirling in ruffle dresses while grandma holds a handmade doll in the exact same fabric. Pure magic. And the best part? These aren’t stiff, itchy “special occasion” clothes — they’re buttery-soft rayon pieces that survive cookie-decorating disasters, playground adventures, and Auntie's bear hugs.

Whether you’re in snowy Seattle or sunny Honolulu, a pop of tropical color makes every holiday moment feel like Mele Kalikimaka.

The Sweetest Thing We’ve Ever Made: Happy Hapa Handmade Dolls

These aren’t just dolls — they’re tiny works of aloha.

Every single one is handmade in Hawai’i using leftover scraps from our signature rayon prints, so your keiki’s new best friend is wearing the exact same fabric as her favorite dress. Jointed necks, sweet embroidered faces, and the softest little bonnets you’ve ever seen.

 

 

(Yes, we cried a little too. They’re that cute.)

Mix & Match Magic: Ohana Coordination Made Easy

Want the holiday card that gets 200+ likes? Go matchy-matchy.

Our Family Matching Collection lets everyone wear the same print without looking like you tried too hard (because you didn’t — we did the work for you).

Pro tips from real Jams moms:

     Pair her Hattie Dress with Mom’s Midi Dress and Dad’s Retro Shirt in the same print → instant “best family ever” status.

     Let her wear the Kids Hawaiian Shirt unbuttoned over a swimsuit on Christmas morning in Hawai’i (or over leggings if you’re in the mainland snow).

     Add matching scrunchies or headwraps for sisters/cousins — chaos coordinated.
