Whether You Call Him Baby Yoda or Grogu, Here Are 19 Fabulous Gifts for Every Fan of ‘The Child’
We don't think the last 12 months have gifted us with a new character more beloved than The Mandalorian's tiny green ward.
Though he's officially been known as The Child for all this time, most fans have preferred to call him Baby Yoda due to his being of the same species as that iconic character—and only last week did we learn The Child's real name: Grogu.
Will the name stick with fans? We have no idea, but we don't think that'll make him any less popular when it comes to holiday wish lists this year. Since the 2019 gifting season completely lacked official Baby Yoda merch (they would have been a massive spoiler!) he's the coveted character in 2020, and here are all the best Grogu goodies you should snatch up before they're all gone.
Operation: The Mandalorian Edition Board Game: $11.24
Operation is a totally classic (and only somewhat stress-inducing) board game, and this Baby Yoda-themed version of the game makes it about a hundred times cuter. Instead of carefully removing foreign objects from a man's body, this time you're reclaiming objects that Grogu has mischievously taken, from frogs to cups of bone broth and more. It requires the same surgical precision as the traditional game, but we think this one will be much more fun.

Williams Sonoma Nevarro Nummies Macarons: $49.95
If you were curious about those vibrant teal macarons Grogu was snacking on in The Mandalorian earlier this year, wonder no further, because Williams Sonoma is selling official versions of them. However, if you're put off by the high price tag (and the fact that the color is totally inaccurate to what was in the show), may we suggest ma-ka-rohn's Toasted Marshmallow macs instead? They're much closer to the actual color, and at $2.19 each (and with frequent sales), you can get almost double for the same price—and throw in other fun flavors to your heart's content.

The Child Ugly Sweater: $34.99
Yes, the word "ugly" is a huge misnomer for this preposterously cute Christmas Sweater from Numskull Designs. It's 100% knitted (not printed) with high-quality yarn, and displays The Child in his carrier amid falling snowflakes, with a cute Mando helmet pattern across the bottom for good measure. This one is a must for all of your socially distanced holiday parties.

Just because back-to-school season is over doesn't mean it's not the perfect time to up your school supply game. This cute little stationery kit includes an adorable pouch, as well as a drawing pad, markers, colored pencils, regular pencils, a glue stick, eraser, pencil sharpener, pen, stencil ruler and mini scissors. This set is sure to help anyone get their homework done in style.
