Help spread cheer at the North Pole by adopting a sweet arctic fox through the National Wildlife Federation. The adoption kit comes with a plush animal, certificate of adoption, color poster, and power binoculars with a carrying case.

For something a bit more exotic, get your mini-explorer a real jungle book by purchasing one of the gorgeous picture books from Save the Rhino. A portion of the proceeds goes to protecting the remaining 300 Sumatran rhinos.

Baby animals are always cute, but baby snow leopards? Extra-adorable. Adopt a cub for just $50 from the Snow Leopard Trust and your little cub will receive a plush toy, a subscription to the Snow Leopard Tracks newsletter, and a personalized certificate.

Finally, there are dozens of choices at the World Wildlife Fund, where you can sponsor a range of critters, from an orca whale to an Atlantic puffin. Whether your child is into bears or butterflies, there’s a little snuggly something for everyone here.
