Page 7 2024 Home For The Holidays Lincoln Daily News Little Barn Boutique Little Barn Boutique is located at 1103 Fifth Street in Lincoln. Jessica Goodman opened earlier this year and is enjoying being a business owner for the fi rst time. She has a steady stream of customers in her store who are looking for bright and beautiful from home décor to clothing and accessories. Goodman says that she enjoys off ering items for a wide range of age groups and features many items for infants and toddlers as well as great gifts for teens and adults. Among her favorites at the store is the holiday themed sleep sacks for infants that come in Christmas themed prints or prints that can be worn any time of year. Another favorite is the learning octopus that she says is so much fun to play with because there are a wide variety of interactive touches in the soft plus toy. Children can practice Velcro fasteners for example, or practice their colors using the underside of the toy. Little Barn will be participating in the December 7th Retail Therapy event in Lincoln. She is also planning to put together a “wish list” for customers, so that they can make out their list, then send their family members to Little Barn to shop the list, assuring a happy Christmas for the giver and the receiver.
