For Little Ones (Epic Records LN 24350 (monaural) / BN 26350 (stereo)) is the second record of the double album A Gift from a Flower to a Garden, the fifth album from Scottish singer-songwriter Donovan. Fearing low sales of a double album, Epic Records insisted the two records of the set also be released separately in the US. The first record of A Gift from a Flower to a Garden was released under the title Wear Your Love Like Heaven. Wear Your Love Like Heaven, For Little Ones and A Gift from a Flower to a Garden were all released in December of 1967 in the US.
