So, with that said – whether you are shopping for your kids, godchild, grandbabies, nieces, or nephews. This kids’ Christmas gift guide should help make shopping for those special kids in your life easier.
Christmas Gift Ideas For Kids
Here we go!
1. Mel Science Kit
These science kits from Mel will surely be a hit this Christmas if your kids enjoy science experiments such as explosions and volcanos.
My son Ray (he is 8) absolutely loves all things sciencey and is always excited when his monthly kit arrives.
You can absolutely do a monthly subscription plan or you can opt-in for a one-time purchase.
2. HelloBible Explorer
Strengthen that special kid in your life faith with a monthly subscription box from HelloBible. Each month the child will receive a box filled with Christian activities and crafts to strengthen their faith.
You can definitely opt in for a single box (if that’s what you are budgeting for) or you can choose a 3-month, 6-month, or 12-month plan.
3. Wooden Play Kitchen
This craftmanship kitchen will make an incredible Christmas gift for toddlers who are always looking for pots and pans to play with.
To this day I can vividly remember Sophia’s face when we got her a very similar kitchen like this one when she was a toddler.
She spent hours upon hours playing, cooking, doing dishes, and having fun. When it was passed down to Ray, he had just as much fun.
4. Bookroo
Remember, I said – I like using the idea of something to read, something they need, something they want, something to wear theme. Well, every Christmas I love getting both kids a subscription package from Bookroo.
This year I will be getting Sophia the middle grade chapter books. She is 11 and this is ideal for her.
For Ray, since he is 7, I will be optin’ him into the junior chapter boxes.
5. Tiny Land Playhouse Tent
This is a super cute and neat playhouse tent that will inspire pretend play or reading for hours. It is easy to assemble and gives a beautiful feel and aesthetic to your child’s room or playroom.
6. Pikler Triangle
My goal in life is to raise strong, resilient, and confident kids. This 5-in-1 climber from Tiny Land goes hand in hand with that mission. Allowing toddlers to build not only fine motor skills and coordination but also self-esteem.
This climber is going to transform your family room into a Montessori playground where your toddler/s will have tons of fun.
7. Kids Camera
Ray has been asking for one of these cameras for as long as I can recall. Guess, what this is something he wants so we will be getting him one of these kids’ cameras so he can tap into his photography skills.
8. Legos
Last year we had a Lego Christmas and this year both Sophia and Ray have been asking for Legos. They both got Legos for their birthdays as well and they always, always have so much fun tapping into their creative side.
I love Legos because it helps them build grit, patience, and confidence all while having fun.
Here are some of their favorite Lego sets:
9. Dance Mats For Kids
As Canadians, we spend a large amount of our time indoors during winter. However, ensuring we get our daily dose of exercise is super important to us as a family, and the dancing mat makes it possible for us.
This mat is wireless and lightweight making it easy to transport if you are visiting grandparents over the holidays or for birthday parties, etc.
The music is fun, cheerful, and upbeat making it easy to get your body moving.
10. Doodle Board
This is a super cute and neat gift idea for toddlers or kids to let them explore and tap into their creative side. Whether it’s doodling or storytelling.
11. Piggy Bank
If you are big on teaching kids about finances and money management at an early age. I believe this is the perfect gift to introduce the idea of saving and money management to kids at an early age.
12. Science Kits From National Geographic
OMG, I can not tell you how many science kits we’ve gotten from National Geographic. My kids love science experiments and kits from them never fail to disappoint.
For Ray’s birthday last September, we got him the rocket and circuit marker kit and oh boy, we all had fun sending the rocket up and building circuits. Such a fun way for kids to learn while playing!
My daughter, Sophia enjoys the science lab and gravity maze from them.
13. Telescope
I’ve mentioned this soooo many places on my blog before, however, I cannot exaggerate enough how much my kids and spouse love space. As a family, we love looking at stars and constellations and many of our conversations around the dinner table or long car drives revolve around space.
So if this sounds like your family or you have kids who love all things space. This telescope is so worth the investment. The view quality is amazing and it’s quite easy to use and assemble. Plus it gives our dining area a nice aesthetic, lol.
14. Karaoke Machine
Shopping for a songstar?
If so – then this Karaoke machine needs to be in your shopping basket!
15. Little Girl Jewel
This set comes with 24 super cute rings that will make little girls go crazy over.
You can gift this as a stand-alone gift or if you have multiple little girls you can break it apart and use it as stocking stuffers.
16. Makeup Kit
Okay – so, let’s stay on the topic of fashionista and pretend play for a bit!
I absolutely love this set because it has non-toxic makeup that little girls can play make-believe with, without me having to worry about breakouts or what’s getting inside their skin.
The tones in this set are subtle and easy to wash off after play.
17. Magnetic Tiles
If you don’t have a set of these magnetic tiles yet for your toddler, I highly recommend you get a set for them this Christmas.
I got a set for Ray when he was 3 years old and to this day he still plays with them. (He’s 8 now.)
These magnetic tiles have helped him tap into his creativity by building airplanes, towers, houses, etc. But, more so help him master confidence and patience.
18. Clothes and Slippers
We all love wearing cozy clothes and slippers during the winter months. Consider getting something cozy for your littles to wear over the next few months. Be it pajamas, sweaters, or slippers.
19. Hot Wheels
For the last 5 years or so, I’ve been stocking hot wheels cars into Ray’s stocking. These little cars make the best Christmas sock stuffings, in my opinion!
However, if you are looking for a big gift for little boys you can consider getting one of these bigger sets.
20. Art Kits
This art kit has everything from pastels to pencils to paint and sketchbooks for your little artist.
21. Remote-controlled Cars
Ray is obsessed with Lamborghini and all things fast cars. This is definitely one of those items that I always hear him asking for or going crazy over. If you have a little boy who loves cars – may I add not just cars, but fast, sports cars. This remote controlled Lamborghini will surely make him happy this Christmas,
22. Remote Drone
If you are shopping for an older kid this Christmas – a remote drone might just be the perfect Christmas gift.
This drone makes the perfect tech toys for kids and is fun and engaging.
23. Gift Cards
If you are shopping for kids who have it all – well gift cards to their favorite stores or gift certificates to amusement parks that will allow them to get an experiment might just do the trick this Christmas,
24. Subscriptions
I briefly touched on subscriptions above when I shared Bookroo and HelloBible.
Subscription boxes and plans are some of the best Christmas gift ideas for kids.
