Our gift guide was put together carefully focusing on products that help children develop skills, inspire exploration, encourage creativity, and of course loads of fun. Children enjoy playing with all sorts of toys which we think is great. However, it is also important to expand their minds and give them the activities they need to strengthen their abilities and grow effectively. Here are our top ten choices for gift ideas for children.
1. Little Passports. Little Passports delivers a travel adventure right to your door! Choose from the Early Explorers (ages 3-5), the World Edition (ages 6-10), or the USA Edition (ages 7-12). Each subscription will have your child rushing to the mailbox, waiting for packages highlighting a new global destination or US state. They’ll receive letters, souvenirs, pop-out models, activities, stickers and more. Inspire a life-long interest in travel, language and world cultures with Little Passports!

4. Osmo Creative Kit. Osmo makes games that merge virtual and physical play; if Osmo had a middle name, it would be "Interactivity." The Osmo Creative Kit uses interactive art tools in 3 creative apps: Monster, Masterpiece and Newton. Each app takes whatever kids draw and instantly brings it to life onscreen. The kit comes with easy-erase markers and a specially designed Creative Board that transfers what you draw into the digital world, exactly how you drew it! The drawings then become animation to take part in a story, solve a puzzle and more! Recommended for ages 4 - 12.
5. Dash & Dot. Dash & Dot are real robots that teach your kids to code while they play.
