Can you believe Christmas is less than 2 weeks away? If you haven’t finished your holiday shopping for the kids yet, now is the time to place those last-minute orders so they reach you in time. I’m partnering up with Babbleboxx once again to share their Kids Holiday Gift Guide. Whether you’re shopping for a preschooler or teenager, I’ve got some great gift ideas I think they’ll love so let’s dive into it!
FOR THE CRAFT LOVER
If your kids love crafting as much as mine, these are a MUST! MY SIMPLE SEWING allows your kids to “sew” their own food creations and the finished products are beyond adorable. Marli made an ice cream plushie with her craft kit while Matea created the cutest pizza pouch which now houses her favorite crayons. I had to help Matea sew her project together, but Marli had no problem doing it by herself. The activity kept them really engaged, helped build their fine-motor skills, allowed them to use their creativity, and most importantly was so much fun!
MY CLOTHESPIN ZOO is another fun craft activity for children ages 4 and up. Matea, who is almost 3, was able to do this with my help, and she LOVED it!! We created 10 animals and learned fun facts about each one as we went along. Afterwards, we created our own pretend zoo and I kid you not. It kept the girls entertained for hours! I guess that trip to the San Diego Zoo several months ago really helped!
FOR THE HARRY POTTER FAN
If your kid is a Harry Potter fanatic, these items would make wonderful gifts. The FUNKO 5 STAR ALBUS DUMBLEDORE POP FIGURINE comes in a window displaying box with Fawkes the Phoenix making it perfect for creating their own magical story telling moments. Be sure to pick up this beautifully illustrated hardcover edition of HARRY POTTER & THE PRISONER OF AZKABAN: THE ILLUSTRATED EDITION at Deep Discount for the perfect pairing to the figurine. From now until Jan 2, 2019 midnight CST, enjoy 10% off site wide with code ‘BABBLEBOXX’ at checkout.
STOCKING STUFFER TREATS
It’s hard not to fall in love with The Grinch, even if he’s a grumpy ‘ole soul. In fact, one of the girls’ favorite movies is How The Grinch Stole Christmas so THE GRINCH PEZ GIFT TIN would make for such a fun (and tasty!) stocking stuffer gift. The limited edition PEZ candy gift set includes a 6-pack of Sour Green Apple Candy along with 4 dispensers of The Grinch, Cindy Lou, Fred and Max. Do you have a favorite character?
FOR THE BOOK WORM
Marli started reading this year and now all she asks for is books to read. If your child loves a good funny story, THE INTERRUPTING CHICKEN AND THE ELEPHANT OF SURPRISE is definitely one they’ll keep coming back to. Written and illustrated by David Ezra Stein, this book is a follow-up from New York Times bestseller, Interrupting Chicken, and it’s sure to give you a good laugh. It’s such a great read-aloud book and one that is quickly becoming the girls’ favorite bedtime read. Enter the promotion code ‘CANDLEWICK’ at checkout on candlewick.com for a 25% off all books. *Only valid to U.S. purchases.
FOR THE TECH SAVVY KID
Last, but not least, is a great gift for the tech-savvy lover. If your child enjoys STEM activities, this kit is a must! The CIRCUIT SCRIBE DRONE BUILDER KIT is an all-inclusive kit that gives kids and teens the ability to create and fly their own drone. The setup is so easy and once complete, just connect it to your WiFi on your smart phone and watch it go! Parents, just a word of caution. You might end up having even more fun than your kids on this one. Have fun!
