[Ad- gifted products – Updated on November 4th, 2024 to add more gifts] When it comes to Christmas gifts, there are so many different and new toys out there. To make things a little easier, I have created another gift guide this year! This gift guide is full of toys and games that our household has enjoyed throughout the year. With a bigger focus on physical toys, instead of video games, it has been a good year for toys in our house.
Decora Girlz
Decora Girlz is a doll that feels ideal for those who are maximalists. These dolls have colorful hair, tons of accessories and just feel like so much more than other dolls. Robin is absolutely someone that loves playing with doll’s hair and loves wearing accessories herself, so she finds these dolls to be so fun! They have face stickers as well, so you can really decorate them.
ZhuZhu Aquarium
ZhuZhu Aquarium is aimed at being a sort of pet toy, without actually having to get a pet. The pets themselves are very affordable and you can purchase different playsets that give them toys and worlds to play within. Even without the playsets, you can watch these pets zip around, bump into each other, and have a fun time! If you’ve got cats, these are even more fun as your cats will likely attempt to hunt them.
Boogie Bath Duck
Bath time is always a fun time for kids, but it’s especially a fun time with a Boogie Bath Duck. This duck has a disco ball on the bottom of them, which has different modes to bring a bunch of color to your bath. The ball can be easily pushed in to change the mode and the colors are very vibrant. I also really like the retro vibes of the packaging as well. Available from giftrepublic.com
CMY Cube
If you’ve got a child who likes fidgeting with something, the CMY Cubes are a fantastic option. There is something mesmerizing about looking through this cube and seeing the different colors. It feels weighty too and is something fun to play around with! There are a few size options if you want to go with a bigger one or a smaller one for your child.
Crystal Art Buddies
Crystal Art Buddies are a fantastic mindfulness activity that do keep little ones busy! It’s sort of like paint by number, but instead of painting, you are sticking gems onto a design. There are always plenty of gems in the pack, so you don’t need to worry about losing some. Crystal Art Buddies also have a lot of licensed characters, so you will surely find one that matches your child’s interest.
Black Cat Warmies
Warmies is a brand of stuffed animal that you can actually gently heat up in the microwave, to work as a sort of warmer stuffed animal. In the colder winter months, having a warm stuffed toy to take to bed is a great idea. These stuffed animals come in a bunch of different designs, including things like avocados or ghosts. They smell amazing and are extremely soft, making for a useful bedtime toy.
Schleich Bayala Axolotl Playset
If you’ve got a child that loves playing with figures, the brand Schleich Bayala has a playset for you. This Axolotl playset feels magical, with moons drawn on the sides of the characters themselves. There are three figures within the pack, giving plenty of room for imagination and play, especially if they have other animals or playsets to play around with!
YummiLand Lipgloss Dolls
If you’ve got a child who’s interested in makeup, YummiLand Lipgloss Dolls are dolls that give you ingredients to build some lipgloss to match. You can mix the colors and scents into the lipgloss to create your own creation. The dolls themselves are also scented! They are cute, fun, and the added lipgloss keychain feels like a fun activity without it being too complex.
Pixel Petz
I swear, I had some sort of Robot Dog when I was a child in the 90s. Seeing Pixel Petz reminded me a lot of that! This robotic dog pet can learn lots of tricks, change their face, walk around on their own. It’s like having your own dog to look after that can learn and understand you. It’s a good tech-based pet toy that feels like the future and somehow familiar too.
TattooMeez
TattooMeez is a type of soft teddy that your child can personalize with tattoos! They come with a bunch of different tattoos, including glow in the dark ones, that they can easily put on the skin of their teddy with a bit of water. The brand itself is eco-friendly as the stuffing and fabric is actually made of recycled material, and it’s very fun for kids to put the tattoos on them.
Water Art
Water Art went viral on video content across the internet a while back and our children have been trying to make it happen with dry-erase board markers since. These kits are super affordable and ensure that you don’t have stains on your dishes as they have the proper marker and spoon to use to create the floating water art! It’s a great gift for those who like crafting or science experiments.
Photo Creator Instant Pocket Printer
The Photo Creator Instant Pocket Printer allows your child to create photos, drawings, stickers, etc in their phone using an app, which can then be instantly printed out and used in the real world. It’s ideal for scrapbooking or those who like to make art on their phone and want to have it printed out. The app itself is very easy to use and the machine is ink-free, printing using thermal transfer, so there won’t be any messy ink cartridges to purchase and install.
