Parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles are always searching for the perfect holiday gift – the one thing that the kids will completely go nuts over.
After ten years of selling thousands of toys, my advice is to not swing for the fences, but find a gift that the kids can play with and get pleasure from for a long time. Find a present that parents will appreciate which will keep the kids busy. Here are some ideas:
Magna-Tiles Magna-Tiles are a perennial family favorite. Magna-Tiles are magnetized shapes (squares and triangles) that fit together so simply that children can build nearly anything. Magna-Tiles are out there in solid colors and translucent colors. Like blocks, Magna-Tiles tap into a child’s innate creativity. You may be amazed at how fast children get into these building blocks. Parents tell us they love them as much as the children do.
Doll Houses Doll houses are always a favorite toy over the holidays. All the kids crowd around the house to participate and have fun. It’s nearly magical.
Plan Toys is well known for making high-quality wood toys. Each of Plan Toys’ wood dollhouses can accommodate play with many kids. The dolls and furniture are sized for a child’s little hands. Every house has open walls and wide floor space so kids can simply reach inside.
Two of the most common houses are the Green Doll house and Chalet Doll house. Each comes with five rooms of furniture. The Green Doll house has several eco-efficient options such as a wind turbine, solar panels and a bio-facade. The Chalet Doll house is styled after an alpine mountain chalet. It consists of 2 units – one with 2 floors and one with 3 – that can be configured in any number of ways. Each floor will become its own room.
Wooden Trains A wooden train set may be a great gift any time of the year and has a method of transforming a kid’s play in a way that few other toys can. A classic interactive toy, wooden train sets encourage open-ended play, a feature missing from many of today’s battery-operated toys. Youngsters respond to their own creativity and thought instead of following the prompts of a computer chip.
