It’s a splurge item, to be sure, but if it’s seeming like your kiddo’s passion is bikes, everything about this one will set them up for success. Since then, half a dozen of her friends have sprung for the same one. I can only imagine.ħ) Commencal Ramones Bike // Chris is what you could call an expert on all things wheeled, and this is the exact bike we got Lana when she went to two wheels. A little lesson in patience and budgeting, and I cannot wait to see what Lana deems photo-worthy. Adorable.Ħ) Fujifilm Instax Mini // A friend introduced me to this idea: gift them the camera, and then provide a budget of one pack of film a month. A little destructive, maybe, but loads of value for the amount of play.ĥ) Smoko Haru Tuna Sushi Ambient Light// Lana’s been asking us to turn her beloved egg light up a bit at night, so I know she’d adore the idea of having the company of this little cutie while she sleeps. (Shipping rates for many small goods on IKEA can actually be really reasonable, too - totally worth avoiding the crowds.)Ĥ) LEGO Technic WHACK! Vehicle // I will always endorse LEGOs, and I love that this build results in a car that is actually robust enough to play with - and even crash. Stocking stuffer A+.ģ ) Ikea Felt Veggies // Our very favorite play food all comes from IKEA, including these veggies, this fruit basket, these cinnamon buns - and, as of this Christmas, this pizza set. Perfect little thing to pull out when I need 15 mins to finish dinner. It’s mesmerizing to look at for both kids and adults (I linked to my favorite color here, but there are literally dozens), and it’s not particularly messy.
Not only does it allow for play from all sides, but you can easily move it out of the way or to another area for play.Ģ ) Crazy Aaron’s Thinking Putty // Putty, not slime. The wheels, too, seem like a really smart addition. This one is actually surprisingly good looking, which is important since it’s not at all discreet.

I scoured the internet (and Lana’s own collection of pretty tightly edited belongings) to bring you plenty of Want/Need/Wear/Read gift ideas for the young kiddos in your life - let’s say 7-ish and under - all of which promise to offer their money’s worth in terms of either play or practicality (or both!).Īs far as stuff goes, you could do a whole lot worse.Īnd hey - when you’re done here, head over to our full page of holiday gift guides for more seriously cool gift ideas for all your loved ones (or whoever). This gift guide (now updated for 2021!) might be some of my finest work, friends. Something They Want, Something They Need, Something To Wear, Something To Read: Kids’ Edition She doesn’t need a thing.” But ultimately, they press me for ideas - and in the name of not being a total Scrooge-a-roonie, here we are. So when the time for gift-giving comes around and my in-laws or friends ask for gift ideas for the little, I’m not gonna lie: I’m kind of a stick in the mud. (Fortunately, she’s also got a decent sense of what it means to share those things with people who have less, but in the name of reducing consumerism in general, we could probably do without much of it in the first place.) We’re pretty conservative with the amount of things we buy Lana over the course of the year - if you saw my posts Gifts for the The Guy Who Has Already Bought Himself Everything He Wants and 13 Gift Ideas for the Ultra-Picky Guy, you know this is a pretty practical household - and yet somehow Lana’s still got more of everything than she’ll ever need. Hi, my name is Emily, and I’m one of those people who is equal parts obsessed with and terrified by the sheer amount of stuff that accompanies the holiday season - especially when it comes to kid stuff.
