  1. I donā€™t have any kids to buy for but if I did I would certainly be using some of these ideas. They are great!

  2. Thank you for some fun family and older kid gift ideas — very helpful, Jennifer!

  3. Thanks for these wonderful gift ideas. I struggle to find something interesting for my Grands and these games and toys seem to hit the bill. Thanks for finding them. Have a Great Day!!šŸ§”šŸšŸ‚šŸ’›

    1. Glad these resonated Linda

  4. CathšŸ‡ØšŸ‡¦ says:

    Who doesnā€™t love looking for childrenā€™s gifts!? Some excellent ideas.
    Just a suggestionā€¦ if thereā€™s an independent toy store in your community, perhaps spend your money with them, rather than a huge ( but no doubt convenient) business like Amazon. Where I live, thereā€™s a great childrenā€™s wear and toy store which needs our business. Same goes for the independent bookstore . I can order in and pick up my purchases, and have a chat with the owners too. Small town perks.

    1. Agreed! I think the selection is why so many people shop online.

  5. I truly don’t mean to be a Scrooge, but I’m SO curious about the Elmerā€™s 10 Days of GUE Pre-Made Slime Variety Pack. (I’m out of touch with kids’ toys these days, plus I must have too much time on my hands to even be pondering this!) It says it’s an Advent Calendar, yet it shows 20 cups of slime… so what does 10 Days refer to? The box cover features lollipops and the name Sweet Retreat. The mix-ins look like candy sprinkles, but aren’t, yet it’s recommended for ages 3+. What little child isn’t going to want to eat this stuff? For the record, I checked out reviews and people give it good ones.

    1. I honestly can’t say because I haven’t seen it, but the reviews are good so it must make sense in person.

  6. Thank you for this great list. I have five grandchild between 3-6.

  7. Thanks Jennifer for your research. I’ve got 10 grandkids 1 – 9 and these ideas fit the bill. I can vouch for the magna tiles….GREAT present for age 3/4 and up.

  8. Great list! Iā€™ll be buying several of these for my granddaughters. Thx!

  9. These are all great ideas. I have 5 grandkids ages 2 to 8. These ideas filled all the age brackets. Thank you for putting in all the work!

  10. These are great ideas. I have a granddaughter who is 2 and is in between 2-3 toys and hard to shop for. These are some ideas I have not seen(Seek and find). Thank you so much!

  11. Thank you for the great list of gifts!

  12. So clever of you to offer suggestions for grandkids! Thank you; I see things my granddaughter would enjoy. Now, how about suggestions for my very hard to shop for son and son in law? Shopping for youngish men is impossible!

    1. I agree, I will see what I can find.

  13. Fantastic gift ideas!!!!! Iā€™m going to get the BS game for my adult kidsā€¦ā€¦.lol

  14. I like the octopus plushies. It’s like as mood ring, but better. Perfect for adults.

  15. Great list!!! Thank you!!!

    1. Iā€™m glad you like these. Theyā€™re fun!

    1. I love buying for my grandson šŸ™‚
