Top 5 Gifts For Kids
1) Talkie Voice Chat Plush Toy
Toymail: Talkie Voice Chat Plush Toy - Bitsy a Smart Bat
2) Recycled Magnetic Locket
Handcrafted indie style locket (1" diameter) made from recycled steel auto parts. Adjustable 30" long ball chain. Set includes 3 interchangeable lid designs. Packaged in round metal tin and tucked into natural cotton drawstring bag, perfect for gift giving or storage. Wish Design/Six Cats
3) Coordination Game - Travel
This travel-sized balance toy was created as a rehabilitative tool to help hone fine motor skills—and it does it in the most fun and challenging way. The objective? Neatly stack the disks. That might sound simple, but it takes concentration and coordination to get the unpredictable, rotating magnetic bamboo discs to line up just right.
4) Dreamimal™ Plush Comfort Animal Pillow
These comforting creatures introduce a new bedtime ritual for children. Each night children are encouraged to write down their hopes, dreams, and aspirations on a blank "dream wishes" card and place the card into their pillow before enjoying a restful night’s sleep.
5) Quarto Wooden Puzzle Board Game
Quarto is a stately-looking game that relies on your powers of observation. Easy to understand and quick to play, the goal is to identify commonalities in game pieces to place four in a row. The twist? Your opponent selects your pieces. Crafted with wood, it’s a treat to both play and display.
