Christmas Ideas for Kids

Idea #1: LEGO® Star Wars™ AT-ST™ Walker

Price: $39.99

Kids can hunt for evil forces by building at AT-ST Walker, created by LEGO. This set offers an age-appropriate building experience for ages 8-14 with multiple accessories and minifigures to fight against enemies in the galaxy. Be forewarned, this may not be one of the best Christmas gifts for toddlers because of the many small pieces, which may pose a choking hazard for young children.

Idea #2: LeapFrog LeapStart Interactive Learning System for Preschool & Pre-Kindergarten

Price: $27.96

Unlike our first idea, this interactive learning system designed for kids 2 to 4 years of age is definitely among the best Christmas gifts for toddlers. Your youngster will be thrilled to use his LeapFrog to count and solve problems without it ever getting old. He/she can learn at their own pace in a fun, engaging manner, and that's why we have it listed among our Top 10 Christmas gifts for kids.

Idea #3: Disney Moana Starlight Canoe and Friends

Paw Patrol is on a roll! This fun and interactive toy set allows your child to help Marshall rescue Itty Bitty Kitty from atop the hardware store.

Suitable for children ages 3 and up, this is a great Christmas gift for toddlers as well as older kids.
