Best gifts for kids

Mega Pokemon Block Set

Anytime you go with the Pokemon brand, it’s going to be a hit with the kids. Take comfort in knowing that this Mega Block set isn’t only fun but helps young teens develop lifelong skills through building and puzzle-solving. 

Hexbots Wall Crawler Gecko

The Wall Crawler Gecko is a hit this holiday season. Once it’s set up, it’ll set off to climb the walls with the help of a remote control that’s perfect for a child’s hands. It’s fun and new but still a simple toy for any kid over the age of three.

Barbie Dream Besties Doll

Barbie is trending again this year with a new line of dolls called the Dream Besties. These friends not only have their unique interests and personalities but also the classic Barbie accessories that come with most dolls. You can give one Bestie or the whole collection to any child age four and up.

Ontel Star Belly Dream Lites Unicorn

This isn’t just any stuffed unicorn. The Star Belly has the technology to light up a kid’s bedroom ceiling with stars. It’s a great toy for little ones who might be afraid of the dark. Not only can a child cuddle in bed with their new toy, but they can watch the star show and fall gently to sleep. It’s interactive, cute and comforting.
