Top 10 Gifts for Elementary School Kids

As kids go through elementary school, they are learning about friendships and who they are, especially figuring out what their particular interests are. Here are my top 10 favorites for the kids 6-10 that are educational, and fun.

1. Pretend play is HUGE for kids this age. It helps keep them active and stir their imagination. Melissa & Doug is a favorite for these. https://amzn.to/3KO9J9j
2. Our family has always loved board games. This is a great way to get in some family time, and teach kids about following directions. This is one of our favorites, but if you would like more suggestions, let me know. https://amzn.to/3Rpy4WO
3. Arts and crafts are perfect for rainy or snowy days, and often just for quieter play. Here are some ideas for stocking up on your kids’ craft supplies. https://amzn.to/4bWSBKN
4. Legos and other building toys are great for building dexterity, and they work perfectly for both playing on their own and learning to play together. https://amzn.to/4epIpft

6. Dolls and their accessories make another perfect solution for pretend play. https://amzn.to/3KJjXYK
7. Some kids this age would prefer to play with action figures instead of dolls. These allow for the same level of imagination, just in a different form. https://amzn.to/3VkXk1H
8. Whether the kids you are buying for are in the lower end of elementary school, or the upper end, science kits are a great form of learning toy that often leads to hours of fun, as well. For 5-7 year olds: https://amzn.to/3RoRAmc. For 8-10 year olds: https://amzn.to/3xgM12r
9. Sports and outdoor play are very popular with this group too, but if you live in a place that actually gets cold and snowy in the winter, sometimes it is hard to find something that work year around. Here are several options, including some that can be used inside. https://amzn.to/3xnRcxy
